Why didn't AFI come back to Trees post-pandemic? How big do you want your festivals to grow? Why do you announce bands in waves? Is booking two sets overindulgence?

Talking 2000trees with Frank Turner Jun 27, 2024

Show notes

Fresh from selling out Ally Pally in hours and a successful tour Stateside, Frank Turner joins 2 Promoters, 1 Pod to declare his love for all things 2,000 Trees.
But before he takes the stage for a SEVENTH time at Upcote Farm, he discusses what it takes to tackle America, his "woeful" attempt at being a promoter for Botch's first UK tour and gets James flustered with some exciting Million Dead developments.
Enjoy.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

The Download Debrief Jun 20, 2024

Show notes

Gav and James took a road trip to the big dog of UK metal festivals, Download, for an all too literal dirty weekend.
Swamp conditions aside, we discuss the best and worst sets, our take on the Barclays sponsorship protests and what can go wrong when you take an innocent photo of Pantera's crowd from the top of a ferris wheel and post it on the internet.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Farm to Festival Jun 13, 2024

Show notes

This week's pod is James' emotional rollercoaster: from opening up about a serious health scare, being "pissed off" with a rival festival, to his passion for fence posts and playing invisible Minecraft... this one has it all.
He also explains the challenges of turning a sheep field into a festival site where you can watch The Gaslight Anthem and invites YOU to get involved.
We. Go. Again.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Download's Kam Haq joins us to lift the curtain on the workings of the UK's biggest metal gathering.
What's life like at the top of the ladder, all Champagne and cigars at Live Nation HQ? Or is it the same headaches and hassles with billing, booking headliners and clashes as the rest of us mere mortals suffer?

We go again, every Thursday morning.
