Gav and James took the stage in a PACKED Elephant In The Bar Room Stage at ArcTanGent for their second live outing, only for the "curse of Johannes" to strike just as they were warming up.

But it takes more than a full power outage to stop this pod.

And if the show keeps growing at this rate, it might just become a "real job".

We go again, every Thursday morning.

As we near the end of a summer of chaos, James prays the wi-fi holds up from a campervan in Fernhill Farm to tackle the most pressing of fan questions.

What is our favourite Metallica record? Are payment plans and risky business strategy? What's the story with noise curfews and would James rather cancel Trees or ATG if he had to?

We answer them all in our fifth Q&A session.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

ArcTanGent's 10th birthday bash is almost upon us and we're in the mood to party.

Co-hosting from a campervan in Fernhill Farm, James talks us through the "holiday mode" site build, where Spiritualized appeared from at the 11th hour and some last-minute shuffles with band cancellations and replacements.

And we're joined by the man, the myth, the bassist of Bossk, Mr Tom Begley, fresh from TMing Converge, to reveal the band's grand plans for their two sets next week, and the highlights to catch in between.

If you didn't think you could be more excited about ATG, you're wrong!

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Gav and James dust off their old budget sheets and company accounts and crunch the numbers of running festivals over the past two decades.

How is it possible that in 2024 James paid more for diesel than the ENTIRE bill for Damnation 2005? 

And it costs how much to have bins emptied!? 

We get in about pounds and pence. 

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Fresh from a successful 2000trees festival, Gav and James hit us up with a breakdown of all things that went off over the weekend. 

They talk Live Podcasts, Merch, Hot Sauce, Toilets and even a bit about bands!

And in true form, they decide to do it on opposite sides of the world via an iPhone and Mexican Wi-Fi, We Go Again...or, Nosotros vamos de nuevo!

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Gav and James break free from Zoom for the first live 2 Promoters, 1 Pod show at the brilliant 2000trees.

And yes, there were towels.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Stand in boss, Bri, reports:

They’ve tackled wi-fi dramas, festival set-up demands and even drink issues but they’ve still managed to record their thoughts for this week’s pod.

You asked about gender equality, Biffy Clyro playing b-sides and their favourite bands of 2024.

And they answered.

Today the first 2 Promoters, 1 Pod live show happens at 2,000 Trees.

If you can be there. Be there.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

Recorded over a five-day stretch with limited wi-fi at Upcote Farm, Gav and James persevere with a Plan B podcast tackling some follow-up topics raised by listeners and tales of trying to book Ed Sheeran for £75.

And discuss Outbreak festival's successful return to BEC Arena, backed by an army of hardcore fans.

It's our Frankenstein pod. We went again, and again, and again... 

We go again, every Thursday morning.

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?

We tell you, in the fourth of our monthly 2P1P Vs The People Q&As.

We go again, every Thursday morning.

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.
