When do you think the leftfield line up will be announced have seen some cracking stuff there in previous years. Also the Glade? Still a few more stages that have not been mentioned.

What I've been told about the Left Field is that there will be debates until around 3pm, then collaborations in a sort of hootenanny type style for a few hours and the some main acts in the evening.

They only have a 900 capacity this year so I expect they will keep things fairly low key with a few surprise appearences

Once I hear any more from my reliable contact I will post it here.

I see from the tolpuddle brochure that their marquee has been re-branded the Left Field Stage - so I suspect it's being running by the TUC this year which could put the emphasis back on socialism rather than the music.

Do you think Squeeze could appear on Left Field? If so it might push that capacity a bit.

Billy Bragg is booking ALL the bands this year... Reverend and the Makers, Billy Himself, Peter D, The Supernovas, Beans on Toast, and Frank Turner are the acts he said he has booked when i was at SXSW this year

I'd imagin Frank Turner will headline one night in there as his Queens head slot seems way to small given he's headlinning Brixton later in the year. Really would like to see Beans on toast.

Only 900? Is that big enough? I remember Mr Bragg playing Avalon one year, and there were about three times more people outside the tent than in it.

beans on toast usually plays a few times over the weekend, did an early afternoon slot each day in the greenpeace tent, a few late nights in shangri la etc, I think he just tends to play whenever he can, saw him at secret garden party and he just randomly went in tents and wrote his name on the line up board and hoped no one would notice the change, funny bloke

I notice Billy Bragg's website is due to re-launch today after having been offline for a few days - perhaps will include Leftfield details?

It'd be awesome if he could get Mongrel to perform.
