Right im sick of all the f**king moaning on here, this thread is for people who like the line up to discuss, if you want to moan go post in the 99434646346 other posts with moaning in it.

Some gems in there. The Offspring, Pulp, MADNESS, Rise Against, Frank Turner also a lot of good bands id go see. I think ive counted 18 id go see which is great for a first announcement for me

The big band I cant believe isnt there is Mumford and sons. I thought theyd be a shoe in but hey its still good.

[bennyk]

Agreed. everyone's moaning. I counted just under 20 give or take a few. I'll be there no matter what.

No Mumford for me is a big shock though

[Dirty Boots]

Only two acts I'd go out of my way to see, Jane's Addiction and Death From Above 1979. Plus they are playing in the tent.

Wouldn't mind seeing a few more on there, such as Interpol, Pulp and the Horrors.

[Hart Attack]

Friday main is great, I'll say that. I don't understand why there is so little else to appeal to that sort of taste across the rest of the weekend, though.

[Leeds_Brett]

I think im going to have to have a listen to some of the bands ive not heard of.

Also anybody heard any of OFWGKTA - Ive just read their wiki and they sound very interesting

[Mariner]

The general consensus is that the line up is the worst in years. Whichever forum you go on.

Just sayin.

If you mean Friday leeds I assume its because the lock up will be Saturday/Sunday

[SoTheSagaBegins]

Hear Hear!!

17 acts on there at the mo which i'll be seeing.

Mumford not on there is a big shock too, I had them down as certs when they weren't on the V line up.

[mooseman]

Yeah I like it as well. Its not the strongest line-up ever no and it does have the whole MCR/30STM as headliners that alot of people are going to hate. But from the first announcement I've got 5 bands a day that I want to see. With the lock up, festival republic and more nme to be announced I'm quite happy. I won't be buying a ticket tonight but hoping to get one cheap before the fest.

OFWGKTA was a nice suprise as I guessed that they would be there.

Good Saturday and good Sunday.

Rubbish Friday, but some stuff in NME and Horrors. It's all good.

[Jackmypie]

Who am I meant to see on sunday when MCR and Beady eye are playing? Can't mumford or someone replace Beady eye

Pretty much my thoughts exactly. Friday's pretty awful (Offspring apart) but my main concern was that I'd have no-one to watch whilst MCR were on. I'm perfectly happy to watch the Horrors, so that's fine.

[mrtourette]

I TOLD YOU MUMFORD WOULDN'T PLAY!

The Strokes
Pulp
The National
The Joy Formidable
The Pigeon Detectives
Seasick Steve
Frank Turner
The Offspring
Cage The Elephant
The Kills
The Vaccines
And why the hell not...Madness

Read my mind, will go to the main for Offspring, kinda glad the headliner/sub is crap, means i can watch the horrors safe in the knowledge im not missing anyone else. Saturday and Sunday are awesome. Really happy to see The Kills on the bill, come to think of it, anyone think Jack White will show for the Special Guest slot, him and Alison with The Dead Weather?

[Guess Who]

So far i'm liking the look of all all days tbh some really good bands on NME and main on each days. But stand outs are Rise Against, Two Door, Madness, Muse, Strokes, Offspring, won't mind seeing MCR, few smaller ones on early on the NME are good to.

[jump]

Madness      , 2manydjs, Seasick Steve & Frank Turner.

[SOAD]

I'm really really really really chuffed!!!

[Couchy]

Anyone want to come see the Midnight Beast with me? Shit The Strokes are playing.

[rexclark]

PULP!!!!!!!!!!!
