Alright everyone,
So what you guys thinking so far? Some good fillers and definately must see acts..Nero, Chemicals & Laidback Luke will be something else!
Any idea when the arena headliners will be announced? ( I can see from previous announcments thinking and actually confirming are two very different things!)
Who you all is hoping to be announced?
For me Nero will be the highlight...some filthy tunes!

Ive literally got must see acts all across the weekend. Chem Bros being the biggie. As for arena headliners im sure two are already confirmed
Friday- Groove Armada
Saturday- The Cribs
Sunday- ? (Somebody that's probably already been announced just like last year when we all speculated as to who would be the next big name to be announced when it was co-headlined by two names already revealed in Chase & Status & Dave Clarke)

Yeah 5 or so must see for me so far, just hoping for something out the bag like Aphex last year for the Sunday...Main stage wont be the place for me (or majority of the people) come Sunday late afternoon!

Not really any must sees for me, although i really want to see weatherall and carter, but i can live with that.
As I've said before and will again sometimes its the acts at the bottom that make your day. Woodhands for me last year was just awesome playing to a tent of about 40 people. If i can discover a gem like that again then i'll be happy.

Must see's for me:
Friday - Erol Alkan, Katy B. Would see Skrillex, Nero, Clouds, Modeselektor, Groove Armada, Zane Lowe if there wasn't any clashes too.
Saturday - The Chemical Brothers, Magnetic Man, The Japanese Popstars. Again, would also see Laidback Luke, Magda, Ivan Smagghe and Jesse Rose.
Sunday - We Are Scientists, Boys Noize, Simian Mobile Disco, Beardyman, Sub Focus. Again, would like to see Fake Blood, The Wombats, The Cuban Brothers.
So theres a lot I want to see on the line up. Good times

Acts i hope to catch across the weekend. Likely case is i'll catch a small fraction of them, although i do have to mention that I caught 20 acts somehow last year so it is possible to catch quite a lot and still balance it out with getting total messed up at your campsite
Friday
Erol Alkan, Zane Lowe, Nero, Skrillex, Kasabian, Dj Shadow and Katy B
Saturday
Chemical Brothers, Laidback Luke, Magnetic Man, Ivan Smaghee, Funk D'Void, Gary Beck, Harvey Mackay
Sunday
SMD, Fake Blood, Beardyman, Optimo, Derek Carter, Andrew Weatherall

I'd expect somebody a touch bigger than that like Deadmau5 but not sure.

I think Friday is an awesome line up, can't wait for Groove Armada, Two Door Cinema Club, Nero, Skrillex, Modeselektor, Erol Alkan, Clouds, Jackmaster. Then on Saturday - Chemical Brothers, Laidback Luke, Annie Mac, Magnetic Man, Jesse Rose. Sunday I can't wait to see Jamie XX, Sub Focus, Beardyman and a few others..
It would be good to see a few more added to Sunday, who though? Richie Hawtin, Carl Cox, maybe Afrojack?

The only act that really has a chance and is big enough to play above boys noize, smd and fake blood is a Digitalism live set. They are releasing their new album end of June and playing London on the 13th June... Here's hoping!!

Hawtin would be good as the tent headliner. Digitalism are decent too, although they haven't released anything since the last time they played, but if they are taking out a new album I could see them playing pretty high up.

Digitalism would be good.. although when I seen them in 08, i was super gutted when they cut them off half way through 'Pogo' because they went over their time!

The must see acts for me will be, Erol Alkan, Mark Ronson DJ, Chemical Brothers, DJ Yoda, Optimo. Plenty of other acts I really want to see but these are the acts I'll definately be trying to see, clashes permitting.

I'm sure come June a few tunes off their album will be on the radio.
