Fanthomas, the one on my avatar was from Do It Again/Get Yourself High but the one I think you're talking about is Clown Cherub Harmonies.
Incidentally,I've visted the festival 10 times now and the mud was as bad as 97. 98 was more watery mud and was a breeze in comparison to the Friday and Saturday, particularly getting around all sides of the Other Stage

I thought that it was a bit like the V Festival too this year in terms of the line-up. I mean, Beyonce! Howehhhhh!!!! This was the first year (out of 10 visits) that I hadn't watched a headliner on the Pyramid. (Can't abide U2 and Coldplay 3 times in 10 years is a complete piss-take, and I don't even mind them)
I also though that there seemed to be loads of knobheads shouting stuff all of the time. Whilst walking around the site. Before the acts. During the acts. After the acts. At the tents at all hours. Have a bit of respect for God's sake. I'm all for folk having fun but you have to draw a line somewhere. I was on the verge of sparking folk out many times. I'm putting it down to youngsters not being able to handle a drink.
One final rant, The Park stage is an absolute disgrace. You can see bot all, unless you are right in front of the thing. The mud was dangerous in many parts of it and I can imagine a few insurance claims heading to the festival organisers. It also doesn't help when security guards throw their weight around. It was hard enough walking in 3 feet of hardnening clay without some idiot security guard shoving you about. I saw this happen a lot.
Despite all this, I managed to have a decent time.

...a swap for Leeds tickets.
The tickets were bought for the wrong venue. Face value. Any takers?

1) The Wonderstuff. Simply awesome.
2) Madness
3) The Specials
4) Blur
Every band/act/performer I saw/heard were brilliant though.

The Wonderstuff. The Atmosphere was simply amazing.
Special mentions to...
Lisa Hannigan doing a vocal only performance of The Way You Make Me Feel. Beautiful.
Blur doing Tender
Shangri-La. The most amazing place ever. Completely astonishing!!!

Here's a theory. The amount of hits these websites have been getting is phenomenal. It makes sense for them to keep changing stuff so that we keep visiting them.
Also, there is no way of knowing exactly what is going to happen. There may be some strong winds that blow these clouds into the atlantic or the north sea.
Stop worrying, be prepared for any outcome and you'll have a good time!
We'll all have Swine Flu in the winter and the weather will be the last thing on our minds!!!

Defo The Stuffies, it's going to be superb!
I would watch The Boss but only really to get a glimpse of Sil from The Sopranos and listen to Hungry Heart (which he may not even play)
Red Berry Joy Town, It's Yer Money I'm After, Baby, Give Give Give Me More More More and Ruby Horse are all guaranteed an outing. Haven't even mentioned one song of Hup or Never Loved Elvis.
I'm buzzing like a sticky whiskered bee!

De La Soul
Placebo
The Pixies
The last one is a long shot but I don't see how the others can't be on after both being confirmed at one stage, then disappearing from the schedule.
I seriously hope it's De La. 20th anniversary og 3 Feet High... would suggest it is more than a possibility.

THE most important festival tip you will ever get. Rub this under your nose before visiting the bogs and all you can smell is the Vicks.

Quick question: How do we know that the Wonderstuff are headlining the Avalon? British Sea Power are also in the mix, for that stage and that day, and I was wondering whether that could possibly be higher up the bill?
Just a thought - perhaps the infomations out there somewhere and I've just missed it.....
-
They'll probably be at the Henley Regatta or preparing themselves for Wimbledon whilst fagging for the bullies at Eton.
I hope not. Proper dreadful!

I saw them last August at Stockton Riverside Festival and they were very impressive.
Shaun Ryder has sorted his act out and sounded pretty good.
I reckon you'd all get a shock at the sound they produce now.
-
Jens Lekman, though you could hardly call him a new artist.
Check this. Jens in a car park after a gig. The man is clearly awesome!

Theres 30 songs right there. Enough to fill 3 if not 4 (by todays standards) albums. Every single one is an absolute pearler.
Some people need to clean their ears out.

Calm yer skin down!
This was the reason I said just a thought.
If they haven't got a licence for music on a Thursday, I must have imagined watching The Levellers on the Leftfield stage last year.
The rumour is meant to be 4 headliners. 2 British, 2 American.
2 American announced (I'm aware Neil Young is Canadian)
1 British.
1 left on an unspecified day!
