How are things on Mr Power's payroll?

Seriously, that's a decent enough looking 2nd and 3rd stage festival line-up. When does the main stage get booked?

They are two stages. But it is a big let down for the sat (fratellis and pigeon detectives are epic fails), altough the sunday is very good.

Right. Still seems obscenely expensive. i am not saying that there aren't some solid choices on there but it's sooooo unimaginative - all a bit "rock" and not a lot else. What really gets me is this endless banging on about how it is for music lovers only. I mean obvioulsy V and Carling have made festivals branded but does it really take away from the enjoyment of the music??? And as for the whole one experinece thing - the same. Granted those two have a few corporate packeges on offer but for example , a Glastonbury ticket is a Glastonbury ticket. And if anything , this festival is branded - Vince Power! It is just another festival - and a pretty ordinary one at that from where i am sitting.

Agreed Fragtellis are shockingly awful live I only went to see them for the chelsea dagger song but they were awful.

Im a bit of an indie kid (a bit!) so I dont think its bad but its no were near what they made out it was going to be. But in others eyes people may think its wonderful.

It says there is another BIG announcement to come, but there big and ours I think are to different things.

Once again sorry about the stupid info but maybe if we keep my fingers crossed The who may come back.
