I'm fairly sure I've seen the Beastie Boys on one of the old posters. Might have been early 90s, possibly the last year Nirvana played

Edit: after a quick wiki they headlined in 1998

As I've been going since 1991 - I know for a fact that these bands have definitely not played regardless of whether I like them or not, no matter how big or small they are -

REM

Korn (altho Jonathon Davies did appear on stage with Marilyn Manson when they played below Metallica in 1997)

Orbital

Leftfield

Daft Punk

Belly

Jay-Z

Levellers

Outkast

Massive Attack

Mega City Four *

Portishead

Propellerheads (altho one of the guys did do a DJ set on the Wall Of Sound day in what was the Warped Tour / Dance Tent on the Sunday in 1997)

Royksopp

Sigur Ros

Sugar

The Sundays *

30 Seconds To Mars

* = only 2 that I'm not 100% certain about

On the amusing side I did have a look few some of my yellow posters and found the following -

2003 in the Dance Arena we had Scissor Sisters & Just Jack (!!!!)
