Is it too early to start speculating/requesting bands for next year. My two penneth worth are

From the past

  • The Charlatans

  • Belle and Sebastian

  • The Levellers (always great for a festival)[/

The folk bit

  • The Imagined Village (again) and/or Billy Bragg

  • Jim Moray

  • Kate Rusby (I know she played last year but she's great)

The world bit

  • A return of the Dhol Foundation as they were fantastic

  • Soweto Gospel Choir or someone of that ilk

and of course the silent disco....

....please, NO Pronghorn - The Wurzels without musicianship!!!!!

Whatever happened to that Welsh Lass - Duffy, I think she was called - tipped for superstardom - Wychwood as her launchpad, then?

Agree with Kate Rusby and those two ace guitarists that swore like troopers - Rodrigo y Gabbywhatsit

Ash Grunwald, Michael Wookey etc. etc.- god, these lists always teeter into yawndom.....

I'd like to put in a quick shout for Face the West. Saw them last weekend and they are utterly brilliant. Loud, Celtic style music you just can't help but dance to.

Another band who would be worth checking out are The Dodge Brothers. Sort of skiffle type band. Saw them at Larmer Tree earlier in the year and thought they were great.

Teacher: ' come on children, if The Grate Denini has been to the last TWO Wychwoods, hands up if you can tell me how many he has missed!'

Well I'm chuffed I got one of my requests thus far (the Levellers). I saw the imagined village last night which made me want the Dhol Foundation to play even more. However I'd also love Duotone (aka Barney Morse-Brown) who is also part of the imagined village - his album is amazing.

Finally saw the Unthanks in their new line up recently - they would be fabulous, as would Jonny Kearney and Lucy Farrell.

Also great to see the Beautiful South on the line up! It's going to be a great festival again!

Last year was my first Wychwood (no virgin jokes please) and if we could get Bellowhead back, I'd get up off the sofa and jump around like a loon. Rodriguo y Gabriela would be a great crowd puller. The Beat were FANTASTIC, if you could get more high-energy-two-tone-madness (intended) I'd get up off the sofa and pogo like a loon, again.

A nice radio 4 comedy voice like Arthur Smith (who was on all too briefly last year) would be brilliant for the more, shall we say, mature audience. I love Sandi Toksvig! (I know, I'd be spurned, I mean her wit. You are awful.) Comedy-wise, Mr B the Gentleman Rhymer went down a storm! We might lure him back with an offer of free Pimms.
