Wow. They are really scraping the bottom of the barrell this year. The View are an awful, awful band and the rest of those announced aren't much better. So much for FLC and all the other better suggestions. Apparently it's all mainstream and obscure indie and emo. No room for proven entities

[frazzy27]

I'm super happy that jacks mannequin are playing. Made my day.

[problematique.]

A day to Remember, Atreyu, The Blackout, The Living End. I'm happy

[Ignus Reef]

I'm pretty disappointed with the additions. Out of the 40 odd bands that were added, there's none that I particularly want to see - might go and see The Joy Formidable, Magistrates & Golden Silvers though.

[RichieSpenno]

So Lightspeed Champion is gonna clash with Bloc Party

Apart from him and Marmaduke Duke it's pretty shit.

[zeppelin]

disappointed with sunday main additions

who are mariachi el bronx =S

liking the addition of soulsavers on FR - might watch them then end of KOL... or just stick around for marmaduke

and i've heard good things about pulled apart by horses

[Ignus Reef]

I find it quite strange that Lightspeed Champion has dropped down to the FR stage after playing halfway up the NME stage last year. I guess he hasn't really done anything since then though.

[fat_man_joe]

What a freakin' let down!!!

[tomisnothere]

the view are awful. i had to stand through their set at v festival last year and they were really terrible.

[rexclark]

Piss poor headliners but I'm quite happy Lightspeed Champions playing.

Just realised, there is not one headliner I want to see on the Friday.

I hardly know any of these new additions. La roux are terrible aswell.

[zeppelin]

so will the next announcement be next monday (after DL) or is that too soon

i guess they could just add FNM

who we thinking for dance? i thought la roux woudl be in there

maybe justice or pendulum to headline it?!?!

so confused with how festivals announce bands!!! haha

[Lithium05]

Mariachi el bronx are just the bronx playing some mexican music.

[bartycrouch]

ATREYU! ATREYU

A Day To Remember!

Jack's Mannequin!

F*CK YEAH

[kittycat100]

very excited about Living end! maybe this time I won't forget to go see them and will get to see the whole set!

[rexclark]

There's a good few bands I've heard good things about. I quite like Amazing Baby and Hockey but I still feel it's quite poor. The only good thing is at least La Roux isn't playing the Dance stage.

Hopefully the Dance stage will be announced soon. Unless it's something quite special (which I doubt) this will be the worst line up since I started going IMO.

[thomasowen]

Best Lineup for this stage I've seen since I've been going - Soft Pack, Bear Hands, White Denim, Big Pink, Marraduke Duke, Lightspeed Champion etc

Great news!!!!

[Budweiser]

:/ where the f**k is 36 Crazyfists going to go .

[pigshair123]

[Silent Alarm]

Grammatics!

Pretty much all gonna clash. Shame about the blackout clashing with Prodigy.
