Cheers for checking that out neil.

Any idea if there are to be any more additions to main stage or not?

The alternative stage was annouced in two stages last year

Middle Of July for the Spoken Word headliners and the 8th August for the rest of the acts (along with the Thursday night entertainment)

BBC Introducing stage was announced on the 30th July last year

im guessing we will get then

28th July - BBC and the stages all finished

11th August (maybe the 4th) - Alt Tent

Not sure why people are complaining at this stage. The bands lower down the bill are never going to be large acts. I'd rather Noah and the Whale than yet another Kerrang poster boy band playing lower down.

On the subject of Noah and the Whale I'm personally not really a fan. Thre are a number of recent folk rock/folk indie bands who have emerged (the other notable one is Fleet Foxes) who by all rights I feel I should like, but just can't get into. I think the problem is for me that folk indie/folk rock music is perhaps the most cliquey genre I like (IE I just stick with the classics). So if it's not as good as Neil Young's 'Harvest' album, or Neutral Milk Hotel 'The Aeroplane Under The Sea', or The Byrds 'Sweet Heart of the Rodeo' or early Ellott Smith, I tend to just shut up shop.

Then again, that bloke from Fleet Foxes' voice really does get on my nerves...

Never heard of The XX. At first I thought it might be Xerox Teens, but it seems it's a completely different band.
