Bestival 2011

[Zacko]

Excellent news! Bestival has a f**king brilliant lineup, can't wait.

[fullfathom5]

The La's - oh yeah!

[Dave The Hedgehog]

'Tis a good announcement - happy about The Growlers; could do with some more Psych music.

well just got the news that bjorks headlining, gobsmacked as I didnt think she would do a big outdoor festival this year.

was at the manchester gig last nigt and was out of this world and is a genius.

will be interesting on the reviews though(wont be there as im on family holiday that same week), as I cant see how the current set up would work on a big stage. I presume it will be more of a "typical" band set up and a more career spanning set.

either way her new stuff is awsome.

Rob said that she'd be doing some songs from Biophilia but her set will be mostly made up of greatest hits. I don't think it's very risky for an artist like Bjork but it'll probably keep a lot of people unfamiliar with her lesser known songs happy, which is fair enough.

[Dave The Hedgehog]

just dont hold your breath for oh so quiet lol.

I couldn't give a monkeys about what Bjork plays to be honest. She's not my cup of tea and I'll probably check out DJ Shadow instead so whatever. I just hope those going to see her will enjoy it. Same with Pendulum really - a lot of people have complained about them but there's always going to be something alternative to check out instead.

[Dave The Hedgehog]

DJ Shadow is on an hour after her, so you can see both

[thetime]

Woooooooohhhhhhhhhhh why??!?

*hangs head*

Might just go and mope about in the swamp shack.

How do you know this sort of stuff? Is it readily available info? I'm desperate to get some sort of idea about clashes as I'm looking forward to seeing far too many acts, would be good to know who I'm probably going to have to miss!
