gotta say dizzee rascals the headliner i could give or take, puts on a decent show but never really been in to his music, think everyone plugged for example over him. Saying that friday night was always gonna be a difficult slot to keep me happy as its a genre im not really in to that much.

happy enough with vintage trouble as well

Glad to see the love for VT here!

It is one of the best lineups ive seen for a few years this, pitched just right - Flaminglippy is bang on - a festival with classic singalong songs mixed with new talent that get the crowd dancing is a win.

Right people - to your battle stations :)

Sorted for tickets. If anyones struggling using the KC site I went straight to Ticketline and their site is bang on at the moment. We got a good few of those between us, well happy with that. Surprised at Dizzee, I thought he was too big, like ramragon I can take him or leave him, but the kids and the wife like him, so I could be down the Calling Out that night.

When will tickets be sold by do you reckon? I'm waiting til I get paid to buy mine but bought an emperors field since I know they sell quicker.

Fairly pleased with the lineup so far but could do with a few new bands on the bill, I'll trust we'll get thag on the calling out stage though :)

Done,that was easy,done and dusted by 9.02am,can't wait now.but need a few more bigger modern bands i.e Vaccines,The Enemy,The Riflies,Sound of Guns, but not too big,otherwise you just get a massive crowd of chavs there for that one band. :sarcastic:

    • I guess we should also not underestimate that the Slowdive sound person is probably not quite used to open-air daytime performances in such a large, open area. 🙂 I imagine it's very different from mixing the sound in a tent. Plus, even though I was openminded about it at first - you never know how things might sound or work out in a different setting if you don't try - I just don't think their sound is very suited for this kind of setting, it really benefits from darkness and a nice light show and all that. Still, nice that they got to give it a try.
    • i agree, was really disappointed by the Slowdive sound (we were fairly close to the podium) also if you consider that for all other main stage acts i saw they got it perfectly right.
    • Thanks man for sharing your thoughts. I would say i generally agree with you and do agree people close to the podium should position themselves further back if they want to have full conversations and apparently are not interested in the music; to fair it is mind boggling these people are even there as chatting gets so much easier in the back field. That said i did not really have the same experience as you, front rows for example at MBV, Men I trust, Big Thief, NewDad, Slowdive, where really into the music.    yes i BBK is really high on our list but we just realized it is next year 25 years of Primavera so perhaps we do one more. 
    • When does the Thursday lineup get announced? I see they had Moonchild Sanelly and Young Knives last year, would be cool to get something along those lines again.
