will.i.am not playing again, no sign of John Legend, Neon Jungly, Fuse ODJ :(, The Lumineers or um Prince

no repeat bookings for Paloma Faith, DJ Fresh, Scoutin for Girlz, Laura Mvula or Jessie J although i think there's only the four artists playing two years in a row this year? so maybe less surprising

To be honest I was a little disappointed with the line-up. There is enough there for us to go, but I'm holding out hope there will be a few more big names announced in the next few months. Dizzee, Ellie Goulding, Prodigy, these sort of acts.

And compared to last year we got tickets really easily (no website crashes, etc) and also every website still has tickets. I'm hoping slow sales may force V Fest into dipping into a reserve to get a few more acts as looking last year after the initial announcement we got very few additional big acts.

Reverend and the makers - new album just released and normally get a good crowd at V, only reason I can think not being on the bill is it would have been their 3rd year in a row

The Enemy - another good mtv stage act, new album this year, not booked for anywhere as far as I can tell

Travis - performance of the weekend last year, relatively new album out, back in people's minds, expected them to be here again this year

    • There’s a few in there which could go either way or I’m not bothered if I miss but think that’s now be pretty set.  Few rubbish clashes like Kasabian/Loyle plus Reytons/Pixies/CMAT but I’ll head with the lads to the most popular one.   (And yes no Byrne or Twigs, just can’t into either)
    • I saw somewhere they were advertising Lewis' day as him live on Glagow Green and only mentioned Amy Mcdonald and CMAT as support, 0 mention of the festival  I completely agree this will probably be the last one which is a shame because the first 2 seemed so promising and now its turned into middle of the road rubbish with acts you can see everywhere else  Anyone know if the BBC are covering it next week as it'll be fascinating to see how full (or empty) it is  
    • Did anyone catch Viagra Boys last night? A rollicking good set, with a little more free jazz than I expected.   if you’re up early, Walabi is doing a super job in the Cupra Pulse. There till six.

    • They really dropped a bollock on their lineup this year. They went with Richard Ashcroft because he did well as Oasis support - But realistically, you're not getting 50k people in a field to hear the 4 or 5 songs they know at like £70+ a ticket. Can't get my head around the Kasabian booking, either. Finsbury Park was a bold move for them, and yes it sold out, but I think you're more likely to see people make the journey to London if they want to see them rather than Glasgow. A second similar capacity show was always going to be a big ask for them.
