Awesome, First Aid Kit

Oh ffs they're supporting someone

Ryan Adams is balls though.

None of the new acts are very impressive at all and still no opening night headliner?

[the wonderwhy]

Yeah the twitter didn't make it very clear, I thought they were headlining

Yep, rubbish announcement. I'm guessing the first night is going to be someone like Foo Fighters if they're leaving it this late...

[dentalplan]

It's odd that Charlie Simpson has tried so hard to distance himself from the pop band stuff, even going as far as to turn down a fairly lucrative McBusted opportunity, and he's supporting 5SOS at their show.

[LondonTom]

I’ve won tickets for 5 Seconds of Summer, one plus one guest. Contact me if you’d like to buy.

That Beck and Jenny Lewis show should be a corker - shame it's the iTunes festival and it'll be w*nk.

People have already won tickets for the acts announced this morning. I imagine if you applied for ones like Jessie Ware or Gregory Porter then that's instant results. They might have shifted some more tickets for previously announced ones so check again. Still no Beck tickets in my inbox.

Why on earth did you apply if you didn't want to go? (Apologies if it's 'cant go' rather than 'not interested')

[justanothername]

Still no one worth the trip down to London for me yet

Lucky enough to have a friend give me a +1 but even if the crowd's shite, I just won't care - it's bloody Beck ffs! haha

But... but... Beck?

Get there nice and early to see Jenny and get a great spot for Beck and hopefully a decent crowd. Win-win-win.

I'll be sure to see Jenny - hoping for an Acid tongue heavy set!

[justanothername]

But... but... Beck?

Haven't found the time to listen to him and I doubt that if I did I wouldn't have gone for tickets as it still wouldn't be worth it to get all the way down there and back as I'd have to miss two days of sixth forum to go

[the wonderwhy]

The lineups so far are totally shit imo... I'm just hoping for someone like Royal Blood to swoop in and save the day

Supporting Kasabian I hope

[dentalplan]

Yeah I'd be surprised if they headlined a night as they've under an hour of material and I think all headline sets are 1.5 hour. Then again same can be said about Sam Smith.

[dentalplan]

Why on earth did you apply if you didn't want to go? (Apologies if it's 'cant go' rather than 'not interested')

To profit, I imagine.

[dentalplan]

Nah it's not gonna happen. You've got to think they're not used to doing all that time either and there's not really a lot in it for them, and they're off touring the US with Pixies for the last half of the month. Plus they're not really ones for extended songs or chit chat.

Supporting Kasabian is something I could definitely see happening but then again knowing Kasabian it'll get announced on the day that some local DJ will be opening for them.

[Dead throne]

If i don't win anything I'm just going to wait in line for David Guetta and Elbow

[ZXCVBNM]

What are the chances of one of the Headliners for the 1st or the 6th being Outkast?

[Babyquack]

I guess it could well happen seeing as they're in the country for Bestival around that time - iTunes have gotten Beck to do it after all so it's not a stretch of the imagination to see Outkast do it too

[fairy_]

We'll find out soon enough I guess - they're going to have to announce soon as it's only a week or two away.
