FRIDAY

N.E.R.D. - Good to have a boogie to and a few pints

THE ANSWER - Dunno em yet, but heard some positive murmurs

SATURDAY

SEX PISTOLS - Interesting...Could be amazing or dogs**t. Or a bit of a weird non-event. Expecting the latter.

IAN BROWN - Can't wait - one of the best festival acts around, especially if he liberally sprinkles some Roses tracks...

IGGY & THE STOOGES - Awesome energy - gonna get the beers in and get psyched for King Monkey watching these.

THE ZUTONS - Probably the most fun you can have at a festival. Top.

KATE NASH - Guff when I saw her last, but perfect for sitting off in the sun to.

LILY ALLEN - Get well soon - another one will be cool sitting off in the evening sun with some bevvies.

JAMES - Looking forward to these guys. Hugely underrated - it's not all about Sit Down

STARSAILOR - Ace at V a few years back - perfect time for them to be on as well.

SCOUTING FOR GIRLS - Oh my god. The ACTUAL sh*ttest band in the world. EVER. Apart from maybe Hard-Fi. And the Feeling.

NEWTON FAULKNER - Pretty inoffensive

DELAYS - Not fussed

LOCAL BAND TBC

Youre a bit of a tool arent you PC.

Why spend so much money for a festival you think is 'crap'?

There is to many singer songwriters tho.

[Lauz_Abbott]

the line up this year isnt the best one they've had but the music isnt everything....i go because of the atmosphere too and because we always have such a good time!!

[russellelly]

Scouting for Girls are brilliant and I won't hear of otherwise.

Saturday's weak, especially the top slots. Otherwise it should be a cracker IMO.

Call me a tool to my face on the island tough guy not from the comfort of your keyboard.

The line up this year is crap in my opinion. But last year we had the Stones. A couple of years back we had REM.

[pc18568]

[Lauz_Abbott]

totally agree...love REM but find the police incredibly dull

[melmite]

Welp, just listened to Newton Faulkner's album and all I can say is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I gave him a chance but he came over as mediocre, all of the tracks just seemed to meld into one long song.

Next on the new list....Starsailor, will let y'all know.

BTW who will be joining me for Mojitos in the Bacardi bar when the Kooks are on? They were sh*t in the mid-afternoon slot in '06 and they're still gonna be sh*t in an early evening slot.

[Lauz_Abbott]

the kooks playing this year too?
