Fraid I dont have the money for a festival as such, would still like to do one at some point.

Line up looks good indeed, though why Franz Ferdinand are being put as a headliner is beyond me, they sound good on CD, fair enough.  But live the just seem just such as boring and unispiring act.  Very weak live.

I would have put audioslave or placebo in their place out of the current list if it was my choice.

Au contraire, I thought Franz were wicked last time I saw them live.  And I dont even like them that much :S

yes they do but they also play virtually every year and Ive seen them 3 times ;)

kaiser chiefs = overplayed so much that Im sick of them, saw arctic monkeys last year, they were ok, but nothing special, and im not a huge fan of the rest of those. Id sooner see the flaming lips :P
