Copey and the Aphex Twin as the first two names on the bill is almost impossible to top.
As long as they don't make the Twin play on that fucking stupid big stage next to Burger King - imagine how lame that would be..

er.
I don't think I've ever seen him not wear clothes...
He's a peculiar lad, but a really nice guy. He came round my house once and we watched Canadian sketch comedy show Kids in the Hall.
True story.
Confirmed but not announced...

Kraftwerk are 'in talks' but I'm not holding up hope.
