underwhelming?

there's about 100 more acts to be added

I wanna go, last year was rather spiffy


I am

thinking of going to this agin. It was aceness last year.


I'm going

Just a mate and myself at the moment, should be others but couldn't be bothered to wait for them before I bought tickets.

Not bothered about the current lineup at the moment as it's possibly the only festival I want to go to this year.


I've been going

for three years. It's a great little festi, if only for Hoegarden and stunning women everywhere! You also get to see some pretty esoteric acts. 4 days can be a little intense though. Still going.


More acts!

The Raveonettes - Bonde Do Role - Ellen Allien - Roni Size/Reprazent live - Hardfloor live - Fujiya & Miyagi - Dj Friction - Sebastian - Alborosie & Spiritual - Lady Saw - Takana Zion & Manjul - Shantel & Bucovina Club Orkestar live - Lagwagon - Born From Pain - The Incredible Punish Yourself Pictures Show - Cult of Luna - Oxbow - Voodoo Glow Skulls - Asva - Earth - Visonary Underground & Dr Das - More Rockers Show - The Bug feat. Warrior Queen, Flowdan (Roll Deep) and Ricky Rankin (Roots Manuva) - Gilles Peterson - Cocoon - The Notwist
Plus 150 still to be confirmed. This is starting to look really good.


I read Ricky Rankin

as Ricky Martin


The Bug

featuring Ricky Martin. That would be fantastic.


LAGWAGON!!!!

Amazing.


It's a tasty line up

but the festival is so woefully organised that I don't think I'd ever go again.


Really? I went in 2006.

And apart from Jackson & His Computer Band being on really late everything was pretty smooth and sweet. May well go again this year.


I agree with this,

I went last year and it was the worst organised festival that I have ever attended. The cheap ticket price did not make amends for this inadequacies in organisation


I think it was just the mental demand last year that did it

aside from the whole getting into the site the first day I didnt really have any complaints, aside from maybe some more water taps. But it was the first year it had sold out and they had about 20,000 people turning up on the site trying to buy tickets. I think you can camp a day earlier this year or something.


tonnes more!

BATTLES - Shout Out Louds - The Whitest Boy Alive - The Enemy - Michael Rose & Dubline Band - Birdy Nam Nam live - Svinkels with live band, djs and visuals - Beat Torrent - Wax Tailor - Autokratz - Brodinski - Punks Jump Up - Cazals live - J D Samson & JO Fateman aka MEN (Le Tigre dj set) - Dub Trio - Mad Sin - BB Brunes - AqME - H2O - Merauder - Drumcorps - Harvey Milk - Future Of The Left

Also Ice Cube, Tiga (& Turbo Recordings Night) and Richie Hawtin (& Minus Records 10th Anniversary night)

tasty.
