I wouldn't pay to see one of them headliners.

Yeasayer, Foals, Crystal Castles, Holy Fuck are the only ones i'd like to see on the whole of the bill. How shit.


:(

i was praying for les savy fav.
i hope it still happens somehow.
SMD, digitalism, holy fuck, adam green, mystery jets is good though.


Blood Red Shoes,

Blood Red Shoes, Blood Red Shoes.... Lightspeed Champion Crystal Castles Hadouken! :)


Agreed that the headliners are shit

But i enjoyed last year quite a bit and they were shit then as well. I'm praying Les Savy Fav play too!, they haven't announced bands for the new carling stage yet and if they were headliners i would combust into flames. :)


yeah

last year was fun, i hope this year is just as good.

And as for headliners...they're always shit - at any festival you care to name! I can't remember the last festival to have great headliners. But alas, i am only 18. How can someone so young say words sad as these :P


Adam Green,

It's beginning to look very good... thankfully!


YAYAYAYAYAY

JUST YAY


Yeasayer, Holy Fuck, Crystal Castles,

The Music, RATM, Queens of the Stone Age.

Oh well, some good bands at least.


I was hoping the lock up tent

would be amazing...in my opinion, it is not.

It does have a pretty good line up, just most of it isn't my taste. Goldfinger? Set Your Goals. Really?

At least we get Fucked Up, Cancer Bats, and The Loved Ones with a really shitty slot.


Set Your Goals

are potentially the most boring band I've ever seen. They play really tired basic punk rock, and they have some weird giant/skinny guy singer dynamic which I found disheartening. They join the scrap-heap along with NFG and the other mentioned.


Sunday looks incredible

Yeasayer in the early afternoon to start, before heading over to the Dance Tent to work my way into a sweaty mess with Holy Fuck, Crystal Castles, Chromeo, Simian Mobile Disco, DIGITALISM and CSS, then emerging for fucking Metallica?

There x100.


is it just me

who thinks it all looks pretty shit?
maybe the dance tent is a bit of an exception but there is nothing twee or swedish enough for my liking.
One day I will find someone to go to ATP with me, ONE DAY


so so shit

wheres dillinger, wheres battles, wheres youth movies, wheres weezer, wheres death cab, im gonna have to take some many intoxicants to make up for this shitty lineup


are slow club

not on this year's bill? won't the album be out before then?


let down

was looking for the lock up to save things. theres about 3 bands id wanna see. and ive seen two of them before. suckass.

'carling' stage better be good


it usually

has some of the best acts on i find


Fucked up, Alkaline Trio, H20 (always used to

be great live, but haven't seen them in about 9 years!) and Pennywise who put on a good show, but much like with SOIA I've seen them far too many times now (10 at least).


well!

must say i'm really impressed with the line-up this year.
i completly agree with Caliban420 with the sunday line-up but then there's the music and conor! the main stage on sunday would probably appeal to me if i was 15 again.


Fucked Up

Cancer Bats nice little additions.
But yeah, still not going.


I cant wait!!!

Cant believe how good the line up is again, missed last year, so im well down
