Mogwai headlined first year
But since then the festival has grown in popularity and they can afford bigger main stage headliners now.

OK USA!
Friday - Bright Eyes
Saturday - Subtle or Sage Frances
Sunday - Modest Mouse
I'm laughing quite a lot at the idea of Sage Francis headlining
He's a rip off Saul Williams!
this is turning into 'name your favourite bands'
Don't get me excited already please.
FRIDAY
Weezer
Ryan Adams
SATURDAY
Kings of Leon
The National
SUNDAY
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Broken Social Scene
..
yyys could be a possibility - especially now the album is appearing on scheduling..
I'd take that to the bank;
throw in The Rapture, The Walkmen and My Morning Jacket. Plus let Sebastien Tellier do a full set and I reckon we're away.
Plus a bit more stuff you can dance to, and a bit of hip-hop (as if!) - lets say nice safe but still brilliant stuff like The Roots and Blackalicious.
hmm
The Killers
Razorlight
REM
!
Obelisk
FRIDAY Radiohead
SATURDAY Broken Social Scene
SUNDAY Portishead
Uncut
FRIDAY The Shins
SATURDAY The National
SUNDAY Minus the Bear

probs be:
Friday: Conor Oberst
Saturday: Modest Mouse
Sunday: Mogwai
Erm, maybe :/
You all have awful taste
Friday
Beastie Boys/Wu Tang Clan
Saturday
Sonic Youth
Sunday
Portishead
On the other stages: Mission of Burma, Aesop Rock, Dinosaur Jr, Earth, Band of Horses, Dananananakroyd, The Evens, Gang of Four, SFA.
This will be 2009, not 1995
(in reference to the headliners)
2009 is shit. There is little to no good new music coming out of this country
No one if the UK is being adventurous or straying away from the fold.
And also, hardly 1995. More like 1992-1993, when 36 Chambers and Ill Communication and Dirty came out. Although 'Portishead' did come out in 94.
Still old music>new music
You'd have liked Reading 94/95 Phil!
Yeah, it's the closest thing I've ever seen to a perfect lineup
Along with Reading 2000.
Good choices, but I've seen all of those headliners
on multiple occasions!
The Knife and Devo headlining the Uncut on Friday and Saturday.
Flaming Lips headlining Obelisk Sunday.
