Worst line-up yet?

[scccott]

bar leftfeild there is nobody original and unexpected. poor attempt so far in my eyes. rockness is becoming more and more every year just annie mac, soulwax and friends playing in a feild. too predictable, neeeed to get better acts if rockness wants to compete with other festivals. just me or????

[Elbear]

There's a lot of people that feel the same, But Im impressed by the line up. They seem to have gotten better acts for the arena's this year, and minus Fatboy Im happy about the booking.

Disagree.

Anyway which acts would you advise?

[tweemo freak]

Tbh, i love the 2010 line-up so far and can't wait 4 it!

[Kyelo]

dave clarke, green velvet, felix da housecat. good dance acts, not shite like fatboy slim for the 40th time.

[pancake70]

I think alot of people need to stop moaning for a small festival like ours we have done really well. ok we have got fatboy slim back wasnt expecting it but for alot of people who havnt seen him hes guna be a highlight of the summer and as for leftfeild and the stokes i have 2 say no more. only that it would of cost alot of money to get them too . And give it time theres still loads to get annoucend jim knows what hes doin

[scccott]

I reckon Felix may still anyway, he would come under a predictable friend of Anni Mac

[Hebn2themix]

The line-up overall is good but theres nothing thats got me super excited this year compared to previous.

Add Erol Alkan, Louis La Roche and Tiga and i will be excited

With those sort of wants I think you should go to TITP.

RockNess doesn't want anyone like that and tbh, I feel the same. Felix might have a shot, but the other two are dire.

As for the line up, I love it!

I didn't expect The Strokes, Vitalic (cos I thought TITP would steal him), Enter Shikari and so on!

[Poleski]

titp steal him? more like rockness are stuck with him. picking him over dave clarke is like picking the wombats over the rolling stones.

[theampersanddevil]

I think you should reserve judgement until the whole line up is out but on the whole I'm pretty happy with it and I think it will get a lot better.

[Piratebhoy]

one problem i feel is that the taste of Rocknessers is generally Electronic music, and we have had some of the best in the business!! So when you look at the talent we have had over the last 4 years, we have been properly spoiled.

in the last 10 years, there has been a lack of consistently good dance acts that can join the groups of Chemicals, DP, Underworld, Prodigy etc... so we are now in a bit of a period where the good acts are not quite superstars... if you get what i mean. Even the newer world clas acts liek Basement Jaxx and Soulwax/2Mnay Dj's have been up to Loch Ness.

There is very few headline electro acts that we havent had yet. Off the top of my napper i would think Faithless, Justice (of which we have half of this year) and maybe Kraftwerk would be superstar status, that could be headliners.

We have had nearly every properly good and well appreciated electro act, so there is going to be years where people will have to take a chance and go see acts they wouldnt normally think would be good.

(hopefully someone gets what im trying to say!!! ha ha!!)

Come the summer we will know more about who we want to see, and will be dancing with smiley faces!!!

So you're looking for your average Slam tent line up then?

Fantastic album and they are amazing live.

[rexclark]

yes pretty much, just cant be f**ked with t in the park for many reasons.

[irons]

I think it's a decent line-up so far. First time at Rockness so I'm not hit by any repeat acts that some people aren't happy with. I've never even see Fat Boy Slim so I'll probably have a look.

No huge stand outs for me bar The Strokes, but I'm happy with Enter Shikari, Leftfield, Ian Brown, Friendly Fires, Doves, and Dub Pistols. Still plenty more to come too.

[adustlandfairytale]

My 1st time at Rockness this year so can't really say it's a bad line-up. But who thought The Strokes or Leftfield would be playing! I'm very excited

Just found out finish my uni course on 4th june so a week later it's Rockness
