[kevsmith]

[kevsmith]

hurts will never come home if i dont see these i have been raving so much about them

[paolo1980]

Morrissey, Katy B, Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip, U2, Beyonce, Deacon Blue.... Hurts and Vaccines

Is that OK?

[Mardy]

Rex, Paulo that Guardian guide thing today only mentions Dan le Sac, Scroobius Pip seems to have gone missing from the list

I'm all worried now.

Hooray! Panic over, just asked him on twitter

Scroobiuspipyo

@pwwebb yeah it will be both of us.

Twitter is f**king ace, eh? Imagine that, you can just ask a band/musician/artist/whoever a question and they'll reply. Astonishing stuff.

I think the Correspondents are playing on the G stage in the afternoon on Sunday, but last year they also played in the pussy parlure and Shangri-La at night - my tip is watch them on a late night session... They'll no doubt let us know their movements in advance of the gig though.

Bright Eyes, Kloot and BB King all on at the same time ffs!

Dry the River, Guillemots, Primal Scream, Stornoway, Anna Calvi, Warpaint, Tame Impala, Maverick Sabre, James Blake, Cherry Ghost, The Eels, Joy Formidable, Metronomy.

Can't decide between System 7 & Kool and the Gang!

I suppose the only really must see, that would make me cry if I miss it, would be Maverick Sabre.

[kaanypooch]

U2, TV on the Radio, Chems, Tame Impala and QoTSA as Ive never seen any of them live before

[nikkic]

Here's the best tip I can give..

See

"The Correspondents"

They are playing in a few places around the festival this year I think - I accidentally saw them last year in Shangri-la and they blew my little socks off - Best band I saw that year by a country mile (I missed Thom )

In case you're wondering, they are kind of like a fusion of 1930s Swing, hip hop, and Jungle. with added spandex.

Oh and there's a trampoline and a running machine. I'm saying no more.

Just see them, I promise it'll be a highlight.

[ukslim]

Biggles Wartime Band are tremendously entertaining.

[Flip-Box]

Wu Tang Clan, DJ Shadow, Freestylers, Stereo MCs, Kool and the Gang, Jimmy Cliff, Aloe Blacc and since this thread, The Correspondents!

[Wooderson]

As I said it will be one of the singular moments in my life to experience another full hour of big buildups going "oooooooh-ooooooooooooooooh!-OHHHHHHH!!" with the Kaiser Chiefs.

Superb.
