Just had a look at the www.szigetfest.co.uk site to check out the prices and stuff of the tickets - but does anyone have any idea what 'FESTIVAL WATCH Official payment device Sziget 2012' might be? This isn't something we're gonna need to pay for our drinks, is it? :unsure:

Hey,

I've been to Sziget a few years back, with Exit Festival just gone and both are amazing in their own ways! ...

........

The last night in Belgrade was spent in an apartment block where a room had been converted to a bar 3 stories up, you name your favourite spirits and there would be a cocktail created for you. Porn plastered all over the toilet walls and a building full of friendly locals all there to have a drink and enjoy!

Flights booked.

If anyone from England is still to book, check out Wizz airlines from London Luton. Seem to be the cheapest at the moment.

I was literally in that bar 2 weeks ago, so surreal!!! Although lots of bars in Eastern Europe seem very surreal haha, one of the most being Hambara in Sofia.

But anyway, back to the apartment block bar in Beograd, we were taken there by someone from Green Studio Hostel which is very near the train station and a 5 or 10 minute walk from this bar. You could always ask in there (or probably most hostels) if you can't find the address before you leave.

So did anyone see the post on szigetnews.co.uk about the acts plays in USA at Outside Lands over the Sziget weekend.

Metallica, Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Foo Fighters, Jack White, Stevie Wonder, Beck, Sigur Rós, Justice, Regina Spektor, Norah Jones, Skrillex, The Kills, Dispatch, Passion Pit, Grandaddy, Big Boi, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Andrew Bird, Explosions in the Sky, MSTRKRFT, Portugal. the Man, Dr. Dog, The Walkmen, Alabama Shakes, Fitz and the Tantrums, Amadou & Mariam, Reggie Watts, Sharon Van Etten, YACHT, Zola Jesus, Tennis, Die Antwoord, Thee Oh Sees, Tanlines, Caveman, Of Monsters and Men, Father John Misty, Tame Impala, Big Gigantic, White Denim, Yellow Ostrich, wallpaper., Trampled By Turtles, City and Colour, and Two Gallants

Looks like everyones favourite rumour is on its way out now. Shame about Franz, Bloc Party, The Kills, Justice and Sigur Ros as well. So I'll say maybe The Cure, Noel Gallagher's HFB, The Killers and Florence ATM will be added for big names, Deadmau5 as the dance act.

So, are we saying that the above are unlikely to be playing - no Franz plonky plonk Ferdinand - phew! ;) On the other hand, I wouldn't be too chuffed to see frigging Florence as a headliner either - unfortunately, it's beginning to feel inevitable - because she seems to be headlining just about every festival in Europe this summer :(
