We need some 'fresh blood' as well.....surely it can be just the usual suspects going? There's a handful of regular posters (even ones who aren't going eh lakeland), a handful of occasional posters and a handful of rare posters.....come one all you 'watchers', join in the fun!!

[Mr_Grump]

Back on topic, Im also slightly concerned that Scroobius Pip is second down? I think we might get one more big name?

[Mr_Grump]

ahhhhhhh why you bringing me into this! my posts are intelegent and informative!.....

......and as for not coming if the hand brake gets her own way

[LOCHLAND5]

It was a compliment in your direction lakeland.....the fact that you are contributing to a festival you're not attending.....or has that now changed???

[Jacko450]

no change yet....................... but shes working on me, the sentence "just cos you have thrown your rattle out of your pram it doesnt mean i have to suffer" hasnt helped her yet! Shes still got 3 weeks to work on me though!

no way am i camping though, its going to rain.

[Mr_Grump]

Looks like something's afoot.....the official website has suddenly been rolled back 2 months (latest news is the Riot Jazz lineup)....maybe getting ready for a new announcement.....

and lakeland, stop mentioning the "R" word

[kaytee...]

Has anyone ever got the coach from Manchester on the Friday? Just wondering what the traffic up there is like seeing as I can't make it on the Thursday now. Getting the train would be ideal but the prices have shot up since last year

I think Tim Burgess is announcing another act for his Tim Peaks bit too

[Billbones]

Friday looks thin full stop on the main stage pre-Maximo....Scroobious Pip, DJ Yoda and The Correspondents is all we have at the mo.....there has to be someone 'bigger' (last year we had Echo & The Bunnymen before The Cribs on the Saturday)

[ramragon]

i think there will be at least 6 main stage acts on the friday, could imagine mono lps being asked to play the main stage.

Crack is this 80s legend is playing

[dannyfletcher]

I also read it as lots of acts, rather than a big announcement. Always frustrates me when festivals wont release the full line up. Bingley has always been a bugger for that.

If Tim Burgess is making it to do some reading from his book, surely he can bring the rest of the lads with him. Of have i just imagined that he is doing some reading?

Would really top off a 90s tinged weekend. All it would then need for me is Embrace.

Well thought i'd put my first post here - really enjoyed watching you guys giving your thoughts over the last few weeks. My first KC this year as well as my little girls first festival. Normally do a couple of festivals a year - just realised first was 26 years ago !!

Really hoping for Kassidy on the lineup on Friday. Saw them a few weeks ago and were awesome

I'm with you on this one...my Spider senses tell me the Charlatans will DEFINITELY be on the Saturday before Dizzee.

Actually, thats a point...he's doing that diner thing and he won't be there Friday or Sunday as the Charlies have gigs those days.

[walkforever]

Hello chap! You're in for a great weekend! Even the weather forecast is looking up!

If the charlatans are playing a full band set and not that acoustic set they did last year I will be there.

Hey flaminglippy you still coming by train? How many of you are coming?

[Flaminglippy]

Our 5 year old wants to see Dizzie ! How do I censor his language like i do in the car ?

[LOCHLAND5]

I forgot about the acoustic set last year...worrying really as I saw it at the IOW as well.

Yeah, think theres about 6 of us...maybe more, maybe less (organising anything with my lot is bloody impossible)

[walkforever]

Just say 'Oi! You're 5 years old, stop swearing!'

Bit worried that I want to see the same act as a 5 year old...he is very good live though.

With all the noise and stuff doubt he'll be able to make out individual words anyway...especially standing near the back
