I've got a MASSIVE list of bands I want to see, as it always the case with EOTR. Excellent value for money in my case.

All on the list, with some being more important than others:

Midlake

Beach House

Tindersticks

Mark Lanegan Band

The Low Anthem

John Grant

The Antlers

First Aid Kit

Jeffrey Lewis and the Junkyard

Perfume Genius

The Acorn

Alessi's Ark

The Deep Dark Woods

Deer Tick

Delicate Steve

Dirty Beaches

Driver Drive Faster

Francois & The Atlas Mountains

Hannah Cohen

I Break Horses

Lanterns On The Lake

The Pictish Trail

Pinkunoizu

Porcelain Raft

Sleep Party People

Stranded Horse

Toy

Trailer Trash Tracys

Veronica Falls

I wonder if they had problems finding a third headliner.

Although it's by no means an issue for me, the bands definitely are a bit smaller this year, especially when you consider that in 2010 we had Modest Mouse, Yo La Tengo and Wilco headlining but with a smaller capacity.

It's still a brilliant line-up though, I had a look at the line-up and there are 47 bands I'd be interested in seeing. It's going to be a clash nightmare.

Plenty of bands I want to see:

Grizzly Bear Grandaddy Midlake

Beach House Tindersticks Dirty Three

Mark Lanegan Band Van Dyke Parks

The Low Anthem Anna Calvi Villagers

John Grant The Antlers

Alabama Shakes Jeffrey Lewis and the Junkyard Robyn Hitchcock Perfume Genius

Willis Earl Beal

Deer Tick Dirty Beaches

I Break Horses Lawrence Arabia Peggy Sue

That's without having listened to most of the bands further down the bill yet; I'm sure I'll turn up some more good ones.

It's an excellent lineup from my point of view. Just seems like there aren't as many big names (but I could well be wrong - anyone disagree? SweepingTheNation - you seem to have a good grasp of how popular various acts are?)

Where does it say that NDH is a 2500 capacity festival?
