frankblack isn't qualified to speak for me but he's pretty much hit the nail on the head. I'm actually considering getting a cheap ticket off ebay now and going. I reckon I can get one for less than a ton. A weekend on the piss in the campsite with the occasional foray to the arena would be worth it at that price. Oooh the banter :)

hang on, all you've done is slated the lineup from word go but for less than a £100 you'll happily sit in a campsite. By the sounds of it, the distance would make that occasional to a much longer stint.

See, I'm thinking the same for Leeds but I'm not going to pay £100 when the only things I want to see is enough from start on friday, sat from about 4pm and realistically by that time i could probably not enter the arena till 5:30 sat and sun. I'd finish at the main stage at twin at half 4 and not really care until 5:45-ish and I don't think twin will deliver on an huge outdoor stage yet

The TITP party atmosphere is worth paying a reduced price for a ticket, people could easily have a great time with their friends sitting about a campsite for the whole weekend, not my cup of tea at a festival but I imagine theres a few that have done it

The distance from campsite to arena isnt enormous so going down for a few acts and back isnt a total mission either but I suppose that matters where you camp

going acts acts that have done that, its pretty much putting them at sub level but on a stage better suited. Which is my reason for them not there. Iow has but they are headlining at the same uk fest that has one confirmed tuts header and possibly 2 but i have nothing that backs that up but i think foals would be i good choice, i don't like them but a lot do. Latitude is a lot smaller and iow being across the water can bump acts a bit more than most, they're undercards aren't always the strongest althou I'll admit for these days Friday is strong althou the topping band probably has an influence in that.

Back on topic, been listening to frightened rabbit all week and really looking forward to seeing them, they are like frank turner before he got pish.....

Sorry to all the fanboys on here but everything after poetry of the deed sucks farts from dead chickens.....

Four simple words FFS the defence rests....

They are not a arena sized band here.

So they're last tour that sold academies as big as Manchester and London's Roundhouse were like gold dust. To be honest dude, if an established sub band at a major festival can't sell a few thousand tickets while performing their debut album then something is majorly wrong. Foster The People did that and subbed NME Stage last year, you getting the gist? By the way, these are academies, not arena's. People are talking about them possibly going on to sell their 1st uk arena tour out later this year for a reason.

In UK fest terms, I can't really ever see QOTSA ever breaking the ceiling to get a main headline spot, not for the bigger fests anyway. They are one of the standard solid/dependable act that bookers will always call to put in the sub spot for a headliner that is similar to them or on a stage opposite a headliner that is different from them, nothing more than that really, and I say that as a fan. It might be different in Europe n such but their festival landscapes are very different to ours.
