I know this is a music forum, but blink twice if Michael Collins/Buzz Aldrin is on the line up 

I hate to tell you but Michael Collins died in 1922.

No wonder he stayed onboard Apollo 11 then

So should we prepare for disappointment, or for a nice surprise?

TBH Bluedot have always pulled off a decent lineup given it's only a young festival in it's 4th year - I'm excited to see what they pull in lower down the bill and what they are doing on the Thursday (although suspect Hacienda Classical but who knows?!)

Happy with that announcement, loads of new stuff to check out too - win win!!! 

[Guy Incognito]

That's outstanding 

[kagey]

Jon Hopkins for the win

Happy with the headliners but not really familiar with the undercard. Anyone you'd recommend?

The Lucid Dream if you're into your Psych/Acid Rock type stuff, also TVAM.

[kagey]

Kate Tempest, The Go Team, Henge

also this is the first wave of announcements, there's usually a second wave closer to the event

I know this sound a bit mad, but I'm really looking forward to finally seeing 808 State

Great line up! John Grant!! 

We went a couple of years ago and it’s a top little festival. We now have a 6 month old (1 by the time of the festival.)  wondering if anyone else has took a baby here and what it’s like.

Sunday night is Anna Calvi > John Grant > New Order 

Jeez

[robskyd]

Another solid line up IMO. Great headliners and plenty I'm not familiar with so looking forward to getting some new music.

TVAM, Ibibio Sound Machine, the Go! team

Headliners are great. Not totally mad on the undercard but it's a decent start.

I am not going for a ticket till I see the line up. Am at Kendal the following week so it would take New Order or Hot Chip to get me to Jodrel.

So now that both are now confirmed, are you going??

Absolutely ?

Very good lineup there, might go to the Saturday if it stacks up nice. Also pretty sweet to see my mate's name on the poster

GoGo Penguin clashing with New Order will be upsetting if thats the case
