Lineup permitting I should be...the four of you?

Negative just 2. Weans going to electric fields only. They are boycottingKC due to increased costs 

Hopefully see you in the fields.

I wouldn't worry about it being your first go, I know people on here who have done it 4 or 5 years and are lucky to get more than 3 points.

 

as far as guessing the line up, the more smaller lesser known local bands you know the more chance you have of winning because that's where most of the points lie rather than guessing 5 or 6 that could headline

good luck

you saying my predictions are shite like? haha! probably more wishing than anything else, I see you're not staying on site this year mate, maybe we'll see you at the bar instead of the sweet shop this time eh! Pint?!

[ramragon]

I've done the same as you with predictions, way to heavy with bigger names. I never win ! 

Yep, having a 3 year old meant numerous trips to the sweet shop rather than the bar. The rest of the family are staying at the caravan park so ill have a half hour walk through the dark woods at the end of every night to get to bed. Still the comfy bed and warm showers will make up for the walk. I'm sure there will be a few bar meet ups rather than the sweet shop !

Yeah the chemicals or faithless would be excellent and im not really a fan of dance acts. I'd make the effort for either of those though

Agreed. Never seen faithless.

hope we are not building ourselves up for a fall.

tonights announcement.

" Your first headliner is Frank Turner returning to the fields. Stay tuned folks. More to come in the weeks ahead now go get those tickets only £150 *unless you're coming Thursday "

* including post and fees nearly.

[ramragon]

I'm sure if neil thinks it's a decent line up then it probably is. I remember him being impressed with the line up the other year when they had elbow, James,  the vaccines and the Kaisers headlining. Although he wouldn't tell us who was playing before the announced he said we'd be happy.

 

Will we be happy with tonight's announcement neil ? I know the bands probably won't be your personal taste but you know what's a decent line up and what's crap ! 

[Mr_Grump]

If anyone has PJ Harvey (don't think anyone has) or Ryan Adams or Future Islands (I've seen them mentioned on here) then you might want to amend...all three have been announced as festival exclusives for Green Man.
