Festival season is only a few months away and now is the time the bands and ticket details etc are announced and us punters decide which field we're spending a week sleeping in. So who's going where, Who do you want/not want to see, What band rumours have you heard and any other festival randomness! We're going Download again this year Booked tickets already, mainly on the basis the its almost cirtain AC/DC are playing (that and last year was amazing).

I was thinking Glasto and Leeds/Reading.
Glasto as it's their 40th anniversary couple with next year they're due a year off i think owuld be a quality line up - U2 have already confirmed and have read that durring world cup matches, their will no acts playing on the 2 main stages - whihc sounds good
Also strong rumours that kasabian and KOL to headline V - might tempt me go there instead of Leeds

V festival for me, gone every year for the past 4 years and always have a great time, and if the Kasabian KOL rumours are true will be even better.

I go V festival every year, have done for the last 5 years. Last years was at its all time low. My birthday fell on this weekend and luckily this years aswell but unless there are some names like KOL and kasabian and some decent indy bands like The courteeners or the rifles like 2008 then i'm going to leeds im afraid. Already got my ticket for global. Thats my first year at this one, anyone ever been?

Leeds once again, got increibly tired of V basically copying T4 on The Beach and chucked it in a couple of years ago after Muse, and even that was just dayticket. Leeds rumours so far as I've heard are. Green Day, Blink182, MCR, Gorrilaz, Justice, Daft Punk, Muse. Think Green Day are pretty nailed on to be honest as are Blink. Daft Punk is massive outside shot, Muse possible just depends on when there stadium shows sell out really.
On the note of KOL et al. that was said above had to say I went to see them last year at Leeds and have never, ever, EVER been so bored in my entire life. Arctics were also incredibly bad that weekend as well, left half way through. Only Radiohead saved the weekend for me with a show that was just mesmerising.

download announcment tomorrow supposedly mettalica, van halen, acdc and soundgarden enough to make someone die of happyness 9 bands being announced tomorrow for DL. Think they'll announce Metallica and Soundgarden amongst them but got a feeling the nasty bastards will hold AC/DC back for another week or two, just to keep the hype going.

Really can't see them going much past 190/200 with camping,a bit cheaper with just 3 day camping and 140/150 just for the arena ticket. Thats just a guess like. As for selling out, if 'DC are announced, maybe only a few days to a week? Could be totally wrong but with the speed their tour sold out last year, i don't think they will last long.

Had a good time but wouldn't stay in a tent again as it was fucking horrible waking up in sauna like conditions still twated from the night before. To do benni again I would have to have a hotel or apartment sorted. Think V will be on the cards this year. Not sure if it clashes with any Stoke games though?
