    Shame Wilco aren't playing their own gig. We're not going to get the 2 hrs 15 mins they usually play at this.

    Outside of the official announcement Lower Dens have announced their Euro tour which includes a FF date , also is nobody psyched for Andrew Bird?

    Decent lineup, unfortunately I've seen a lot of the acts before. €50 is good for a day ticket, might go on the Sunday. Have to see the full bill beforehand.

    It just feels very dated to me, I would like to see a more subtle colour palette in a festival artwork now. Its very similar to EP/Oxygen etc of recent years with the rainbow palette etc..

    but to each their own :D as long as the music is good thats the main thing.

    New Order, grand job. Shame Hooky is not playing with them given he is in Dublin the following Friday.

    Leftfield, meh. Was hugely disappointed with them last time I saw them in Brixton.

    Have to say meh so far , bar Death Cab For Cutie

    Of all the bands you single out to not be 'meh' you pick death cab? Don't get me wrong they are a decent band but there are some really interesting bands on that line up, i'd say that you might not konw them all tbh.

    No love for the Wilco boys?

    Only gripe is that Austra/Grimes aren't on the Monday, will be a trek coming from the airport straight to this. Happy with the line up overall, think it's just left of mainstream enough to sell out and bring acts that normally might not get the turn out they deserve to a wider audience.

    Ghostdancers list is pretty much what i would go see. Stick Andrew Bird and Wilco on to it and that's me!

    I'm gonna get a one day ticket for Sunday.

    Wilco, Beirut, JVM and Andrew Bird will easily be worth the 45 quid. The rest of the acts I could sort of take or leave to be honest. Apart from Atlas Sound, they put all the acts I like on the one day!

    Phone/internet bookings subject to service charge of EU6.35.

    Not surprising, but still :mad:

    That's the Mondat line up you're quoting there, just in case you get a sunday one by accident!

    To anyone who hasn't seen them, or seen them on this tour, I was at a Wilco gig in Berlin in November and The Art of Almost will blow your mind! :)

    Its just that i only listen to Death Cab out of everyone . I do recognise most of the bands but i would'nt be mad into them or they wont really make run out and get a ticket but thats just my opinion

    I'm pretty underwhelmed.. would like to see Leftfield, New Order and Modeselektor, but other than that I've pretty much seen everyone else there that I'd be interested in. Really thought Justice would have been announced seeing as they're playing Cork on the Monday.

    Going to be a Saturday for me. Pretty good value for 45 Looking forward to Leftfield
    Booka Shade, The Field, Factory Floor and Bloody Beetroots. Can only go the one day. So hoping Django Django will be added. Sunday looks pretty good would have loved to see both Austra & Grimes hopefully well at the picnic.

    Its a shame they have to close so early 10.45 sure the night is only young.

    Interesting enough line up, but I find POD is just been lazy by giving us bands who have already played EP for the last few years, was expecting a few new artists to be announced too, would like to see Bat for Lashes again though yet this initial leak has not materialised.

    Is that the final line up now? As in no more to be announced.

    I think I would go for the Sunday but I was expecting something a bit more wow tbh...
