    There's still 3 stages to announce people!! Stop worrying! LBT, Rankin and the one that people seem to be forgetting a lot, Cosby. Last year it had Jagwar Ma, CHVRCHES and Savages on it so it's still very much a main arena stage.

    Big acts like Jungle, Kelis, FKA twigs, Slowdive and Duke Dumont still without homes at the minute.

    It's not the homes that bother me...it's the times!!!!

    Same boat. Murphy's Boiler Room sessions are fantastic though and are swaying me.

    Saw Dimitri from Paris back in May, it was the best DJ set I was ever at. Completely just disco and house, but if that's what you like then Dimitri from Paris is unmissable. Both are playing two hour sets though so it would be possible to fit in an hour of both!

    The answer is Dmitri from Paris.

    I say this as someone who is definitely going to James Murphy and is trying to reduce the crowd a little!!

    No DJ, Chic are playing instead.

    I think SBTRKT is on the same time in the Electric Arena so maybe that'll satisfy some of the electronic heads? I've not decided yet.

    Jaysis go easy on Friday night lads and lassies. It's not the drink or drugs or mud that'll get ya. It's the leppin around from all the excitment. Friday is the night where most stuff gets lost plus the legs aren't what they used to be. Swaying FTW. Or you'll be crippled and broke for the entire weekend! I speak from experience.

    a few of them went out to media places on the Thursday last year, so hopefully we'll get the last 3 tomorrow.

    e: just checked, Cosby and Rankin Woods were released on Thursday last year.

    Glass isn't allowed in, I presume you know that anyway, just for storing the spirits....

    Probably 1 more tomorrow and then the 'exclusive times' as part of a pull out on Fridays Times. So you have to buy one on the way.

    skins (5 packs in individual ziploc bags distributed around your belongings)
    Lighters (you can never have too many… I usually bring about 10 and give away 5 late at night to people getting excited about finding someone with a lighter)
