Anyone else going?

For the people of the American persuasion, no, it isn't a book festival.

Lineup looks amazing!

Nah. QOTSA are the only band there I'd pay to see on their own. Dropkick Murphys are pretty good, and RATM (good live apparently), Manic Street Preachers, Feeder and Dizzee aren't bad, but that's nowhere near enough to make it worth the money for me.

I wouldn't have minded going to Wacken, but uni had other ideas (so did my bank balance actually, but there are ways around that).

...Bloodstock is in my summer holiday, but falls on the only weekend I can't make.

...and Roskilde (best festival in Europe that isn't primarily metal orientated) suffers the same fate as Wacken.

Glastonbury not selling well isn't exactly surprising. £155 to take a dump in a ditch is a ripoff.

Sziget in Budapest is as big as any UK festival (it attracts over 350k every year compared to about half that at Glastonbury), yet it only costs about £95... and it's not like it would be difficult to get the flights for less than £60 either.

Remember the line-up still isn't complete.
Latest update here.

About 17 bands I want to see now!
Less than £10 each, not bad going IMHO.
