The smaller festivals are where the fun is at nowadays Glasto aside. Usually a varied lineup and nicer people, less neds.

Slam Dunk (May) and Vans Warped Tour (November) are only ones I'm thinking about going to. Might consider a day ticket for the Isle of Wight to see Biffy.
Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

Leeds/Reading looks a no brainer for any music fan.
Also fancy Isle of Wight, anyone else ever been?

Heard great things about it last year so I fancy heading up to the Black Isle Brewery festival, otherwise known as Jocktoberfest. Mates had a great time last year.

Fancy the Friday and Saturday lineup at Download this year - tons of excellent bands playing this year with no overload of oldies.Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

Would highly recommend this festival and would be going if it didn't clash with Primavera....I was there 2 years ago (wasn't on last year) Really great venue, some crazy good avent garde acts & the best sound system Ive ever heard at any gig....Bass at Hype Williams almost had me soil myself..

Really excited about seeing Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 at Glasto and hopefully the Sunday evening will be nice and sunny for Dolly Parton.

Glasto line-up announced. Bit of a bizarre one this year - London Sinfionneta Orchestra, Dolly Parton, Metallica, English National Ballet, Pixies, Skrillex and Robert Plant sharing the same bill...
Loads of little treats in the midcard.

(If you see a fat bloke at Glasto in a Hibs shirt, buy him a pint)
Who are you looking forward to seeing?

I'm not really overly fussed on most of the lineup actually. Public Service Broadcasting, Chvrches, Interpol, the Manics, Pixies, Billy Bragg, The Selecter seem to be early forerunners to go and see.
Who are you hoping to catch?
