Snow Patrol
Interpol
My Chemical Romance
The Goo Goo Dolls
Daft Punk
James Morrisson

The likes of the Arctic Monkeys and The Killers are likely to be there too. They are confirmed for T in the Park.
Solid line-up so far - bit different from the last few times.

Headliners are Iron Maiden, My Chemical Romance and Linkin Park (weird headliners)

What is the news on the other big festivals?

I'd like to go to Wave-Gotik-Treffen and Wacken one of these days.

 

[emmer]

hey, we from the south need some festivals as well.

without css, of course. we don't want 'em back.

 

[ManU2000]

Rage Against the Machine is going to play at Coachella this year, it's at the end of April and I'm pissed I won't be able to be there. Hopefully it's a sign that they'll be getting back together, especially now that Audioslave is no more.

Music Festivals suck majorly... loads of inane populist bands spewing out their couple of commercial, played to death hits which you're so ******* bored with after months and months of radio butchery that the very intro makes you want to commit suicide. In that list in your post Denny there is only one band I would be in the slightest bit interested in seeing. Give me a jazz club any day.

Can you believe the three day passes are gone already? WTF? Anyway, yeah, I didnt think that it was possible, but they've outdone themselves this year with their lineup.

-side note- I hope those faggot brothers from the Jesus and Mary Chain get treated really well for their reunion and get beaten half to death by angry black people like at the second lollapalooza.
