Confirmed so far...

Foo Fighters
The Pixies
Iron Maiden (!)
The Killers
Kasabian
Queens of the Stone Age (oh yes)
The Coral

Kings of Leon (hell yeah)
Razorlight
The Charlatans
Iggy and the Stooges

I'm a bit disappointed with the lineup.

Foos, fair enough, but the others are a bit 'oldie' to headline.

As I suspected the fest has beenm tainted with this new-fangled indie craze. I suspect some of the crap bands I like will probably be playing the concrete jungle stage. Last year Dillinger Esc Plan, Thrice, FFAF and a bunch of other bands you main-stagers won't have heard of were announced last minute - might just go to download instead.

Meh.

He's got the controversial slot. Last year filled by 50 Cent. I know who I'd rather see.

Think I'll be representing the smaller stages and the campsite for the most part this year. Only really care about Foo Fighters and I'll be pleased to see Pixies and Queens. All those new indie bands are going to get a bit boring and I can't stand Maiden.

Come on...add Mars Volta and Brand New to that lineup.

Here's to the Concrete Jungle!

Nothing much there except The Charlatans and The Pixies.

Sorry Snugs, looks like I'm out - too expensive.

And Kylie at Glastonbury?
