True - but I'm going to see Pulp at Wireless. But you have got a point, when I went to Connect it was pretty crap just only being interested in the Manics.

I would've liked to have gone to T in the Park when Manics, Seasick Steve and the Specials were playing. That would've been cool.

you could always sell, and rebuy IOW? but then again, London is much easier to get to. And you never know what may be announced for wireless yet.

Yeah, I think I'll stick with Wireless! Travel wise it makes more sense. And you are right, no one else has been announced yet.

Great news. I was going anyway as I love the iow festival. Very chilled and usually a great atmosphere. Big top is a great gig. Feeder were awesome.

Ah, a festival that's taking place so far away from me in the middle of my A2 exams in June...there's no way I could have got there anyway even if I didn't have exams.

I'm hoping they'll do Leeds & Reading next year, and if they do, I'll get a day ticket for the day they're headlining at Leeds, seeing as Bramham Park's about an hour away from where I live. I feel it's just a hope though

I'm feeling them for Reading and Leeds, it's been a while and it's mass communication without the embarassment of playing V.

I dunno, they played Pennyroyal Tea, Send Away The Tigers and Of Walking Abortion at Leeds Festival in 2008...that's more than I got on their tour this year

They've played V before anyway, so they're hardly above it.

I definitely won't be going to this though.
