9 bands on the first day I'd like to see, 8 on the second day. Very interested and a great price as well... Smile

2nd stage all Saturday, mainstage all Sunday.

Seriously though, if you're there on Saturday, go and see Xcerts.

They're fantastic live.

If I went, I'd be pretty up for Gang of Four, Blood Red Shoes, Fightstar (don't judge me Smile

), Ghost of a Thousand- Awesome live band, they came on with Gallows at the end of Gallow's set and it was like one super band, and of course, Xcerts.

And, £45 for a full weekend ticket, £55 with camping? That's pretty good.

Also, positive karma for StUerror, for the way he (or she) has promoted this. Posted everything we need, links to tickets, lineup, website, and has actually sounded like they give a toss about promoting it rather than just doing it because they're paid to.

Their job probably depends on tickets selling.

Exactly, also- without the ridiculous use of caps all the way through his post, and he didn't pretend to be a boardie, he was honest about who he was and why he was posting.

We need more festival employees like StUerror!

He spelled "trekking" wrong. Surely that's worthy of a ban in itself?

Karma points for you. I have seen them and they are Brilliant live.

If this was closer to me i would defo go to this. Not sure what the train service would be like from Swindon. May be worth looking into.

FGW into Paddington, then you've got a couple of options on the Underground. I reckon Circle to Liverpool Street and Central out to Hainault (or whatever station they suggest) then.

Or walk five minutes from Paddington to Lancaster Gate, and you're all set Central line wise Smile

It says like half an hour from London city centre, but what makes the difference to me is like, east of London, north... etc.

I'm south of London by about 80 miles and if it was south of London I'd do anything up to and including bumming a Latvian goat to go.

I got some gropage on during their set Smile

Singer came into the audience and started playing a snare drum (while the bassist held up the song on his own! Imaginary + karma to the Xcerts bassist)
