So yeah, who's up for this? I am, definitely. Lineup looks fantastic (http://www.latitudefestival.co.uk/home/).

Me and Olli are!

Thinking about it that is.

Cause everyone does reading, and... well we're poor and Latitude looks nicer

Interpol, Franz F, Sigur Ros, Death Cab, M.I.A, Elbow...

Sounds alright to me

Sigur Ros! Sweet Jesus.

a friend and I might go up for the Saturday, we really wanted to see Sigur Ros, and I quite fancied seeing a few of the comedians around.

I can see myself spending most of the time watching comedians. Apart from when Sigur Rós are on, of course.

Go and see Ross Noble. Do it. I command you.

I think I probably definitely will. Unless they're at the same time as Sigur Rós.

Ha how strange that everyone are up for doing latitude

I am doing Saturday of course 65quid just for Sigur Rós is not madness for me, did it before two years ago when I saw them in Hong Kong and paid that sort of price.

I am off to Norwich tomorrow think I will get a ticket from Art Centre

I wonder if Marcus Brigstocke will take out the "Anyone from Norwich? Give me six" bit from his routine.

My bad! I say 65quid thats roughly include *cough*ripoff*cough* booking fee + delivery from some useless courier service (I said some becaues my area one is pretty reliable)

day ticket alone is 55quid actually

you can buy tickets from lots of place other than seetickets

heres the list

Oh now I wish I am doing weekend now instead knowing Tindersticks are playing also if anyone choose Mars Volta over Sigur Rós and Interpol over Tindersticks are madness!

saw them 4 times last year - all bar koko were insanely disappointing. they arent half the band they were in 2002/2003 as a live act.

jimmytheshimmy · **Posted:** Fri Apr 04, 2008 4:16 pm

fair enough. hadn't seen them that far back. my mate was also at koko, said it was pretty good. meh

A gleaming set of new acts have been unveiled for this year’s Latitude festival in Henham Park, Suffolk.

The fantastic Crystal Castles will be there, bleeping and fizzing their way through a set in the Sunrise Arena, while Foals and British Sea Power join the bill in the Obelisk Arena, (headlined by Interpol, Franz Ferdinand and Sigur Ros).

Blondie will also play the event, which runs from the 17th ‘til the 20th of July, performing in the Uncut Arena.

Weekend tickets for Latitude are retailing at £130 plus whatever bastard booking fees the sharks decide to pile on top, while single day tickets cost £55 plus booking fees.
