very cool line-up, shame I cannae make it.

[Larsen B]

If I have the dosh I'll be going to this, assuming it isn't already sold out.

[RF Scott]

Will be at this possibly, if I can find a way to obtain rough stage times..

[Cloud]

Just to make a point - it's a shame they're using ticketmaster. If it was genuinely "putting the real back into festivals", then they wouldn't use ticketbastard.

It's a relatively small gripe though, considering the ticket price in itself is incredibly reasonable, and there are other vendors from which you can purchase tickets. It's probably about as 'real' as a festival is going to get without being ridiculously niche, with lack of sponsorship, decent prices and facilities (presumably)...

Have to say that although Ticketmaster may be a plook on satan's sphincter, I do find it preferable to the all-Paypal approach that some smaller festivals have gone for this year. I've had bother with a couple myself & know several folk who have had endless fun trying to buy tickets via them.

as mentioned there, the price is amazingly good value in my opinion.

I would pay that to see a couple of those bands listed there.

SOLD OUT

just wondered if anybody else from these parts was fortunate enough to get a ticket
for this astonishing line-up

how was your experience at Field Day mike? i heard it was a wee bit disorganised? as in massive queues for drinks/food, not enough toilets...
might be wrong though!
