Sigur Ros are indeed an amazing band. Takk was probably my favourite album of last year. According to the NME though they're going to be playing on the main stage on saturday, which to me is just bizarre. I can just imagine the reaction of the hordes of pissed-up neds when they launch into Hoppipolla :***:

Yeah, Takk was one of my favourite albums of last year too (the track "Gong" is amazing).

Can't see much people enjoying them on the main stage though, they're not exactly the proclaimers. They seem more suited for one of the tents.

I see Franz Ferdinand have been confirmed too, I imagine they will play just before the headliner.

Never heard of sigur ros, but the likelyhood is they may get moved to another stage depending on who is booked up until the date! The majority of bands on the main stage are a) well known stars (eg-last year foo fighters, green day, snoop) or have a big following in Scotland (travis, biffy, etc)

Arrrrggggggghhhhhhh!!!!!! Freeking Ticketmaster!!!! :x :x So many times tried to get through for weekend tickets, down to five minutes to go before being told "you have lost your place in the queue, please try again". Seriously, this happens all the time with them - for such a massive company, its just a total joke and god knows why the organisers till use them. Now it says all weekend tickets are sold out!

Eventually got a day ticket for saturday off here: http://www.seetickets.com/see/price.asp?code=153353&userid=318870529&filler1=see&filler2=email use this if you're still trying, cos ticketmaster is ****ed!

Had a wee chuckle to myself, went past the queues at lunch-time, right round to Specsavers... thought, "screw that" and was chuffed that I already had mine. Then on leaving the pub I was in, the land-lord told me I could have his too... day tickets but still... sadly they are already spoken for though Gaz!

I stayed up all night because I knew I would struggle to get up in the morn. Must say I'm slightly FUMING that I didn't manage to get a ticket on frecking ticketmaster. Waited for about 20 mins and got down to 3 minutes before the bugger said it couldn't process my request. Kept trying for over an hour then must have fallen asleep in the end - gutted.

One of the buy it now's on ebay is £650 for 2 camping tickets and one was up to nearly a grand for the same. I've heard there will be more coming out in March but if not it'll have to be ebay.

It's not as good as it used to be... been to all but two as well, but it's still a decent crack without too much travelling.

Neds are a right pain in the ass though. And I don't frequent the slam tent!

Anyone know if there are any decent local bands playing in the wee tents? Back in Blighty in the summer and seriously need to get my ear back to the ground. 8)

Would agree that its not as good as it was. Took my Polish girlfriend last year and she was exposed to all kinds of interesting Scottish "culture". I think she now thinks that the whole population of the country resemble wee strung out weegie neds.

I need to take her to the Scone game fair this year I think......... :roll:

There is a band called Bellx1 playing, superb! Damien Rice was formerly the lead singer years ago. Went to see them a few weeks back in Garage in Glasgow, they were very good indeed!
