Looks pretty good with the exception of Snow Patrol. They have to be the worst band I've ever seen live. Mind you, it'd be worth having to sit through them to see the Foos

Yeah, pretty good line up... was almost tempted by the appearence of Killers and Damien Rice, but now I have seen Killers I think I might just ask if I can chill in Pebs' back garden instead

Would like to go back

Went in 98, I won a compo on The Chart Show and had a limo up there and backstage passes, proper ones, had a beer stood next to Robbie Williams

August may be doable! I was planning another holiday in August after the cottaging meet but I may try to get some V tickets instead.
