the line-up
is starting to look so, so good. I just need to find people who want to go now.

It's only about 30 minutes from me, but this being Bournemouth everyone loves funky house and that's pretty much it!
Amazing festival.
And not wanting to sound greedy but, just the one act in the annoucement?

Booked tickets - Hurrah.
Last year's EotR was fantastic.
i'd really like to go to this
mainly because it looks like the green man festival used to be before groups of ex-students with annoying sproggs named milly and rupert started running amok.
OH MY GOD
not ex-students! How terrible for you!
Mercury Rev, BSP Micah P.Hinson and A Hawk and a Hacksaw make this very tempting indeed.
My sprog
is going to run amok at EOTR this year
