Yeaaaaa
But I really wish they got better acts, not only is it going head to head with Reading/Leeds it's at Devils Dyke which is lovely site for a festival.
But I fear they have done a terrible job in getting acts and promoting it... with the exception of De La Soul.
Press release said 'That'
but clearly it's 'A'.
Actually scratch that
I have seen the line up and it's in general quite good, not to mention its a long lil festival, Thursday - Tuesday? CHRIST!

No Lightspeed Champion though.........
i was disappointed with acceptance PAYPAL's latest
but it'll be interesting to see how they convey it live..
Can't wait...
It's out first festival. And the line up is pretty eclectic. Plus they're importing an entire beach. Bonus!
Are they ACTUALLY doing that
i'm gonna go then
I
proper loled. Thank you for that.
Can I stay at your place Matt
I'm heading down for this maybe.
Yea probably, if i get a ticket, but if i do
I WILL BE CAMPING! DUR!
Fear Not!
I recently spoke with a couple of the organisers and you won't believe how many obstacles they've come across regarding planning permission and the like, hence the late announcements in the line-up.
However, with all that out of the way, and some of the acts they've got (Gogol Bordello and De La Soul in particular catch the eye), it's shaping up to be an awesome event, and certainly won't go tits-up the way that Zoo8 did.
The Brighton Band Stage could be worth taking a look at too, there's some exciting new bands on that bill.
