yeah, he needs credit, the work that goes into this list is immense!

"where is band x?!" LOWER DOWN THE CHART BECAUSE LESS PEOPLE LIKED THEM.

this is a brilliant chart, I want to try buy them all.

secret note to next year's people: despite saying the security would search people's bags, they weren't.

Ace festival. I also enjoyed Allo Darlin, who played on the train.

I love this shop :(

I'm getting so excited!

so excited.

I'm looking forward to this.

good anyway though.

he looks so young. The same thing happened to my friend's brother, it's horrible.

this is cool.

poor Mrs Kanye :(

I want this rarities one so much.

I love Jeffrey Lewis.

:D this has made my day.

it is an Eminem cover. It seems likely.

I imagine lots of other people do too.

please!

this is nice.

I hope it can live up to how much I adore this band.

I'm easily pleased :)

?!??!111

what would happen on the most awesome day you could possibly imagine?

they are me. The dates are all confused up there by the way, it's the 14th.

I'm sure their new band will be ace though.

but Chrome Hoof deserve many more words than that. They were absolutely outstanding, a highlight of the festival. Silver capes! A bassoon! Dancers! A giant sheep! Sounding like a cross between Sun Ra and Black Sabbath! They were totally brilliant.

hurrah!

he has terrible skin.

yaaaaaaay!

God I love Malkmus.

wowowow I'm excited.

I admire you.

but really, it's Into My Arms by Nick Cave.

"I don't believe in an interventionalist God/but I know darling that you do/And if I did, I would kneel down and ask him/not to intervene when it came to you"

g'wan.

Lifeblood = Not That Bad

1-1

never again Gareth!

this'll be ace.

I wore PVC trousers. Oh the horror!

dig out your feather boas! And make Crablin come!

I'm going to the Astoria.

good luck!

(especially that Win Butler looks like Rik Mayall) but I thought that My Body Is A Cage was absolutely brilliant. Also worth mentioning were the one about how he couldn't live in the house where his father had died, and the Springsteen-esque one at the end. I'm looking forward to the album!

you've said everything I feel, Mike. PAINFUL.

oh yes

I love Brett.

would have been brilliant.

surely they've had far more of an impact in the last year than the Red Hot Chilli Peppers?!

Good to see Guillemots in there, although it's weird that it's not for Breakthrough Act.
