There's nowt wrong with Leicester! I lived there for 3 years and loved it, it looks a bit shabby but its a nice place. Anyway! The festival is in a park and when you're there you wouldn't even know you were in Leicester to be honest. I can't wait! Looking forward to fuck buttons, to be honest I don't know a lot of the bands (apart from the ones toward the top end of the list obviously) but I often like Summer Sundae to educate me. Although I hear good things of Errors. Its been a long time since I went last. Just wish I could have gone last year, would have loved to see !!!.

Just to let anyone who's in the dark about Leicester know: it's actually a great place with superb restaurants, nice parks, and a decent atmosphere, unlike other similar Midlands cities (ahem... Coventry, Derby... ahem).

Operator Please - I believe that they have bailed out due to recording commitments or overwork or something. Lots of other good stuff to see/hear though.....

Do they do day tickets at all for this? I looekd on the website and it doesn't seem to offer anything but the full weekend ticket. Just wondering as I wouldn't shell out for the whole weekend, but would do a day.

My my my. This is still looking like a solid line up lacking the one artist I really love to make me good. I still have faith, SSW organizers. And nice work on the Henry Rollins, that is AWESOME.
