Houdini, do I detect a shard of homme o phobic? What could possibly be uncomfortable about a field of several thousand Italian ex pats in sunglasses in vests touching you? Isn't this what living is all about?

As soon as I replace my broken computer, I'm going to plough through your sets here and see what's what.

Don't bother, it's what's on in clubs that counts.

You can go to Detatched for a tenner. 

I think your offer sounds utterly horrific, also, techno outside in daylight just doesn't work.

Techno in the daytime doesn't work!? Absolute nonsense boy! You should get back to the dark rooms!

I'm going to the Green Man for the third year in a row - got the tickets already. Line up's looking great. Don't know about electronica Bubba but its not as folky dolky as might be imagined. Four Tet and Future Sounds of London are on the the bill this year and there is a DJ tent. Personally, I'm made up to get a chance to see Wilco. Great, very relaxed festival and very convenient for those of us with Hereford connections.
Interesting, I was just reading up on it as a possible start to a South Wales camping trip. Would you recommend it for a first festy for an 20 month old raver? Is it quite small/family friendly?

Hey Obi, I went for the first time last year, was ace. As an indicator we'll be taking my new daughter this year (born Yesterday  ;D ;D ;D) as we thought it would be an ideal family freindly festival. (though by late august it's going to be Chloe's third festival.
IIRC there was about 8-10000 last year so nice size. Can't comment on the quality of the electronica though, I'm there for the folky doly stuff)

Still on, will be arriving some point Thurs evening. We've got a bell tent which'll have one of those big hippie flags next to it. Come say hi if you spot us! Don't think this'll be a very rock and roll year for me with the new baby, but still well excited (despite knowing nothing about any of the line up!) Be nice if the rain holds off, but IIRC last year wasn't too bad except around the entry points between the stages and the camping.

Plans, plans, plans? In last week have bought tickets for Green Man (normal set up, me and the two sprogs. Pretty good line up, not quite as excited as last year) and End of the Road - first time at this one for me; speculatively bought two tickets, need to find someone to go with. Whatever, its another chance to see Wilco.

40th Glasto for us this year, may try Shambala with Mini-Obi as well, some friends took their kids last year and rated it. We normally have plans on that weekend but don't this year.

I thought Luciano and Villalobos were at Creamfields this year but alas no. Vath, Plastikman, Magda, Raresh etc etc in attendance though. Might go this year if I can find some pounds.

Leftfield and Ian Brown at Rockness! Think mini SA is still a bit young, so will likely be with grandparents for the night.
