however, I don't go to pilton to see any specific act/band, its the whole experience that makes it what it is.

[Obi-Wan is lost...]

there is not one single band on that line up that i would like to see. could be worth going just for the experience, but i doubt it....

I'm guessing you've never been. I gave up planning on seeing lots of bands after my first time, planning to see lots of sets never works anyway. Where on the list is the circus field/circus tent/comedy tent/green field/lost vagueness/random theatre acts/great food/healing fields  /etc etc, all of which comes higher up the list for me. But if you are checking out bands, don't miss CuD and The New pr0nographers. Oh yeah, and there are 213 rumours listed here http://www.efestivals.co.uk/festivals/lineups.php?FestID=1175

[fatneck]

could be worth going just for the experience, but i doubt it....

It's totally worth it for the experience. Four days of worrying about little, except where your next bottle of cider/spliff etc etc is coming from is good for the soul. Going again this year and am firmly looking forward to it, the bands are a bonus.
