    Running through the timetable at the mo. Some unfortunate clashes but all in all not too bad. There's a significant gap across the stages while Neil Young plays on the Saturday, which suits me perfectly as I thought there would be loads of clashes there.

    Worst offenders are The Vaselines/Marnie Stern and Aphex Twin/Lightning Bolt. More to come as I work through some of the acts I'm unfamiliar with.

    Returned back. Weekend of awesomeness. When I last went in '07, I was far more familiar with a lot of the acts playing. This year was more like a random let's-check-out-some-bands session.

    The timetable was a little haphazard at times, with some slots being clash heavy and others with acts that I pretty indifferent towards. Nonetheless, generally speaking there was consistently something on that was worth a look.

    They moved the Vice stage. I preferred where it was before but it had a better backdrop in the new location and there was a nice walk by the seafront.

    Out of the three days, Friday was the weakest for me, and missed My Bloody Valentine as the queue to the Auditori was immense. ****ed Up were fantastic though. Other highlights: The Vaselines, Jay Reatard, Aphex Twin, Extra Life, The Bad Plus, Michael Nyman, Neil Young, among a load of others.
