I think anyone who has done Pink Moon will never go back to normal camping again lol. I know i certainly won't

They improved it quite a bit last year, extra showers/toilets, bigger bar and direct access to the main, with the hike in prices this year it'll be interesting to see if they improve again.

Agreed, have been going since 2011 and did it for the first time last year and I'll never go back. Booked again this year.

Also serious lack of electronic acts? More to be added yes?

Loads more to come in Body & Soul, RBMA, Casa Bacardi etc.

This is a very respectable start in my opinion (these are just the ones I know):-

The Chemical Brothers
LCD Soundsystem
Todd Terje
Pantha Du Prince
John Talabot
Daniel Avery
Shít Robot
Le Galaxie

Hate wishing away the summer but cannot wait for this

M83 & Miike Snow still have glaring gaps in their tour schedule EP weekend. So do Moderat. There is still hope....

I presume all that garbage about Radiohead being added has been put to bed now? Biggest size act left to announced would be around M83/Grimes IMO.

Let's see what the rest of June brings. We're still over ten weeks to the Picnic. Good line up though we have, I feel the upper strata of acts has still to be fleshed out. However, if no Radiohead or Polly Jean by the start of July then I'll officially give up.

Sad really - I could just about understand selling them for the full face value (240?) as they're arguably worth that. But a 150% markup is a disgrace. Still, not as bad as some of the arseholes on Seatwave:

The person selling you the ticket gives you a free golden shower and tells you it's raining.
