    Daytripper 2017 headliners

    Night 1- dance night someone like Fatboy Slim, Judge Jules etc

    Night 2- rock/britpop kind of night someone like Richard Ashcroft, Keane, Scissor Sisters etc

    Night 3- 80's night. Would love someone like Tears For Fears, Mike and the mechanics, Pet Shop Boys, Human League etc.

    I'd go for a one day festival with a huge headliner, Duran Duran along with a mixed genre support bill

    Fatboy Slim and Judge Jules are well played out, but Underworld, Massive Attack, Groove Armada, Basement Jaxx, The Chemical Brothers... they're all from that era and still sound good.

    Instead of Britpop why not Irish acts? So many good Irish bands around these days organisers would be spoiled for choice. Villagers, Jape, The Minutes or whoever on one stage, Cathy Davey, Lisa Hannigan, Wallis Bird on the stage opposite. Thats just a few acts off the top of my head but it could be a cracking line up and a pretty cool selling point.

    Bring back Madness for the third night. Everyone likes them and mods need a night to iron the Fred Perrys, and stomp to the happy happy monster sound etc.

    Each to their own ;-)

    If I got to pick all three nights I don't think many would turn up to it!
