Guys let's not go overboard with the whole "the lineup is almost irrelevant, its the atmosphere and craic that makes it etc". I thought last years lineup was very poor across the board, worst by a mile in years. Does that mean I had a rubbish time and couldn't wait to leave? Absolutely not! But would I have preferred if I was spoilt for choice about who to go see throughout the weekend? Absolutely!

Imagine how much they're gonna be when Radiohead and Miles Davis are announced.

Not to mention the 3D hologram Prince set!

Didn't 3 do that last year too and it was a shambles. Only a handful of tickets

glencurtis252 · 23-03-2017 11:30AM

Is the release on any radio stations or rte or anything??

Arne_Saknussem · 23-03-2017 11:30AM

That poster posted last night is obviously wrong as it doesn't have The KLF on it.

BananaR · 23-03-2017 11:30AM

Anyone who thinks last year's line-up was OK. I urge to look back through the previous line-ups right back along to the start. There is no comparison in terms of the quantity of quality well known acts....

Agree. While I didn't think last year was necessarily a bad lineup it was lower in comparisons to other years. Last year seemed to b poor overall for festival lineups though but plenty of acts around this year and available so here's hoping.

Looks like the same graphics anyway. I'd be confident it's real now.

Crap it sounds legit, not great at all. Anyway, I'm sure I'll find enough to keep me busy

glencurtis252 · 23-03-2017 11:39AM

Is the release on TV or radio anywhere??

Arne_Saknussem · 23-03-2017 11:39AM

Today FM have just announced Tribe Called Quest, The XX, Interpol, Run the Jewels etc

Seems the poster was right!

my feelings exactly. I'm sure the line up will be beefed up in time..

DisneyLover · 23-03-2017 11:42AM

2012.. The Cure, The XX, Hot Chip, The Killers, Ed Sheeran, The Vaccines ..

BananaR · 23-03-2017 11:42AM

Lads that's not great AT All!!

Quintis · 23-03-2017 11:43AM

Wow that's underwhelming at best, worst lineup I can recall

heebusjeebus · 23-03-2017 11:44AM

Ah FFS did they take Phoenix off the leaked lineup??

Arne_Saknussem · 23-03-2017 11:44AM

They've listed the XX, Tribe & Duran Duran as headliners so no more Radiohead talk!

A couple of nuggets in there, we did get Soulwax

SteelyDanJalapeno · 23-03-2017 11:45AM

Dirt, but it's not about the line up

Mr. Incognito · 23-03-2017 11:45AM

Awful Line up

I've not missed many years but I'll probably give this one a skip

optogirl · 23-03-2017 11:45AM

Happy With Divine Comedy, Run the Jewels, Madness - will be a good weekend with no big expectations

leakyboots · 23-03-2017 11:45AM

Delighted with that!
