Is that everyone? Surely it's usually more eclectic. :)

Yep thats the lot this year, not very strong, still presale tickets are buy one get one free so I guess £20 a day aint bad for the Kaisers or Faithless especially.
I've got mine for the Kaisers, really looking forward to seeing The Twang they are selling shows out throughout the Uk, got a single coming out and I can see them going far.

How strange, I remember last year's and the year before's O2 fest looked really good, and I also remember feeling gutted I wasn't going on both occasions. Funny how noone's really up for playing there this year. Not heard of the The Twang, they sound funky with a name like that though.

More bands now added , they've dragged them up from somewhere :laugh never heard of most of them :yikes:

Leeds is flooded so this is going to be a mudbath.
The kaisers will be singing I predict a washout.:wink

The wireless website has posted this -

PLEASE NOTE - DESPITE THE INCLEMENT WEATHER, WIRELESS LEEDS IS DEFINITELY GOING AHEAD.

I'm planning on staying undercover in the v.i.p area as much as possible.
It doesn't seem a bad line-up in there .

I've got my wellies out so that I can watch the Twang, Editors and Kaisers out in the rain though.

[samantha1303]

I've got plenty :laugh they will get a wash with the rain as no doubt I will be soaked to the skin by the time the Kaisers come on stage.
