Well here we go. It’s Electric Picnic time again and you have some serious thinking to do. You need to find your clashes and figure out who you absolutely must see.
Pulp for us are one of the must see acts, very rare to catch them live so they really should be definite viewing. The likes of Lykke Li, James Blake, Le Galaxie, Retarded Cop, Adebisi Shank and Yuck make Saturday quite tasty.
Joan as Policewoman, James V McMorrow, Cast of Cheers, Best Coast, The Minutes and And So I Watch You From Afar also happen to make Sunday very very tasty.
Dear lord it’s a music overload, we’re already wrought with tough decisions.
Who are your picks for the weekend?
