Leeds is this weekend, V was last weekend, not too many great acts on either lineup, this are the few acts I'd possibly care about seeing if I was bothered enough to be at either.
V:
Newton Faulkner
Still not bothered to listen to his 3rd album, his first two were fun though
Friendly Fires
Umm, yeah, clutching at straws already. Good band, and had some nice tunes last summer
Keane
Didn't see any coverage, they'd have been wise to play more early stuff
Stone Roses
Playing literally every festival this year
Leeds:
The Cure
I'm told they were excellent at Isle of Wight a few years back playing a three hour set. Probably the most solid of the headliners this summer
Metronomy
Not too much competition on Sunday night, up against At The Drive-In and Kasabian
Passion Pit
The only band I'd actually pay to see at the festival, why they're three behind Foster the People I'm not sure
Odd Future
Who wants to play spot the hipster?
Florence + The Machine
Could easily steal the show, Kasabian won't be depending upon stuff from Velociraptor! to try to top it I'd imagine
Leeds nicks it 5-4, but neither festival is worth the money and spending a few nights in a tent
