MY FANTASY MUSIC FESTIVAL

Hugh arrived back from university on Friday bringing with him a good game - to design your fantasy music festival. Three days. Rules include no dead people, but you can have bands that aren't currently together.

No dead people? (Of course this led us into subsidiary thinking - were some musicians we wanted to include dead or alive? - useful site here for such questions)

So here is mine - line up changes possible, but more or less my fantasy music festival:




Friday:

Headliner: Radiohead

The National
Pulp
Frank Turner

Blitzen Trapper
Mumford & Sons
Dixie Chicks
The Streets

Saturday:

Headliner: The Smiths

Blondie
The Ramones
Curiosity Killed the Cat (original)
Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Elvis Costello
Roxy Music
The La's


Sunday:

Headliner: Leonard Cohen

Frightened Rabbit
Tom Jones
Catatonia

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
The Verve
Saint Etienne



So there you have it. Finish on LC, and we all go home depressed but full of poetry and soul.

So, would you come?

There's also going to be lots and lots of poetry, Nigella will demonstrate cake making, we may do some river swimming and we all get to grow some of our own vegetables.



Do not just snipe at my choices, btw. Would love to find out your fantasy music line ups.... It's much much harder than you think. And funner too.
