Is Kraftwerk not confirmed, or are you not too bothered on seeing them, John? 8)

Personally not fussed on Kraftwerk, but I'll probably watch them on the day. Looks like I'll only be there on the Saturday now, but that's still a hell of a line up for around 45 quid.

A dream gig that includes Fat Boy & Faithless? And minus Kraftwerk? You're having a laugh, surely.
Dream gigs include 808, NewOrder & Aphex Twin :)

Just looking for the full party anthem atmosphere, which Norm has comin' out of every orifice. 8)
Insomnia, God is a DJ and We Come 1 echoing over a PA with the entire crowd singing along is just amazing. :P
Whilst Kraftwerk & Aphex would take stronger drugs to get into in the same manner. :x
But I am so looking forward to Alison Goldfrapp, must dig out the Goldfrapp DVD again. :wink:

It's obviously an age/country thing Mr A, whilst I do appreciate the origins of electronica:
Kraftwerk, Jarre, Vangelis, Sakamoto, etc etc. (feel free to add other names here)

I grew up learning acid and house, whilst hearing Madness, Bob Marley, Merle Haggard and Meat Loaf from all directions, is it really any surprise my musical tastes are as screwed up as much as Graham's. But I think I'm all the better for it, and I don't think Graham would be he same person if he wasn't anywhere as near eclectic as he is.

I'm just looking to enjoy myself, my mate by the way is trying to get me to bring the decks and PA for the camp site and is currently seeking out a geni and van for an impromtu gig to all those too off their faces to make it back to the stages.

Just teasing you (Turin-style) John, no need to explain yourself :) Everyone is entitled to their own taste :)
