    Well gutted that I missed out on tickets for the chance to see Muse & Foo Fighters. Oh well hopefully they will come back one day.

    Great line up, but how does Snoop Dogg qualify as 'new music'? He's been going since before many on the lineup were even born ! :D

    I live less than 4 miles from the venue in Norwich and didn't manage to get tickets for either day :(

    I can actually hear Taylor Swift out of my bedroom window as I type.

    I've got the live stream of it on the BBC website, which is drowning it out :D

    Luckily I'm not fanatical about any of the acts there, but it would've been cool to be there. Especially for Foo Fighters later.

    I saw the Muse set on the TV. I don't know if they rely heavily on pre-recorded backing tracks, but the sound they made was absolutely insane. There must be people who witnessed that who still haven't recovered. I don't know how they fit in with the dire crap that Radio 1 puts out all the time. All the best acts would have been more at home on 6 Music.

    The organisers' answer to that is probably something to do with him returning to rap, after a few years of recording reggae style tracks as Snoop Lion.
