Gotta go for Download this year. Black Sabbath and Metallica playing all of self-titled? No contest.

Sonisphere looks good too though.

The Killers are my favourite band ever, so for me, it's V.

They're all just awful!

T in the Park was awesome last year. Arctic Monkeys, Beyonce, Coldplay and Foo Fighters!

This year, 2 bands who play every couple years and Stone Roses?

All festival lineups this year are a massive dissapointment, and I've been to at least one major festival every year since 2000. Not going to any this year, really not liking any of them.

None of them look that great really. Makes me feel better that I can't afford to go to any this year.

Looks like a good year for buying day tickets.

I went for Isle of Wight, Pearl Jam are fantastic live and Springsteen is always great. Download looks great on paper, but Sabbath are long past their best and The Prodigy haven't done anything particularly noteworthy since the 90s for me. Sonisphere is also quite appealing, Faith No More will be brilliant, and while I'm not a big Kiss fan their live show is pretty spectacular. Queen and Adam Lambert does spoil things a little bit though.

Sonisphere seeing as it features Adam Lambert.

Any festival with The Cure gets my vote. Guaranteed hits and a sterling performance. Although the same is true of Stone Roses, dilemma. But as Stone Roses have either The Killers or Snow Patrol with them, the vote must go for The Cure.

I would say Download but not cos of the headliners, just cos Corey Taylor is going to be there

From that list Reading and Leeds just for the Cure alone.

My favourite for this year, though, is the All Tomorrow's Parties "I'll Be Your Mirror" festival in May featuring:

Slayer, Mogwai, The Afghan Whigs

Interesting line-up!
