Headliners are usually not their strongsuit. I think it has to do with budgeting and with the things Scorpio is working with. The first year they definitely had more money to set up a strong name with acts as Arctic Monkeys and Sigur Ros headlining. Last year they came up with stuff like Franz Ferdinand and the Pixies. This year their headliners seem to be very UK minded. And they got the UK travel deals once again. Coaches are leaving from Manchester, London, Birmingham and a couple of other places. I bet a lot of people will make the trip for these headliners.
Guess I'm lucky for at least loving The Libertines. I can't count the amount of times I've listened to their two LP's. They were here last year for 50 euros. That was a bit much, but having the chance to see them at a festival is more than welcome. But hey, with stuff like The Jesus and Mary Chain, Death Cab, Jonny Greenwood, Future Islands and Mew right under there I'm not gonna complain too much. Not to mention the amount of fun bands all the way down at the poster.
Last year they added The War on Drugs and Slowdive in pretty much the last group of names so I would also say there's a decent chance at more interesting bigger names.
