Heard all sorts of rumours about this one. Jules and I have our tix . . . hoping some of the rumours are true but sure it will be a good night out anyway. I'm sure to be so drunk it will be good whatever!! Would love to see Happy Mondays again if that was true though

Er, no, hold on ... I'm already going. 
Let's just hope Big 'Who' Arm save the day.

yep not that great so far but there is more stuff to be announced
Well I'll go out on a limb and say I'm glad the Mondays and Insprials are playing. I've always wanted to see the Fun Loving Crims as well, although I'm only familiar with about 2 of their songs.
Let's face it, the night is there for a good cause and is more of a piss-up than anything else. At least the Mondays and the Inspirals will make it a party-like atmosphere, and hopefully (as Jack says) there are a few more interesting acts to come!
