Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th August
HYLANDS PARK - CHELMSFORD and WESTON PARK - STAFFORDSHIRE

So, the names have been pulled out of the musical magician's hat and spread out to the masses. Are you chuffed with the V Festival line-up or are you gagging for something more? Personally, I think it's hard to bitch too much about V Fest. Come on, admit it... unless you're a hard core metal head or a laser worshipping hard house addict, there's an artist to push most buttons.

Brits, Americans, old school (all hail The Proclaimers!) and even a dash of Pink stuff (I'm not a fan but where there's a chick with bright hair, there's usually a loyal following).

"Stop!" You shout. "Just tell us who we can expect to see..."
Okay, here's what a ticket will get you:

Headliners: FOO FIGHTERS, THE KILLERS, SNOW PATROL.

And a decent dose of:
Kasabian
Pink
James
Basement Jaxx
The Kooks
Amy Winehouse
Manic Street Preachers
The Fratellis
Primal Scream
Damien Rice
Babyshambles
Happy Mondays
Paolo Nutini
Editors
KT Tunstall
Mika
James Morrison
Sophie Ellis Bextor
The Fray
The Proclaimers
The Goo Goo Dolls
Kanye West
Guillemots

It's enough to make a festival goer go 'ga-ga'. No doubt there'll be a hoard of celebrities prancing about there too. Will Pete Doherty make it on stage, will Mika prove himself to the masses and will the Goo Goo Dolls set little teenage hearts aflutter? Yes that means you Peaches Geldof.

Be there... gawd knows everyone else will.
