MORE HEADLINERS, ACTS AND FUN TO BE REVEALED SOON!



� Once again you'll be treated to the delights of 100s of live acts, DJs and Sunday best surprises over three days on the magical island that's perched only four miles off the south coast of England - the Isle of Wight

� Bestival is supported by BBC Radio 1



� Plus BBC Radio 1's Bobby & Nihal present the Bollywood Cocktail Bar



� Local Isle of Wight heroes The Bees host the 24 Hour Village



� Jack Daniels and BarFly present The J.D Set Lounge: A new acoustic arena with intimate performances from the hottest live acts around



This year, Rob da Bank, who's cutting the airwaves with two Radio 1 shows � his weekly Thursday night slot as part of One Music and his legendary early hours Saturday Session The Blue Room, has once again programmed some of the freshest talent mixed in with the most respected heritage acts across 5 arenas - The Main Stage, the already legendary Bollywood Cocktail bar, The Big Top, The 24 Hour Village and the new J.D Set Lounge.

The Cuban Brothers? What's that a mix between the cuban boys and the chemical brothers?

theyr erm, just two blokes who dance really. i duno why they are an act, they came on when i was watchin freestykers at Clapham, some nice dancing, but abit pointless, aparently they like to get naked and go abit crazy on stage, can see how it mite be funny, not for a music festival though.

hi, me too!; not very impressed about this line up, After I saw the topic about Coachella i Understand why Whirly G. Is so excite for this festival!!! really good bands there , think one of the best of this year.

Pity is sooo far away from me.

Yeah was at Clapham to see em too. The Cubans pop up (excuse the pun) at most music festies..... most memorable for me was at Creamfields a coupla years ago when they got a bunch of girls from the audience to join em on stage and get their kit off. Very entertaining.... and i didn't even have to look at the brothers themselves once! }:-)

wow, im more than up for them gettin some ladies to get nakey!

Ulrich Schnauss makes great ambient songs, I love it. ;)

yeah its very very bueatifull. i bought the album , its great!

Actually, along with The Magic Numbers, Ulrich Schnauss would be why I go there, if I had planed to go. Definitely one of my fav artists.



np: Ulrich Schnauss - [A Strangely Isolated Place #2] On My Own

I'd go for soulwax and 2 many dj's



2 many are some of those most talented dj's I've heard in the past 4 years.



If you haven't heard any of their mixes, you're life is not complete.

Two Lone Swordsmen catch my attention, though I'm not sure if they'd be playing their own material or spinning. Either way.....

Royksopp!!!
