During my festival days I would sometimes come away from them thinking "well, yeah, that was great but......".......either there were a couple of bands there I didn't like much or sometimes some that I'd never heard of......occaisionally I'd hear something from them I liked but not always....this was better but still not perfect.....anyway I did get to wonder a few times "Just what would be my perfect line up for a day festival ?"..
This was the answer.......

Madness
Sex Pistols
The KLF
Roger Waters
Neil Young
Peter Tosh
Ian Dury & the Blockheads
And finally of course The Rolling Stones


How about you ?

Mine could only ever come true in a dream of course because Ian Dury is dead..............................

Love this one....I'll go grab something to eat while Mr Gallagher's playing.

Back in reality land the Saturday of the recent Hop Festival in Kent, UK, was as near as it gets - Patti Smith, Lou Reed, Iggy and the Stooges, and Manu Chau. Oh, and for The Smiths fans there was Morrissey.
On the Friday there was Bryan Ferry and The Eagles and on the Sunday there was Prince. So it shows that you can still get great festival line ups.
