Connect festival lineup,scotland

[Dode BCK]

Nearly as good as the coachella lineup,but still loads to be added,so could be one of the best of the summer.
So far there`s Primal Scream
Mogwai
Beastie Boys
Bjork
The jesus and mary chain
LCD soundsystem
The Go team
CSS
The only ones
Idlewild
3 day,in the grounds of Inveraray castle,on the shores of Loch Fyne.
Beautiful location,plus it`s on roundabout the same time as reading+leeds,so will be a few bands from there playing,hopefully smashing pumpkins.
You even get hire tents from them,will all your camping shit already in the tent for you when you arrive.

Seems the same except for Primal Scream and Beasties. I still think Primal Scream is getting added.

Hey mate,

Thanks for the info. I hadn't heard of this festival 'til now. I'm an ex-pat Scot living in Australia and I'm going to be in Scotland at this time, as I go to an event in Amsterdam for work in early September each year. Went to Reading last year and was gonna do the same this year but this year's line-up doesn't really do it for me, aside from a few acts who I have seen already or will see at Coachella. Connect sounds good though. Weekend of my birthday as well. hopefully my old Scottish mates will be able to get tix as well. Hopefully it won't piss down the whole weekend though. Fingers crossed ay.
