The Happy Mondays were pretty popular between 1989 and 1992. Many readers of this message board might simply be to young to know them... Last week I was on an AMAZING concert of Grace Jones and I was really surprised how many people (my girlfriend inculded) have never heard of her... And she was a MAJOR star in the 80th!!! AND: Grace Jones was the only artist I voted for with the Sziget wishlist, which the whishlist didn't automatically recognize - even with a very successfull recent new record many people seem to have never heard of her! ;) No – it’s not!

FM4 just announced 11 new bands of their lineup. Usually a lot of the bands playing at FM4 are also on Sziget. New bands are some already confirmed for Sziget: - Bloc Party - Ska-P - Ting Tings some german bands of who I (as german) hope to see none at Sziget: - Peter Fox - Mia - Selig - Polarkreis 18 and some international acts: - Heater Nova - Anti-Flag (at Sziget 2008) - Eagles of Death Metal (at Sziget 2007) - Kasabian (announced for Sziget 2008, but then canceled) The only band I really would like to see is KASABIAN. Also many of the V-Festival rumours are now confirmed: http://www.efestivals.co.uk/festivals/v/chelmsford/2009/lineup.shtml# There are already 3 bands confirmed for Sziget and V (Fatboy Slim, Pendulum and Ting Tings) and a lot of amazing V-Festival bands I'd like to see at Sziget (The Specials, Lily Allen, Happy Mondays, The Wombats, James, The Enemy, MGMT) - pick your own favorites... there are lots to pick from! ;) Ready for some more speculations?

No new bands here (The Offspring are officially listed), but based on the wording of the text, Prodigy, Placebo and Fatboy Slim seem to be headliners and Bloc Party, Pendulum, Klaxons, Ting Tings, Ska-P and Offspring will be opening acts on the mainstage. Based on this we will get two more headliners as well as a Day Zero act! Two headliners on the World Music Stage will be the amazing Calexico as well as Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club (with Guajiro Mirabal, Jesus Ramos and Manuel Galban).
