I had fully intended on going, but I think I've changed my mind. The lineup just does nothing for me. I'm sure I'd have a good time no matter what, but I think I'll just save my money.

Chemical Brothers ain't bad, Muse bores me but is a pretty big name.

Seems like a lot of has-beens to me. When was the last time Ash released an album?

It's a very horrible line-up, the concert will probably not go well. The concert would be fun if it cost 50 000 won, but there sellin tickets for a big ticket item for a bad show.

It's not really THAT expensive. On the rare occasion bands play in Korea the ticket price is roughly the same, or more, than it is for a one day pass to the festival. Korn, Metallica, Eric Clapton, and soon, Nine Inch Nails.

So, even though the line-up reeks of pish it's not too bad a price for Muse, plus Ash (purely for the school days nostalgia), and Vassline etc. Plus you can laugh at Damien Rice, cos he's just rubbish.

Most of all, you get the festival atmosphere. OK, it's hardly a patch on any UK festivals, but the food was marginally better. Might invest in some glamorous farmer's wellies this time, rather than lose a shoe to the mud. A puppy had already savaged it earlier, so I wasn't too upset. In case you wondered.

Does anyone know if the festival sold out? Would it be possible to just show up on the Sunday and get in? What do we think

I've been stuck at the other end of the country.
I would have loved to have been there, even though I only really know a couple of the Korean bands.

If anyone did make it to any of the shows, please post reviews, and tell us about how it all was.

i made it for the sunday

had a great time

asian dub foundation blew me away , never heard them before they were my favorite

ash were a let down i was interested in seeing them co theyre from my home country but after 2 or 3 songs i wasnt that interested , a bit too pop for my tastes

hello goodbye was fun

muse are amazing live ,this was my third time seeing them , i cant listen to a muse album but the music suits stadiums and festivals so well they had a cool light show and played all the big hits and did a plug ib baby encore , first time i saw them was unforgettabl it was in dublin and there was a lightning storm while they were playing looked great

the dance tent was cool , shaked my ass in there i know nothing about djs or electronica but i was drunk so it was good

there were free water guns handed out so it was fun shooting waygooks and watching their serious heads

all together a great fest and because it was in korea i saw no fights or aggression

Rux played? I'm impressed they didn't get lost on their way to Incheon. That's what happened last week with their booked Beijing show.

There's a cool looking festival in Busan this weekend.

Kingston Rudieska is a wicked bluebeat band and Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra is their Japanese equivalent.
