Don't scream
So the almost-consensus out there is that double booking Primal Scream is a bit of a rip off after everyone had their eye on that TBC slot and hearts pumping for something legendary. With a bit of luck, Bobby and the boys will do more than just repeat their Saturday night set, but hell, it's only an hour or two from the 3-and-a-bit day festival, and the best bits are almost never the superstar headline acts. So here are a few of the people you can catch by skipping one of the Scream sets:
Flower Travellin Band
Mark Stewart + The Maffia
Big Willie's Burlesque
The Music
Rodrigo y Garbriela
Bill Laswell presents Method of Defiance
Blues the butcher
And if you stay away from one of Asian Dub Foundation's shows, you'll be able to catch:
The Cribs
Roger Joseph Manning Jr
Oki Jin
Nakagawa Goro
Adrian Sherwood
Sheena & The Rokkets
Surely one of those is enough to keep y'all occupied. Catch you at the Mark Stewart show...

Pretty sure nobody has seen all of those acts before - but if you have, well, there's always shagging in the woods to keep you entertained.
