it is a good lineup - but its not just down to that.

set time clashes, production, camping facilities, food options/cost, all those things make or break a good festival, not nessecarily the people playing imo.

mega lol @ coldplay. hate. and loads of the hip hop acts are commercial as hell too.
but theres definately some good diversity and stand out acts I'd want to see if they were only playing there.

an interstate festival you need to add another $1k for flights/hiring shit/renting camper van etc.
but they will get a good cross section of punters and that makes a good festival vibe i reckon.
