It seems that everyone is suddenly shouting all manner of line-up announcements in an effort to subvert the press agenda away from their competitors.

Yesterday Reading and Leeds Festivals had a whole load of new acts announced across all stages: CSS, Digitalism, Simian Mobile Disco, Chromeo, Crystal Castles, Lethal Bizzle, Holy Fuck, The Whip, Robots In Disguise, The Death Set, The Shoes, Less Than Jake, Pennywise, Goldfinger, The Unseen, H2O, Frank Turner, The Loved Ones, Hexes, Gallows, Alkaline Trio, Thrice, Flogging Molly, MXPX, Cancer Bats, Set Your Goals, The King Blues, Fucked Up, The Gaslight Anthem, Random Hand, Jack Penate, One Night Only, The Duke Spirit, Be Your Own Pet, Blood Red Shoes, Make Model, Seasick Steve, The Ting Tings, The Mystery Jets, Santogold, Joe Lean & The Jing Jang Jong, Kids In Glass Houses, Bombay Bicycle Club, The Music, Hadouken!, Lightspeed Champion, Cajun Dance Party, Adam Green, Yeasayer, The Metros, British Sea Power, The Automatic, Alexisonfire. Although plenty of those names were in last year's programme as well...

And today V Festival confirmed the presence of Calvin Harris, Sam Sparro, Captain, The Presets, and Estelle at their little affair.

Oh, and every news source in the world is regurgitating the line-up for Glastonbury that has apparently leaked early. I could cut'n'paste it here, but it's enournous, so instead, click click to see what all the fuss is about.

Music Towers verdict: Oh? That's what we've been waiting for?
