White Lies - Competent indie jangly stuff, but I felt like I'd seen dozens of similar bands over the years.
Ladyhawke - Nice enjoyable retro-pop, she seemed to be having fun with her cheesy 80s synthesiser and pyromanic lyrics.
Ida Maria - Probably the highlight - A potty Norwegian woman with a great hat. Wicked! (I think that's the word the kids use these days).
Iglu & Hartly - Mediocre Chilli-Pepper wannabes, but decent energy nonetheless.
The Rifles - Started promisingly with a nice melody, but went downhill once they started singing. A bit dull thereafter.
Kaiser Chiefs - Cracking stuff. One of those strange bands that I don't really like but I like most of their songs. A bit like the Beatles I suppose. Their prediction of a riot was unfounded.
The busker on the way there - Rubbish. He thought he was Jimi Hendrix, in fact he was actually not quite as good as Jimmy Nail.
