Okay, here's the deal. You have 24 hours and the chance to see any five bands/musicians that you want in one place. Which five do you choose?

My line-up:

The Zutons
The Killers
The Heavy
Fitz and the Tantrums
Warren Zevon

(note - they don't all have to be currently living)

    Empires (can never get enough of them.)
    The Academy Is (all-time favourite band. saw them 19 times, had tickets to my 20th show when they broke up. cried for weeks. I just want to see them all together again one last time.)
    Yodelice (Marion Cotillard is an occasional member of this band. at my dream festival, she is there.)
    The original Broadway cast of RENT (does this count? it totally counts, right?) (I've seen 5 of them. I want to see all of them.)
    Edith Piaf. (she's a legend. it would be amazing.)


    That is the weirdest, most random music festival ever.

    Oh this is a tricky one...I'm answering this knowing that this is what I'm thinking at this exact moment, and I would probably answer 5 totally different bands tomorrow. That said, my five bands are:
    Archers of Loaf
    Radiohead
    Les Savy Fav
    Modest Mouse
    The Pixies

    Do they have to be alive?? lol

    From the top of my head..

    Mumford and Sons
    Vampire Weekend
    Damien Rice
    Jack White
    Tenacious D

    I'll change my mind immediately after posting this...

    And if they don't have to be alive I'd swap Johnny Cash for Jack White..

    I never even thought of the Beatles, they'd be top of my list. Not mad about MJ (don't hit me) lol, the Doors would be on my list too and Jeff Buckley and maybe Elliott Smith

    Oxegen wasn't on this year and don't know if it'll be back.. and you're not too old for it you mad thing.

    Oxegen was always super, but a seriously hard weekend

    -Jeff Buckley would be a little sad, but a beautiful voice, such a talent. My favourite artist, so he has to be on the list!

    Him and Johnnie Cash covering Hurt, there wouldn;t be a dry eye in the house
