    iTunes Festival 2012
    Uh, I couldn't find a thread for this (apologies if there is one) so I decided to create one. So what are people's thoughts on the line-up and what, if any, tickets have you applied for?

    Pretty poor so far. No-one I'd want to see.

    Yeah, it's not great. I've only applied for Noel Gallagher and Biffy so far.

    The worst line up yet definitley- no-one I'm dying to see, except perhaps Noel Gallagher as he often does Oasis songs. Applied for a few others- Ed Sheeran, Emile Sande, Plan B, David Guetta and Deadmau5 as its free but having second thoughts now about the Guetta and Deadmau5 as they are just DJ's.

    I'm also only interested in Noel Gallagher's HFB. I don't think anything can beat Foo Fighters last year. One of the best gigs I've ever been to.

    I've won tickets for Example and Deadmau5 which I'm pretty pleased with. Can't believe the Killers are playing though, the line up suddenly got great.

    Happy the line up got better. Now hoping to win tickets to either Noel Gallagher's HFB, The Killers or Mumford & Sons. I've also applied to see Pink but would rather see the other 3.

    They do a different artist each day so you'll have missed some of the acts, but not others.

    I entered for the Killers via Metro as I really really really want to see them. Haven't got round to entering via metro for any others this year. And its possible the app isn't working today because its a bank holiday so no metros are printed.

    Ah! That would explain it. Yeah a lady from Metro emailed me even though they asked for my phone number. They said iTunes would be in contact but they haven't. Curious.
