I've just been reading (3 days after it was announced) that V Festival will be discontinued. I've just had a quick look over some of the old line-ups and judging by what I saw, we really had it good back in 1996. Not only did we get Pulp but Supergrass, Lightning Seeds, Shed Seven, Elastica and Super Furry Animals as well. 1997 was great too with Blur, Beck, Teenage Fanclub and Mansun. Even a few of the later ones still saw the likes of Ash, the Manics and Gomez. Unfortunately, I think it's gone downhill in the past 10 years since the likes of Will Young, Peter Andre and Justin Bieber were introduced...
