Vasco Rossi is a Godzilla-sized rock star in his home country of Italy. Inaccurately dubbed the Italian Bruce Springsteen (by me, just then), Rossi has an uncanny knack of selling out vast stadiums with little effort. Rossi has published 21 successful albums and written over 130 songs and the distinctive Rossi shout has been echoing around Italy since 1977. Click here for tickets.

Getting bigger and bigger all the time, The Sunshine Underground are threatening to hit a mainstream near you soon. They might have to change their name. The band are noted for not enjoying big gigs but rather smaller, more intimate venues in which they can create a house-party atmosphere. Let’s see how that translates as their venues get progressively larger like an embarrassing public woody. Click here for tickets.

David Gray, a musician able to produce A) songs so remorselessly sad that the Government were considering releasing his albums as a method of population control, and B) songs so unflinchingly cheery that the grins can only be removed from fans’ faces with a crow-bar, has announced a tour.

Graham Coxon is a show-off. There, I said it.
Blur wasn’t enough for him, oh no, he had to go off and produce a range of critically acclaimed, fan-favourite albums, including a concept album ‘The Spinning Top’ that’s actually good (honestly, who does that? Concept albums are supposed to be crap). He’s a painter, can play a million instruments, records albums on his tod, designs the artwork for his sleeves and let’s face it, he probably fights crime in his spare time.
He’s on tour with his new group too. Click here for tickets.

Nice but dim pop chunk Peter Andre is touring. Possibly as some form of therapy but more likely to keep his kids, Gherkin, Jampot and Princess Handbag (I think that’s their names) in pot noodles and nappies. He needs the cash, bless him. Click here for tickets.

Humungus bands, wrestling with uncooperative tents, night-time Mexican shout-waves from tent to tent, being completely lost, weird art, the ability to say “oh, yeah, I saw them in Glastonbury back in 2010”, mad circus folk, porta-loos that defy description, silly hats, midnight antics, the which-band-to-see dilemma, dancing by firelight, strange and wonderful people, smugly swigging from your own stash of booze, discovering new bands, avoiding arrest, more music and, very possibly, mud.

Catchy Song? That’s them. Click here for tickets.
