Okay, time for me to throw in a couple of cents. For festivals, I find the bands with recent album initiatives to make the most interesting acts - if I had a lot of money anyway I would rather invite old heroes to a more intimate club concert.
 
Day 1:
1. Twisted Into Form (N)
2. Beyond Twilight (DK)
3. Porcupine Tree (UK)
4. The Mars Volta (US)
 
Day 2:
1. Panzerpappa (N)
2. Uzwa (FI)
3. One Shot (FR)
4. Univerz Zero (BE)

Sorry because I'm jumping out of theme but If I win the lottery, I would rather then organise prog rock festival, resurect philosoher Epictetus and spent few days in his summer kamp. That would be (prog) music for my ears. LOL
