There's lots of new bands being announced but still no sign of a definite list of who's playing what day and when.
Also, apparently Mott the Hoople have been advertised in Record Collector as a joint headliner on Sunday but there's no mention of this on the High Voltage web site.

A bunch of new names for the Metal stage has just been announced. High on Fire, Audrey Horne, New Device, Lethargy and Orange Goblin. Don't really know any of them except for Orange Goblin...

On March 31st they will announce the very special guests for the prog stage, fingers crossed for Camel!

Interesting. Interesting. If Focus end up bein' on Sunday, it may become possible for me to only buy a one day ticket. Asia, Transatlantik, Pendragon and the Answer were my sideline affairs.

But then again, would it really be proper to miss them?

I've ordered my ticket for the Sunday, sadly I made the wild assumption that, as ZZ Top and ELP were the only acts listed on specific days, everyone else was playing both days. There's nothing on the High Voltage web site to tell you who's playing which day - until you delve into the forum, that is. It transpires that Transatlantic (who I really wanted to see) are playing the Saturday (AngryCensored).
 
It seems the only way to find out who's playing which day is to check the artists' own web sites. If I get any info, I'll post it here.
