Marillion and Steve Hackett aren't big names? There's also Big Big Train, The Flower Kings, PFM and Flying Colors who aren't exactly obscure in the world of prog either. 

Anyway, if it wasn't for the cost and the fact that I have food allergies (for lack of a better term) I would go. 


They are. When the announcement of the lineup first came out on their Facebook page, they weren't listed. I had assumed that the big-name headliner acts would be disclosed first, to catch peoples attention. They could have done a better job of disclosure.

I don't know Baraka but are they really on the same level as most of those other bands?

Flying Colors
Big Big Train 
Adrian Belew

So they announced the lineup for 2024 when 2023 hasn't even happened yet?

They haven't even finish announcing all of the bands yet.. Plus, seeing Yes with Jon Davison doesn't really seem right to be honest with you. He's great, but after seeing Jon Anderson playing with those kids... That felt right.

I'm thinking of going for the 2024 edition. Who else here is interested in going? Lineup is looking good right now so far! Big smile
