It's a dire line-up compared to the calibre of pre-2006. Much like this year there's no real big names. Not like Arctic Monkeys, Killers, Kaiser Chiefs, Franz Ferdinand, etc. Check out Wikipedia for decent NME gigs of the past.

I didn't really consider this worth the money. First off, I'm dubious of events that are NME-endorsed. Also, I agree with Jono that they lack a really big headliner and it seems to me like Friendly Fires, White Lies and Florence and the Machine are of about equal significance/insignificance.
