Is This The Worst Festival Ever?

Festivals are - by and large - terrible affairs. But at least you're generally offered a glimpse of someone half decent to make up for the dysentery and downpours. Well, here's one that's bucking that trend with admirable abandon. The Live Nation / o2 Wirelesss Festival 2008 appears to have not one single band anyone in their right mind would ever want to see. In fact, they seem to have plumped for artists that most people feel so unengaged with they wouldn't even accept a freebie in case they missed something midly diverting on telly, never mind actually pay cash money - £40! - to "experience" them all...
