Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone and everyone. Except in person, as that'd be scary.

Hi Simon, still not made my mind up about Summer Sundae this year as yet - only Lightspeed Champion and Of Montreal are tempting me of the line-up so far.
I'm giving some thought to Indietracks, though, will you be going again this year?

Hi Simon, will no doubt bump into you lots at Summer Sundae. Maps and Wild Beasts is the most irritating clash I've spotted thus far - both on at 5pm on Saturday!

Thanks for the heads up about S-E-B at Summer Sundae, Simon. I s'pose it'll be too much to ask for some old theaudience numbers from her...but I'll still probably holler for 'em anyway!

I think with Ben and Jenni it may depend on whether they get Glasto tickets or not, but I've left a comment on his MySpace to get him to give it some thought.

Booked my tickets for Summer Sundae today, Simon, so presumably will catch up with you at some point there. Line-up not tremendously exciting as yet but the prospect of a headline set from The Pipettes appeals tremendously!
