A quick skim through, might do something like this, of course it won't work out this way though.
Friday
Hives (other) Goat (west holts) Black Angels (williams green) Vaccines (pyramid) Seasick Steve (west holts) The Horrors (park)
Saturday
The Others (Williams Green) Jagwar Ma (peel) ed harcourt (park) the strypes (peel) Elvis Costello (pyramid) Primal Scream (pyramid) Rolling Stones (pyramid) Goat (hell stage shangri-la)
Sunday
matthew E white I am kloot Vaccines (williams green, probably wont get in/near the stage for that) P.I.L (other stage) public service (williams green) evan dando (avalon) smashing pumpkins (miss start - other stage) bobby womack (miss start - west holts)
Evan Dando/Smashing Pumpkins/Nick Cave all on around the same time. There is also a shitload of stuff I could see instead of the Stones but I feel like I can't miss it. According to clashfinder there's 90 minutes between primal scream finishing and the stones starting, wtf?
What do people recommend for the Wednesday/Thursday, and after midnight Friday-Sunday? I went in 2011 but hardly done any of the away from main music things, mainly down to how impossible it was to walk with the mental weather. I know Baggy Mondays is meant to be good (is there anything else like this on the other days?).
Go through the stage lineups on the site, it'll take an hour but you'll find plenty of little things. Think there's a motown party somewhere one night, guilty pleasures (cheese-fest) fatboy slim DJing, Goat are on late one night. Usually the best after hours things I've found have been by accident. Found a full size wrestling show one night at 2am, really hope its there again this year
Aye I've got Fatboy Slim pencilled in, theres a secret set on after him as well which gets announced on Thursday apparantly. People on efestivals suggesting all sorts of things like Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk etc doing a DJ set, could be anyone though. Is there a best area in general to go for the out of hours shit?

See a bit of Goat and in works fine on the intraweb in TCOTU. They were the fucking bollox last night btw.
No offence to Karlos but apart from BDI earlier I'm pretty glad I skipped it. I'm too old to fucking about in the rain. This opinion will probably change a few times over the weekend though.
Just watching the coverage on BBC3 here, i know they'll only be showing the main stages and better known bands and avoiding all the cool stuff elsewhere but the crowd appears to full of squares in Topshop 'festival chic' listening to bands they like cause they love one of their songs cause it appeared in an advert.
