  This year's line up is just not doing it for me. . . I'm sure there will be some great music and I know the greatest pleasure usually comes from the unexpected at womad, and so I don't like watching youtube videos to try to see what I'll like. . .but I do need something to draw me in. . . but after almost 20 womad festivals, this line up is just not inspiring me to go. . . anyone else feel the same?

  There is nothing that is a 'must see' for me except Mr Plant! I'm hoping that Mr Plant's band will produce something unexpected and the non musical aspects will swing it. I did see that Holly Cook vid, I was impressed with her.
  I thought 2010 was amazing but didnt expect it to be so dont give up hope Mr Beef.
  I will get a ticket but have not done so yet.

  I don't really care who I see or don't see, it will all be shiny and I'm very easily distracted.Lets face it wherever you go you can hear music anyway

  Must sees for me so far:
  Alaev Family
  Jimmy Cliff
  Femi Kuti
  LoJo

  Probably sees:
  Robert Plant
  Deolinda

  But i'm expecting to hear some stuff i'd never heard of before that blows me away. That's what usually happens at WOMAD.
