A new weekly post for this summer where we guide you through the sets you should be seeing at British festivals the following weekend. Please note that a) we cannot be held responsible for clashes and b) we haven't heard and judged every band here, most of the locals will have been judged on their stated influences and whether their blurb didn't make us feel physically sick. We accept no responsibility if the unknowns turn out to be rotten.
