It's Bestival this weekend on the Isle of Wight with headline acts Amy Winehouse and Underworld. But there's so much more to this fun, crazy 'boutique' festi.

Radio One DJ and festival founder Rob da Bank has gathered together a huge line-up of diverse acts that will guarantee a knockout weekend.

Says Rob: 'It's such a nailbiting experience unleashing our line-up to the faithful Besti family but I can honestly say this year's is my favourite so far – underground and experimental business from Aphex Twin to My Bloody Valentine, funky stuff from George Clinton and Jamie Lidell, and now we can add new kids on the block Black Kids, Laura Marling and Santogold, techno legends Laurent Garnier and Carl Craig, Bestival veterans of four years out of five and our musical mascots Hot Chip, The Coral with a special acoustic set and the finest female, nay solo, performer out there Amy Winehouse.

'Also, we're ecstatic that Underworld are back taking up their rightful position in a Sunday night headline slot. Not to mention an acid brass band, a cockney knees-up every night and umm, more toilets!'

As ever party fun is top of the agenda for Bestival, so there'll be plenty of hands in the air action with a veritable who's who of DJs including Radio One's Zane Lowe and Annie Nightingale.
