I've missed this the last few years due to work and being away, a bit disappointed this year, had hoped to go but I don't 99% of the bands anounced this year ( :-[ )

You don't have to eat the chocolate - you can play with the toy inside.

Indeed. Part of the fun of the Siege is hearing bands you've never even heard of before and, perhaps, never ever want to hear again.

I'm really looking forward to Eddie Lenihan with From The Bogs Of Aughiska. His story time tales of CĂșchulainn on RTE 2 were enthralling when I was a young lad.

The Eddie Lenihan/FTBOA set will be interesting, Conjurer are unreal live. Used to live in the UK and they had a reputation of playing anywhere at anytime, they'll pick up a lot of new fans over here.
