I'm making this because I don't want to study (you could say I am bored of studying :D....surely thats the millionth time someone's made that gag on here) and whilst the revived thread is a good idea its execution is boring. Everyone can just name their favourite artists n the lineup. So this is for if you want to create your Realistic Dream Festival Lineup.

Rules
1. Artists must be alive.
2. Try to follow the template realistically. You can bend it but not break it. For example there are two headliner spots, so realistically you can't have Bob Dylan, The Cure and Rage Against the Machine on the same lineup because that's three HUGE bands.

Here's the Template, feel free to not include some of the 'token' bands.

Two Headliners

Australian Headliner

One Large International Act - Just below Headliner material.

Nine Mid-Range International Acts

Seven "Aussie Filler" Acts

Token Electronica/Dance etc Act

Token Metal/Hardcore/Punk etc Act

Token Pop/"Top 40" Act

Token Old/ Reformed Act

Token Hip Hop/Rap Act

Token Comedy Act - Can be a comedian (e.g. David Cross) or a Comedic Band (e.g. The Mighty Boosh)

An Act that plays one of their albums in full - ala Don't Look Back concerts.
