Due to its popularity the previous year, the Healthy T arena was retained for the festival, hosting numerous stalls supplying nutritious and healthy food in comparison to the various fast food vans that operate throughout the main arena.
The Horrors, who were due to play early on the Saturday, pulled out late due to one of the band's members falling ill. On the Sunday, several of the earlier bands had to change their time slots by roughly an hour to cover the non-appearance of The Game.
Ladyhawke also pulled out of her slot due to flu-like symptoms and was replaced by a second performance by Dundonian band The Law.
The festival was put into further disarray in the evening with the possibility that Blur would pull out at the last minute due to guitarist Graham Coxon being apparently ill in hospital with food poisoning.
Rumours circulating at the time suggested that the band had in fact fallen out before their set, but this was later denied.
