Babyshambles and British Sea Power will headline the first ever NME Weekender - a new indoor festival taking place between 5th-7th November 2010 at Pontins Holiday Park in Sussex.
The UK festival season has been blighted with unpredictable weather in recent years leaving campers wet, muddy and naffed off as the festival becomes more about survival than seeing the bands you love. The NME Weekender will be all about the music - three days packed to the hilt with over 30 of the best live bands and DJs around across indoor stages which the weather can’t spoil.

Up until a month ago I would have jumped at the chance to see Aerosmith live. But that was before my wild-goose chase… before that moment when I was a mouse-click away from making a cyber-klutz of myself.
Now, the way I’m feeling, I wouldn’t go and see them if Sharon Stone came to pick me up in a chauffeur-driven stretch limo… OK, well maybe I’d be tempted if I could sit opposite the star of Basic Instinct on the way to the gig; but there again, knowing my luck, she’d probably turn up wearing jeans.
