Yes I did!

Went to a couple of the early ones (2nd, 3rd I think) and only done day visits recently, but went for the full weekend this year. Very hot and dusty. Excellent line up for what I wanted. Saw all of these lot:
Mykki Blanco (Fun)
Mystery Jets (mehh)
Dennis Bovell (Bonkers)

Adam Buxton (too silly)
Lime Garden (good)
Dry Cleaning(ok but shouldn't be on Main stage)
Madra Salach (wonderful, seeing them at NAC)
Last Dinner Party (Too flirty, got tiresome)
David Byrne (Superb theatrical celebration)

Temples (ok)
West Side Cowboys (ok)
Just Mustard (Too load, boring)
Beta Band (not their best but enjoyable)
Getdown Services (funny, bonkers, energetic. Shouldn't have been clashed with Wet Leg)

Undertones (only passing through the area for us)
Beth Orton (she's nice, a bit chilled for me, I nodded off)
Peter Hook (has put a rock edge to JD and NO,not for the purist but I enjoy)
St Etienne (not really that good, ok for old time's sake. Seeing them at Cambridge soon...hmmm)
Self Esteem (Only saw a bit, its a good show but we were doing other things0
Flaming Lips (Excellent, bonkers, silly, joyous a riot of noise and colour)

We went a bit crazy and went for a pre setup tent in the PinkMoon area, well worth it between a couple or group. Location, quality, facilities.

General stuff:
Traffic and parking was ok
Everywhere was dusty
Beer choice was appalling, only Bud in most outlets
a couple had Camden Hells and only 2 days of IPA. shocking
They need to think about more covered areas away from the stages, it was bloody hot!

I always think Latitude is expensive if you're looking for big headliners names. If you're searching out new artists they could be there, but that in-turn means it should be cheaper.
Still good though.
this is first year, for a long time that I purchased our tickets a long time ago. I often have just grabbed some a few days before, might do that again next year.

Well you asked!!
