For anyone in Melbourne who's been waiting with baited breath for the Harvest Timetable so they can start planning their journey out to Werribee this weekend, rejoice — the schedule for this Saturday's event is finally here. Any wranglings about who should or shouldn't be playing when someone else is playing appear to have been resolved, the schedule is ready for action, and fans can start planning their days right… now! Woo and, indeed, hoo.

The fact that Portishead are playing for an hour and a quarter on the Great Lawn stage while the Windmill stage is vacant (a fact about which we're saying absolutely nothing) has at least one fringe benefit for punters: you can see both the Flaming Lips and Portishead's sets in full. (Unless you're a Holy Fuck fan, in which we guess you're in for a tough decision.) Elsewhere, the schedule looks like it'll make for a pretty leisurely day roaming from stage to stage — excellent Sydney laptoptronica crew Seekae have the misfortune to clash with both TV On The Radio and Mercury Rev, and deciding between The National and Mogwai may be somewhat agonizing – but them's the breaks of a killer line-up, eh?

And in case you're wondering whether it's worth all the fuss to see Portishead, trust us — it totally is.
