Firstly no the music acts are not crap but neither are they headline acts, dj sets are usually found in a dance tent or used to fill gaps, not headline acts on main stage.
They may well sell tickets and some may even go and watch the little racing there will be but its new and people are naive. Many a festival etc has sold out in its first year then struggled afterwards before quietly disappearing.
Reading the music press they feel the festival bubble has or is about to burst, unfortunately the same maybe true of WRX until it goes electric. At least 2 of the European catagories are still strong but of course Silverstone don't have those.
