fucking hell at home i feel like a tourist!! in the uk all those bands!!!!

What does Jackie O sound like?
Nice lineup!

Jackie O' Motherfucker are an amazing group of sound artists. The albums vary though. Some of them are quite abrasive and others are quite pretty. It depends. Great lineup. The mother fucking MELVINS with the guys from big business playing probably.

HAVE FUN you lucky bastards

Insane lineup.

Lucky English bastards.

Very cool- thanks for the review.

Don't worry about the Melvins, though- at least you can see them later this fall. They're planning a big tour, and they usually end or start in California (near Tarzana, I assume.) Buzz's wife designed a toy they're going to be selling on the tour, among other things.

Fuck Yeh I'm going, it's gonna be the best weekend of my life. When I bought my ticket (months ago) I had fantasies of Dinosaur Jr. being added, but I never imagined the Melvins would be there.
Thurston's choice is impeccable.

Why can't I find any Melvins records in my local stores? I'm not one to do a lot of special ordering, unless it's something I really, really want. I figure that helps control the habit a little, since there's always something in the bins to buy anyway. So I've been like looking for years, and nothing ever shows up. What's the deal? Is everything they've ever done out of print?

I've just booked my 4 berth chalet for this mean-ass motherfucker of a festival. Not cheap.. but hey, that's the benefit of being in gainful employment.

The wait is already killing me.

oh great, dinosnore jr. hurry up and add hijokaidan and fushitsusha!

You wish!

I think all the interesting bands have been picked now I think. Last few announcements have been yawnful stuff like Gang of Four, MC5 and Dino Jr. Not necesarrily bad bands or anything but reunions which usually means boring. I'm fairly sure I'll go and watch whatever is on one of the other stages when those 3 are on.

insane lineup indeed!
cant wait to see sy, mciaa live!

And NNCK. You forgot NNCK.

And Arthur Doyle.

You forgot them. With your mind.

NNCK should be playing there... last month at a gig of theirs i had two band members separate from each other telling me they would be playing there...

i want to see the boredoms being added.

I'd like Sunroof! or some other Matthew Bower type project and maybe Vibracathedral Orchestra as well.

well, i say add hijokaidan & fushitsusha, but i have no idea if i'm actually going to be able to make it to ATP or not

I booked my chalet when the only announced artists were Thurston and Iggy (et Co.).

Everything else is gravy... noisy abrasive sledgehammer-migraine-inducing GRAVY. I love it.

God bless Thurston and all who sail in him.

As for Iggy.. I'd beg steal kill and die for Iggy. And have. I'd even go to Butlins for him. Oh yes.

the markers are also on the bill as far as i know......

im praying some japanese bands get added.

BeYour Own Pet Confirm!!!
