I only saw 2 songs by Dino....I wasn't that into them. I thought they were OK before the fest and I still do. Which of the Dinosaur sets did you see?

Inhuman · 12.11.2006, 10:45 PM

I'm really into Dino, but when I saw them live I found it really boring

Iain · 12.11.2006, 10:54 PM

Yeah, dino jr weren't that great but I wasn't really in the mood because it was about 1:30 in the afternoon so I went and checked out the merch tables which, by the way, were quite badly organised. They had different stuff on as the day went on but you had no idea what was going to be appearing next and I didn't even realise they were there until Sunday(or was it Saturday?) And then I ate some fish and chips which were pretty mediocre at best.

And please grammar nazis, give me a break on this and the above post. It's late.

You should have sought the company of the other board members Cantaknerous. Toilet totally would have done a morris dance for you...

Iain · 12.11.2006, 10:56 PM

And thanks and congratulations to anyone who actually reads the above 2 chunks of late night babble of the the kind of magnitude which has not been posted by myself in a long time.

i didn't see anyone! i was in the same damn spot for hours and my back is killing me from standing around and being hunched over in airplanes and so forth.

krastian · 12.12.2006, 01:57 AM

Sounds like a blast!

SynthethicalY · 12.12.2006, 02:16 AM

She took a 35mm camera, kegmama.

i took that one and another really nice (new) nikon 35mm i got for my birthday. best cameras i've ever used. i thought they were going to take all my shit away in the airport. my digital is also a nikon, albeit a piece of shit, but it's old.

SynthethicalY · 12.12.2006, 02:33 AM

I heard nikon is not good for digital.

sonicl · 12.12.2006, 04:16 AM

I have the day off work today to properly recover (I am SO fucking tired! - far worse now than at any point over the weekend). I'm uploading a few more pics to photobucket and while that's doing I just thought I'd send out lots of love to all the people I met over the weekend:

Moshe
Greenlight (my roomie!)
Jon Boy
o o o
Bastian
Toxic Johnny
Naomi
Jennthebenn
Pantophobia
Iain
Pokkeherrie
Whorefrost
Nefeli
Tris1979
Toilet & Bowels
Moshe's friends from Israel (join the board guys, we're quite nice people)
and even Glice

It really was a pleasure.

I feel like I've missed some people out. No slight intended, I promise.

And sorry I didn't get to meet you, Katy. Maybe at some gig in London some time, eh?

Moshe · 12.12.2006, 04:28 AM

Best weekend ever! Here is Saturday's set list. More details later...

sonicl · 12.12.2006, 04:36 AM

You got home safe then, Moshe - excellent. Are you missing the rain yet?

Jane says hello. We're looking forward to our Israeli picnic this evening.

SY's merch was nothing to write home about. A few T-shirts, most of them old designs, and three or four side-project CDs. There was tons of excellent merchandise for bands on the smaller stages though. I picked up CD-Rs by Charalambides, Clint Takeda, Tom Carter and Soil Sing Through Me, a 3" CD by Gareth Hardwick, and the Ecstatic Peace "Sweet Release #" zine/CD.

greenlight · 12.12.2006, 07:39 AM

I pretty agree with most of what have been allready said. Nobody mentioned Magik Markers yet. I think they were interesting and good (maybe because it was first time i saw them). Yeah, Iggy and the Stooges were fucking excelent - real rock&roll with real entertaiment. Couldn't believe how Iggy still rocks in his age. And he is sexy mother....Nurse with Wound were ok, Melvins were good, bit dissapointed by SYs friday set (i catched the end of the their saturday set and it sounded so much better+better vibe), but still great, Dead C were excelent, they just played bit late for me (my body was ready for the rest at that stage). Deerhof were sweet. New Blockaders...wow, real dark noise, that's how i would call it. Don't know what to think of it. Love it or hate it. Brutal noise set (Thurston seemed to enjoying it). Hair Police were allright, Mats Gustaffson + EYE were excelent, so rest of the second evening on the second stage, Corsano/Flaherty/C Spencer Yeh, Peter Brotzman/Han Bennik were mindblowing, also MV/EE + The Bummer Road after Corsano joined them in the middle of their set. I liked Dinosaur Jr. very much (first time seeing them), MCIAA were fantastic (pissed me off that White Out with Nels Cline played same time), Barkhaze - excelent (man first time seeing Thurston doing his non sy stuff live), Notekillers were good, so Alexander Tucker, Six Organs Of Admittance, No-Neck Blues Band, Sunburned Hand Of The Man. Gang of Four were excelent as well.

Great weekend. So strange...you walk in the bar, or be shoping or just hang around and you see SY members walking around. I have pics with all sy members. They're so nice, especially Steve is really nice person (i have pic with him taken by Mark Ibold, hehe). Man, Thurston's palm is huge (we shake a hands).

Lots of love to all boardies. You are very nice.
Sonicl ( what can i say. thanks man, great weekend)
Moshe (man, how you do all that! you lucky, lucky!)
Jon Boy (hey man! hows yr. new job?)
o o o (men, that's unbelieveable how you met us - world is small)
Bastian (hi Bastian!)
Toxic Johnny
Naomi
Jennthebenn
Pantophobia
Iain
Pokkeherrie (can't wait for yr. recordings, enjoy yr. next festival!)
Whorefrost
Nefeli
Tris1979 (same here, can't wait for yr. recordings, good job you do man! Enjoy Brussels and Paris man!)

*edit*
disappointed with sy merch table - very, very poor.

oh yes, steve sheley told me that they're going to tour europe much more next year, which is great.

more sonic gossip from moshe and sonicl.

I think we should be thanking Barry Hogan as well. Thurston did a great job on the line-up, but this is about the millionth utterly brilliant festival that Hogan's had his oar in. The two festivals I've been to in the last year (ATP and Music Lover's Field Companion in Newcastle last year) were utterly outstanding. He's a credit to this fine nation, methinks.

I read from the blurb in the guide that they were trying to get Les Rallizes Denudes to play at ATP this time. It's a bit churlish to say, but that would've been utterly, totally awesome beyond belief.
