mike patton
would be an amazing curator.
john zorn, bjork, dalek, etc
the twang
i think thurston should do it again
so good last xmas
or will oldham maybe
.
thurston
should never be allowed to curate a festival ever again or at least be a bit more eclecic in his choices
JULIAN COPE
please.
That would be ace.
Almost a game of 'how many old great krautrock bands can I get to reform?'
I'd
have a punt onna Julian Cope ATP...
Cope would be the greatest thing of all time
2nded
thurton should be punished for that weekend
NO
that was the best festival in the entire world.
*worst
^
I spent
so much time of last year eating because there was fucking NOTHING to watch. At the end I was clawing at the walls for some more melody!
Id like someone
who isn't a musicain to curate it - david lynch! Ha, yeah right.
why not?^
jake and dinos chapman did it!!
incidentally, there is an excellent
david lynch interview in the current issue of Empire magazine. i would be very curious as to who he might choose as curator of a music festival.
Yeah that interview is really interesting
god knows who he'd chose though - the music in his movies is usually very good.
MIKE PATTON
surely it's about fucking time. It is almost embarrasing he hasn't been asked yet.
so does anyone(jamie summers) know
whos currating yet?
i dont
but i've been given hints
and apparently the lineup will be pretty special
and the curator will
be announced pretty soonish
Duh
Give us the hints!
Wow
vague.
not special
in the way thurston's line up was special i hope...
bah!
portishead.they better pick some good shit.i somehow think they might do
i somehow think
there is no way i'm missing this
i have no interest
in portishead but i still heartily agree.
how soon are tickets likely to go on sale?
i'd give it a week or two
for barry and co to recover a bit?
Well...
seeing as tickets were still avaliable for ages after being released there doesn't have to be a mad rush to buy them as soon as they are released.
I'd probably wait for a few bands to be announced first.
same.
coughjuliancopecough
REALLY?
I'm getting tinges of excitement now.
First bands to be confirmed this week!
sunno))) ???
yep
boris
earth?
oooh
hmmmm...
that was in reply to
sunn o)))
portishead don't do much for me
but i don't think i could miss an atp now
actually
this is more correct. i'll pretend to be waiting for some bands to confirm that i love but i know i'll end up going anyway.
will just have to pack a hot water bottle
tickets on sale
for december!

anyone else
hoping for some more additions tonight?
Yep
news normally seems to arrive on a Friday afternoon / evening doesn't it.
im getting really really bored
looking at the atp website 3 times a day waiting for new additions.where are they barry?
I reckon
they're on their hols.
It has been 16 days
since the last update, boohoo! I WANT SOME NEWS!...... NOW! and if they are on their hols, hurry up bloody back! Thankyou!
They're probably still
recovering from Primavera if they feel anything like me 2 weeks on. Both myself and Barry are old gits though.
2-person double-bed chalets almost sold out
apparently:
http://www.atpfestival.com/events/portishead/news.php?view=646
update today.PLEASE!!!!!!!
Ha Ha Ha
Classic retort from ATP.
Oh and Om have confirmed.
haha
"This week we will be announcing more artists who have confirmed for the December event so you can stop crying that we dont update the site."
ATP Christmas 2007
How about Dumpy's Rusty Nuts or Badger Bell?
Dumpy's Rusty Nuts
would be perfect.
ATP Christmas 2007
Wouldn't the Pixies be ace as curators or MBV ?
I think
Fugazi would be great curators of ATP, something I'd love to see, but since they refused to play said festival a few years ago I imagine it would probably never happen.
nope
they only do/did free festivals
hmm
seems all the 2 person chalets are about to sellout! better be quick coupley people!
phew
wegottickets said it was sold out, but it processed
so you gotem?
yay!
so
i predict announcements for around 6pm.
if we dont get any, then barry is a lying badun.
'This week'
is a bit ambiguous, I predict tomorrow!
as i posted elsewhere
new additions:
Thurston Moore
Kling Klang
A Hawk And A Hacksaw
Ladytron
Thurston Moore's tempting
but so far not the best ATP line up.
a hawk and a hacksaw!
THURSTON AND MORE (!) ADDED TO THE NBC LINE UP.
Exciting news for you all.
We have just confirmed Thurston Moore will be playing at this year's Nightmare Before Christmas. Thurston will be playing music from his forthcoming solo LP, Trees Outside The Academy, the album was recorded at J Mascis’ studio and is due to be released in September. This will be his second self titled solo release, the first being 1995’s Psychic Hearts.
In addition to Thurston Moore, we have also confirmed the following :
Ladytron
A Hawk And A Hacksaw
Kling Klang
Boris
have been added
mega
good news
this is shaping up...
...very nicely.
:-O
Autolux
have also been added if anyone's interested.
this is the best news ever ^
Pavilion in December
If it's as cold as last year, it's going to need to be dancetastic to keep warm in there :)
It was bloody cold
in there wasn't it. Let's hope the Public Enemy rumour is true.
i am thinking
hot toddy action.
Did anyone else notice
that Glenn Branca was also added yesterday (in the same news item as Boris) and then all mention of him was removed? Weird.
hmm no
didnt see that. odd.
would be awesome actually
if they did an electric guitar ensemble piece... thurston has done one with him before...
I heard this
a pity
Hurrah!
Just booked my ticket for this. Panicked a bit when the site said 3 berths were selling quickly. I can't wait.
19 days till
i get paid and the party chalet buying commences :D
2 and 3 berths now sold out.
and only a few 7 berths left. Seems to be selling more quickly than last year. Looks like my panic last week wasn't misplaced after all.
:s
oh noes..
fuck
2,3 and 7 person chalets all gone!
this is selling so quick!
JAH SHAKA SOUNDSYSTEM !
wtf
oh arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh
Jah Shaka!
That really is a surprise...single-deck reggae action at ATP! The line-up just keeps getting better...can someone invite Linton Kwesi Johnson please?
if this sells out over hte weekend i'll be fucked off
if not i'll try to organise a challet on monday if there's any interest. i think one or two friends want to come if they can get the time off, but anyone wants to make it up to six i'll be on it.
let's not forget
that the vast majority of chalets are 4 beds
