know this should probaqbly go in the festivals section, but i feel like a rebel without a cause after seeing the line up posted just now
Mogwai
Skeletons and the kings of our cities
magik markers
Dirty projectors
clinic
errors
andrew bird
Jamie Lidell
many more
excited just a little
hmm
thanks for the heads up. Have they scaled things down this year? I'm sure it used to last more than three days, plus the line up isn't enticing me as much as previous years
Thanks to FOPP sponsering Triptych last year
I got to see Damo Suzuki live for free on my 21st birthday! (and Ratatat and CSS the day after)
Triptych ist good!
no its not as great
but been wanting to see dirty projectors and jamie lidell for a while.
Triptych also means its the start of festival season in edinburgh.
this then the film festival then 'the' festival
yeah not so good
as previous years from my point of view. but a few things worth checking out none the less.

I love Triptych
best festival north of Camber Sands, shame you can't buy a ticket for the whole thing! I'm looking forward to Dirty Projectors hella lots. Even though the lineup isn't as wowamazing as other years, i hardly ever make it to everything i want anyway!
well i see you there
if you going to the cab vol friday date.
pretty gutted skeletons aren't playing in edinburgh
Its the day before my birthday
so yes i will be there, there will be celebrating. I love how triptych is ALWAYS on my birthday too, makes for good birthday gigs.
although
the glasgow date actually on my birthday looks amazing. maybe i'll go to that..hmmm
go to that!
my mates band are playing
he didnt mention that even though i spent the whole weekend staying at his house.. i might come up for it
which band
?
the parsonage
..no one exciting really
actually just looking at the full line up
i know quite a few people playing and djing
I am definitely going to go to dirty projectors
and probably going to go to andrew bird, and maybe mogwai and magik markers. yes.
that glasgow
mogwai, clinic dirty projectors magik markers show looks ace if only it didn't clash with jamie lidel
slightly gutted
at the complete lack of bass clef in edinburgh
dirty projectors and errors i reckon should be alright..
yay
I'm going to be up there for the Friday -> Sunday, so looking forward to what this year has to offer.
time to go see where i'll need to stay for the weekend.
looks like glasgow is the place to be
for saturday & sunday's all day type things.
seems substantially scaled down which is a shame really.
YES!!!!
YES YES YES YES YES
Hmm
the Mogwai, DP, Clinic, Errors show looks like it could be good. Tramway's pretty small though, eh
I will go
and see chrome hoof and bass clef but I am really not that fussed about anyone else.
Wow. Pretty disappointing
Line up then.
is this may?
everything's going on in may.
oh, it's april
...
is this
the last year the festival will run?
piss poor
line up, I think we're lucky there's always decent gigs going on most of the time so no need to complain
Yeah, i think it may be
I noticed a 'last ever' party going on in Glasgow. Guess Tennents will plough all the money into T In The Park instead.
real shame if it is the last year
but given the name of the show on the final night....
yeah, the line up isn't a patch on previous years apart from the two all day/evening type affairs in Glasgow.
Not sure why it has gone to pot, funding/sponsorship I guess, as previously I'd have said almost all the shows I'd been to had been pretty full (but then maybe the others have been poorly attended).
oh no!
I didn't know that. It would really be a great shame to lose Triptych.
I am deeply excited about:
SAT 26.4.08
3.00pm Mogwai, Clinic, Dirty Projectors, Malcolm Middleton, Errors, Frightened Rabbit, Magik Markers, Correcto, RememberRemember Tramway
Glasgow £21.00 BOOK NOW
as just the other day I was thinking it's been quite a while since I saw Mogwai. I'd like to see a David Shrigley DJ set too - he has good taste from what I can gather.
^ i want to hit that
but £22.50 is alot given i've seen Mogwai and Dirty Projectors several times each in the past 18 months
^ that sounds pretty special ^
I MUST CLEAR MY SCHEDULE.
