You'll be lucky

Swearing to secrecy must be the first part of his initiation.


You'd think

You'd think


...

am guessing it will be Dec 12th, 13th and 14th and Mike Patton will be curating.

Don't quote me on it though - am doing nothing more than conjecturing.


no, Jamie told me it is definitely not Mike Patton

but that it will make me very very excited.


Tom Waits!

Please?


Boredoms

anything but Mike Patton


^this


My money's on

My Bloody Valentine curating.


When

Do ticket's normally go on sale for this? I need to lose my ATP virginity!


Jamie just PMed me

Alphabeat are curating.

Junior Senior are their first confirmation.


i would love if if either

of them played


Here's hoping

that Teenage Jesus & The Jerks and Throbbing Gristle will play! No idea who the curator will be though.


...........................................................

Chunklets 15th Anniversay perhaps??


that

would be ace


yes I have got

the Harvey Milk "Courtesy..." chunklet vinyl reissue. :D


\m/

I'm too cheap to buy it again :(
The Pleaser 2LP is available from Chunklet now too.


Tempting

Although I haven't heard it. How does it compare?


It's a rock and roll record

70s style. Not too slow or sludgy but the songs are really good. And it has 'Lay My Head Down' on it which is one of the best HM songs I reckon. The second and fourth songs on the myspace http://www.myspace.com/harveymilk are from it.


Sounds awesome

70s rock & roll? They're good at that too.


Chunklet have something new in the works

not sure they'd curate an ATP though?


i'd...

love to see Teenage Jesus and the Jerks!


I wonder if it's Scott Walker

Last thing I heard about him he was writing an album which would more thsn likely be performed live. Fingers crossed eh?


*than


Unlikely

I love Scott, but I cant imagine he'd pick much that I was interested in.


Boards Of Canada

please.
Thank you.


warp records

please


hellame


Melvins..

..I believe and Mastodon are playing


I heard...

Mike Patton vs The Melvins

Bands so far: Slayer, Squarepusher, Neil Hamburger. Yikes.


some of these things

people have heard might not be true...wait and see!


fucking brilliant weekend

got an amazing picture of brendan canning and klaire roberts in pikachu costume. will put online later!


:D


it was fantastic

i guessed that the pikachu-hat wearing girl was claire but wasnt sure enough to say hi.

did the DiS meet-up happen friday night? i was told i met a couple people, but cant remember anything after ten except looking at an exibition with lucyjay from these here boards.

envy and worlds end girlfriend were incredible, as was singing 'holland, 1945' in a chalet with random american/canadian band people at 5am sunday morning


if slayer play

will there be, like, actually, like moshing and stuf?


No everyone will stand and muse like the giant pussies they are

You and me reece. You and me. Let's raise some hell.


Melvins

would be fucking awesome!


i heard a rumour

that it was one man curating


I was trying to get that Alec Empire rumour

offa the ground all weekend...


No it is...

*** *******!

xxxxxxxxxxxx

Nice.


andrew wk?

.


mackaye fits the second

aren't we clever.

Ian Astbury?

i heard a rumour that it was going to be shellac

featuring the beatles on cd


who wants to share a chalet with me

i am booking this time off work as soon as i start my new job.


Do u like

Heavy Rock?

If so im there!!.
x


ive never been in a party chalet

maybe one should be arranged?


David Shrigley

thanks


hi.


Lord no


don't lie


With Pikachu?

= party.


please someone heavy

please

not indie boy shrigley.


^this

All festivals should be heavier.


Nick Cave

with The Birthday Party


Punk Rock

please.


Bjork should curate

I can only think of a few bands that she'd be likely to book, which could make for an unpredictable line up...


^ I've also thought this for a while

I think it would be so eclectic it'd make for a really interesting line up.


$$$$$$$


I decided

Cave In would possibly be my ideal choice even though I know full well that won't happen anytime soon.


SO WHEN DOES IT GET ANNOUNCED?

I'm tearing out my hair in anticipation.


soon young philip

soon


we all know what you mean by 'soon', though

and it rhymes with 'mages away'


Is it going to Games Workshop?

Mages Away to headline?


Who's that band with space marines

on their album cover?

And will there be any girls at this ATP?


Arno Corps?

and no.


no

the letter they send out makes it very clear on that point:

"What YOU Need To Provide!
You need to provide your own FOOD, DRINK, WOMEN, TOILETRIES including TOWELS/TOILET PAPER, HAIRDRYERS, and STRAIGHTENING IRONS etc etc."


^

As revealed in this very thread way up there somewhere...


oh

yeah.

oops. i only read the top bit and the bottom bit.


I can't stand it

I need to know if this is in fact true. NOW.

Cause if it was I would absolutely wet myself.


They should do a co-curate

with Wire magazine. Or better still get Wire to do the whole damn thing.


Ahhhhh if it was the Melvins...

I could go with another group of friends than this year!


i think you should curate it

and it could just be a series of silent shows as no one can talk to each other, or something :P


Plan

Could have a charades stage, and maybe a sign language gig in reds or something.

Best get Summers on the case.


minehead please

i love both sites equally, but it was hellish getting back from camber after pitchfork. plus, any crumbs of home comfort accomodation-wise would be gratefully received while in the grip of a harsh english winter.

and more people can go, of course...


I like Camber

as it was the first place I went to for ATP but Butlins is a better site sizewise and the chalets are nicer. Also the flumes are brilliant!


I love Minehead.

Am unlikely to return to Camber, whilst there is a mInhead option. However I guess its easier to get bands to Camber due to its proximity to London/airports/ferry ports, rather than what must be a pretty arduous drive to North somerset for most people (not me though - selfish).


i've been to three ATPs at minehead now

and still never found time to go swimming. this is another good reason to hold NBC there.

i think centre stage is my favourite of the five venues, too. big capacity and loads of vantage points. they really need to move that hotdog stand though, the onion stench gets pretty oppressive...


this

about the onions is true. although watching the GZA get one of them last NBC was kinda cool


I prefer Camber

It was great going back for Pitchfork. Smaller, more intimate venues (I'm not really one for bigger stages). No burger king and Pizza Hut - yay! Definately more social of the 2 sites as everone hangs out outside the Queen Vic. Never a queue and really easy to get to the front for any band that plays. + Its the spiritual home of ATP.

But, saying that, I think it'll be at Minehead for more numbers.


Ah...the

big ATP sell-out. Of course Camber is better. Bags more atmosphere.


I heard

it was ATP vs Upset the Rhythm, don't know where that came from though...


i highly highly doubt this would be the case

but if it was UTR to curate, that'd be great as high chances are it'd be full of stuff i want to see!


i heard

it was me, al and sim told me so i'll believe them!
