me too. this weekend is bardo pond and then magik markers and jackie o motherfucker (both of whom i have seen before a few times anyway)

me too. as far as i hear they are which is much better then having to dash between places in the rain.

Stage one is definitely in a building on its own. I don't know whether stages two and three are together in the same building or not.


EDIT - Stages two and three are in separate buildings too. Don't forget to pack a raincoat, folks!

I have SY vs Comets vs Markers dilemmas but the biggest dilemma for me is Sun City Girls vs Gustaffson/eYe vs Blood Stereo!

go here.

in the skyline pavilion there's one stage.. in the building behind it (the one that has "entertainment" written on it) are the red stage and a center stage... the one in the skyline pavilion is called center stage too

Do you want to swap SY evenings? That would (partially) resolve your SY vs Comets vs Markers dilemma and my SY vs Bardo Pond vs Charambides dilemma all in one convenient go.

they have 10 pin bowling!

Yes, indeedy! If I knew how a bowling league worked, I'd offer to organise one.

we should just play. because the bands start late we could do that then check out the noise.

I think that the Crazy Horse stage is in the "Bars and Pubs" area.

i dont think any of us will really know until we get there.

Oooh. An air of mystery. <- please imagine that this is written in spooky writing

To be honest, and I know this is heretical around these parts, but my main dilemma here is between Comets and Markers....do I stay in stage 2 and see Comets or try and muscle my way into the Markers on the tiny stage? And SY clash with Bardo and Charalambides on the other day which is almost the same dilemma for me. I really don't think I'll see SY at this fest...have seen them before and haven't seen any of the bands they clash with...

the place is haunted you know. all those red coates that died. so i hear. at night if you listen you can hear them shouting hi-de-hi in a ghostly way.

*note* unless you are british and of a certain generation you probably wont get that joke, my apologies.

Will there be redcoats? And redcoatees? (Slight Billy Childish influence there ;))

Thee Redcoatees...that should be the Butlins house band.

with a name like Crazy Horse you'd think so, but when you click on it it doesn't mention a performance stage though... just
Sun and Moon Pub
Bar Rosso (oh la la!)
Hotshots Sports Bar
Jak
Swinging Shillelagh

I'm guessing two of the stages are in the entertainment building, but that's just speculation....

Should I start a wrist band swapping thread?

as long as no car keys change hands.

...or chalet room keys.

eeew, that would get nasty.. SY board members swinging at ATP.
