--- Quote from: tommydski on 26 Nov 2007, 08:45 ---I went to the Shellac-curated ATP back in 2002. It was the best thing that ever happened.

I recommend anyone in the UK to go at least once in their life. Sadly, there will never be another one as good as 2002.

It was good but the one curated by the Chapman brothers was excellent as well and that had Mike Watt and George Hurley performing the Minutemen Duet, which is as close as I'll ever come to seeing my favourite band play.

I'm really very underwhelmed by the line-up for the EITS ATP. The Paper Chase and Ghostface are the only really exciting people they have lined up and the rest all seem rather uninspired choices. On the other hand, this is in less than two weeks:

Excuse me as I kill myself.

They've just announced the times. No serious clashes, Aphex Twin is playing two sets (so are Portishead but you can only see one) and GZA is doing the Liquid Swords set. I'm more than a little excited.

Are you crazy?? A Hawk and a Hacksaw are killer, Eluvium is one of the best solo acts you can see, Lazarus are great, BSS are great (and even better live). Can someone, in the meanwhile, please explain to me the appeal of The Paper Chase? I've listened to two of their albums and seen them live twice and every time I hear them I like them less and less. An awful singer with awful stage presence and awful lyrics backed up by annoyingly discordant instrumentals...I just don't get it.
