Must be that time of the week, then. What with new additions to the Matt Groening-curated ATP being announced yesterday, and a handful of additions to the ATP vs. Pavement bill being released JUST NOW, we (read: those actually going to either or both of these festivals) are being spoiled.
Today's confirmations are a pretty wide bunch, which is what we like to see. Still needs more Hip-Hop though. Additions below:
Boris Boris performing Feedbacker Camera Obscura Mark Eitzel Monotonix The Dodos Venom P. Stinger Wax Fang Tim Chad Horse Guards Parade Still Flyin’
Who join those already previously on the bill:
Pavement The Walkmen Atlas Sound The Authorities Blitzen Trapper Broken Social Scene Calexico The Clean The Drones Enablers Endless Boogie The Fall Faust The Fiery Furnaces Grails Marble Valley Mission of Burma Omar Souleyman Pierced Arrows Quasi The Raincoats Saccharine Trust Sic Alps Spiral Stairs The 3Ds Wildbirds & Peacedrums Wooden Shjips
11/10.
The festival takes place at Butlins, Minehead from May 10 to May 13. Tickets are already sold out so, unless you want to engage in some kind of unofficial ticket buying, you might find it difficult to gain entrance lawfully.
