ATP Nightmare Before Xmas '07 (1 Viewer)

[Vinnie]

Why would you stay in a b&b if you've already paid for accomadation which is decent standard? Minehead seems big enough so i'd say there's a fair few b&b's about

Because I'm a weirdo

Thanks for the help everyone

Minehead is close. 10-20 mins walk to town centre. The Butlins isn't as isolated as Camber Sands one.

I wish they had played an ATP before Taylor passed away. Still, should be great.

Please note: SUNN will be performing different sets at both ATP and Forum. ATP will be "die-hard" edition and Forum concentrating on the new Directions spurred by recent album recording activities. Expect brand new material to debut there. Furthermore, Boris will be performing at ATP and Boris will be performing at Forum. The capitalization is crucial within the band's concept, the capital B emphasizing the ROCK, the lower case emphasizing the VISION.


Wha???

 

[I Bleed Black]

Pretty straight forward, just means there will be different sets at each gig. BORIS normally means heavy slugey drone where as boris means their softer more progressive experimetal side. They probably meant to write it like that.

Best news on the atp site is that Julian Cope will definitely play with sunn, sweet)))

So we'll be seeing Bruce Willis running around in a vest at ATP?

 

[george mcfly]

anyone got a spare chalet place for this?

am thinking it might be worth the trip

 

[Gambra]

We are really saddened to have to announce that Dick Dale is no longer able to play at ATP this December.
Due to health reasons his whole November and December tour has been cancelled. This is a real shame as we were very much looking forward to having Mr Dale play, as he was looking forward to playing. As a result we are currently looking for a replacement.
We send our best wishes to Mr Dale for a full and speedy recovery.
