The GGI is on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 16,17,18 of september in Groningen, north Holland. After severeal false starts these dates are confirmed so it's time to start thinking about going, getting there etc.
Theres a lot of Dutch and groningen bands playing and also some irish / scottish bands playing - i dont have the full line up as some last minute enquiries are still being made but heres what I know for definite, a lot of what i know is form the freebooters playing so more will become apparent from other people im sure, the main thing is that it is definetly on these days and is looking like a cracker of a weekend.
Friday's gig is in a venue called the Vera, a deadly venue with really good pa and seperate downstairs bar.
Defo Playing on the Friday are Moutpiece and two other irish bands to be confirmed - pierre lice was on the case yesterday on this so will have more details by weekend.
Saturdays gig is in a big squat and will have a load of bands playing - defo playing saturday from ireland are the Freebooters and Runnin Riot and I know this is the day Fleas and Lice are playing
Sunday will consist of a major session / party probably by the lake during the day and in the squat at the evening time.
to get to groningen its a train and plane job, aer lingus to amsterdam and train to groningen or ryanair to eindhoven or hamburg and train or basiq air to rotterdam and train.
more details as they come in.
ps obviously maoz falafel shops, cheep beer and coffee shops are part of the groningen experience as well as the infamous anatomy musuem. oh and fc groningen are playing psv eindhoven at home on the sunday - dont know what the story would be with tickets etc.
