Do you remember the good old days before the ghost town ..  Last year's attempts to keeps things going proved fairly fruitless so I think we'll have to accept this as a seasonal forum. Here's to Fleet Foxes headlining in '09  Oh, and I should probably be wishing Happy New Year to the next person to read this! |

Christ! I just saw the heading and thought some crazy dude was suggesting that the hideous 1970s Radio 2 'comedy' band the Tumbleweeds should be on next year's bill. Saw Fleet Foxes the other week in Brum - totally awesome. Can I just take this opportunity to say (in addition to FF) Giant Sand, Jeffrey Lewis, Jonathan Richman, Voluntary Butler Scheme, Nat Johnson, Shortwave Set and Inara George (Lowell's daughter) would be cool for next year. Anyone checked oiut the long-range weather forecast for next August yet - perhaps i should start a new thread . . . . :-) Merry Xmas!  |

Who mentioned the weather!?!
You gorn and woken me up now.
It's all part of the natural flow of things isn't it. August.. sit in tent in wet field in pi**ing rain drinking warm beer deciding whether to go out get soaked to see band or open another can. November..sit in cold house up a hill in middle of freezing fog with COLD beer deciding whether to open another or have a shave and go over the bleeding Bowls Club for the Altzeimer' Association annual buffet and dance. Featuring that well known singing combo- the lifeguards. Don't talk to me about tumbleweeds mate. There's two of them rolling down the road as I write.. I think one's got a bass, and the other is carying a Japanese Telecaster copy. His dads carrying the amp. If you like I'll nip over and ask them what they're doing towards the end of August next year... THEY'D BE BETTER VALUE THAN THAT DONOVAN I can tell you.
Right, I'm off to the woods to do a burnt offering for three days of sunshine next August. If you don't hear from me again I went over the Bowls club and forgot how to get home.

Saw King Creosote in Hartlepool the other night, although for most of the gig he was playing a table with drumsticks!
