not A church

THE church!

greenlight · 09.29.2017, 12:43 AM

are we going to rent a bicycle to get around easily and get full local experience :-), or are the venues within walking distance?

Moshe · 09.29.2017, 02:37 AM

most of the venues are within a walking distance.

_tunic_ · 10.04.2017, 12:01 PM

time schedule is now here
and just as I thought: it's overlap galore which is the main reason I don't go to these festivals. Take the first day:
Sun Kil Moon playing at the same time as Keiji Haino and also Oiseaux Tempete and also Jerusalem In My Heart

Prurient with GAS, same story with venues.

Sun Kil Moon vs Jerusalem in my Heart would be a tough choice

Yes, best to stay at home and see nothing at all than be faced with the anxiety of a tough decision.

HAHA! yeah I know it sounds stupid, but there's more to it, like acts play only a short set at these festivals. And also my ears are no longer able to cope with a night or even a full day of loud music unfortunately

So what I do is try to see them while they are not playing this festival. For instance I'm heavily considering to see Jerusalem & Oiseaux Tempete when they play in Brussels a couple days later

Toilet & Bowels · 10.07.2017, 11:53 AM

I can understand that. Festivals can be costly and that money is often better spent on gig tickets.

whorefrost · 10.07.2017, 03:24 PM

Fucking strong line-up. It looks as if I'll probably be going to this.

_slavo_ · 05.25.2018, 04:12 AM

I don't know almost any of these.
I was 80$ sure that I'd go this year, but now I'm not so sure anymore.

_tunic_ · 05.25.2018, 01:44 PM

see the last line

But indeed the line-up so far appears to be less impressive than last year.

FACS is 3/4 of Disappears (minus the bass player), and their new album is pretty good. Wouldn't mind at all seeing them live. But for the rest I don't really care so much, besides Breeders and Lydia Lunch.

According to https://www.allmusic.com/album/negat...s-mw0003149342, they're now 2/4 of Disappears. So I guess they added another guy to keep it a trio or summat.

_slavo_ · 06.04.2018, 10:20 AM

hey,
can anyone recommend some good festivals at autumn/late summer time, situated in Europe, besides Le Guess Who and Sonic City?
me (+my wife) and greenlight would wanna go somewhere, tho I'm not so sure about LGW this year...

_tunic_ · 06.04.2018, 10:42 AM

there's a festival in my hometown on 24/25 August: http://www.effenaar.nl/agenda/9089/f...oven-2018-2/en

At the end of June there's this festival: https://downtherabbithole.nl/
Also in June: https://www.pinkpop.nl/2018/nl/programma/
there's also Lowlands in August, but they say on their site that it's already sold out

And in Hasselt, Belgium in August: https://www.pukkelpop.be/nl/line-up/abc/
also in Belgium, but in July: https://www.rockwerchter.be/nl/line-up

if you want it doom and autumn, there's Desertfest in Antwerpen: http://www.desertfest.be/line-up

there used to be also the Incubate festival in Tilburg, which I would have highly recommended. Unfortunately it has been cancelled because they had a major budget cut problems. That's too bad, didn't know about it until now when I googled about the lineup for this year ...
