Andrew W.K. for ATP? Perhaps...

no votes
?
by Ben Yates
Artists: Andrew W.K.

Andrew W.K. solo? At ATP vs the Fans? It would never happen, right?

Wrong. The creator of this website (runoutgroove.net) wants the rock-star extraordinaire to perform a set at ATP vs the Fans, held this year from May 18th-20th at Butlins, Minehead. To do this, he's set up a petition to sign here, and has asked that you put forward one of your votes to the ATP organisers.

A good idea, no?

Either way, Andrew W.K. is already playing at the event with Current 93.

The current line-up? It looks like this:

Akron/Family
Alexander Tucker
Apples In Stereo
Band of Horses
Battles
Brightblack Morning Light
Built To Spill
Capricorns
Current 93
Death Vessel
Do Make Say Think
Echo and the Bunnymen
Edan + MC Dagna
Explosions in the Sky
Ghost
Grizzly Bear
Isis
Les Savy Fav
Micah P. Hinson
Modest Mouse
Mogwai
Patti Smith
Shellac
Sparklehorse
The Books
The Notwist
Yo La Tengo
Youth Movie Soundtrack Strategies

'Party Hard' is a tune. True fact. Click HERE for further ATP information.

The Wolf

...is probably one of the best disco-rock albums of all time. It's a shame that all anyone thinks of Andrew W.K. is Party Hard, which, while being great, isn't the be all end all of his output. The guy's a classically trained pianist and a fucking melodic god. Everyone witters on about Dave Grohl playing everything on the first Foo Fighters record - well, so does Andrew W.K.. Underrated because of one single and his look. Lovely guy.


lineup looks great

Is there a atp forum for finding peeps with spare chalet places ?

Isis, capricorns, expolsions, battles, mogwai all on the same bill!!!! aceness
