yeah i just saw about this this morning
Looks amazing, how did you find out whos playing what days?
The main website just shows the bands playing, I cant get it to do anything else at all...
Help!
also
are my bloody valentine, peaches and grizzly bear the three main headliners?
or is it likely the main headliners for saturday and sunday are still to be announced?
grizzly bear and peaches dont seem anywhere near as big as my bloody valentine
probably wishful thinking...
still seriously looking into this
this site

Unofficial site but they seem to know what they are talking about. I'm not sure who the headliners are. All the bands seem to get decent length sets though.
This festival
looks brilliant. The Friday line-up in particular looks great. Very tempted, gonna have get a few mates on baord.

You going then?
I know im being stupid but..
Is the only difference between the 3 day pass and the collection pass the fact that you can get into the afternoon shows with the latter? whats the deal with camping at this event?
I think
that you also get into the afternoon shows with the collection pass and in previous years they have also given a t-shirt and a cd compilation to the collecion pass holders. Camping and parking are free I think.
If you can't be arsed with camping then the Britanny tourist website has an option to reserve 3 nights in a youth hostel or a hotel along with a ticket.

Ha gotta love babelfish
or was it google translator? I love the translation of Fort Saint Pere...
I haven't been before. I'm too old for all the camping nonsense so have booked a cheap-ish hotel (sadly nothing is that cheap on that weekend) near the port and the station for the shuttle buses. I'm getting the ferry over cos it was cheaper than the Ryanair flight to Dinard.
did you get the hotel with the ticket option?
or did you book them as 2 seperate things? who you looking forward to seeing?
No I booked the hotel separately
before I found out about the hotel + ticket option. I figured that I would get a better price on a hotel if I booked early.
I'm looking forward to seeing Deerhunter, Dominique A, MBV, Crystal Stilts, Bill Callahan, Grizzly Bear, Tortoise, Paper Cuts & Peaches.
How can i get a ticket for this?
I'm planning on taking the ferry and i'll be camping.

Thanks very much!
I've searched high and low without even a hint of a ticket!
If i get the standard 3-day pass will that allow entry into all three venues?
get the pass collection
for entry into all the venues. It's the one that's around 94 Euros.
I'm not so bothered about the initial beach offering
But i do need to see Mark Kozelek & Marissa Nadler. They are on the late afternoon stage. Can i do this on the standard three-day ticket?
you need the pass collection to get into the palais
The 3-day ticket that is 73 euros or whatever will only get you into the fort and not the palais. You can buy a one day ticket for the palais though, although if you are doing that you may as well just buy the pass collection.
Thanks Jack
Looks like i'll be taking the expensive option then.

hey guys,
wegottickets are selling tickets for La Route Du Rock here: http://www.wegottickets.com/f/965

in other european festival news, did anyone make it to slotsfjell festival last week in norway? i have to say it was super sweet!
JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG
thanks mate.
i understand people (you) might see it like that. but to others, perhaps interested in festival, that information might be some use to them!
I really really really want to go to this.
Anyone fancy a carshare down from Manchester? So far only 1 of my mates can afford it :(
timetable up,
deerhunter, tortoise then mbv on the friday, woooooooooo. saturday night looks good top to bottom.
:)
Genuinely excited about this
2 weeks to go
I'm dead excited. Deerhunter and Dominique A at the same festival! Why can't other festivals have such a good wheat to chaff ratio?
