Ouch! That's a bad headline. Sorry.
DiS is pleased, though, to bring you news of a rather splendid two-day twin-site festival going down in Spain this summer. Summercase is to be held in Barcelona and Madrid on July 13-14, and DiS will be jetting out there to see what it's all about.
Tickets for the over-18s event are currently priced at 85 euros. Bargain! But that price is only fixed 'til April 15, so if the line-up appeals, buy now. You can get advance tickets from the festival website, HERE.
The line-up, then, as of right now...
!!!, Arcade Fire, PJ Harvey (pictured), LCD Soundsystem, Air, The Gossip, Pigeon Detectives, Lily Allen, The Chemical Brothers, DJ Shadow, Electrelane, The Jesus And Mary Chain, Jarvis Cocker, Kaiser Chiefs, My Brightest Diamond, Scissor Sisters, OMD, Soulsavers... plus more TBA
Summercase is just the latest addition to a roster of European festivals that DiS is proud to be associated with this year. We are a media partner of Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Dour Festival in Belgium, and the Hove Festival in Norway. We're also involved in a number of UK-based events, including SuperSonic in Birmingham in July (link), The Great Escape in Brighton in May (link), and The Camden Crawl in April (link).
All of which adds up to us being stupidly busy. Hopefully you'll all stick around for the ride... it's gonna be hella fun.

almost certainly going...
... but can anyone confirm if all the bands will play across both days, like Reading and Leeds, or if some will be doing only Madrid or only Barcelona?
dunno yet...
...will inform asap.
It's a Reading/Leeds deal...
...one line-up plays one city one day, and then swaps with the other.
So on one day Bill A plays Barca, and Bill B Madrid.
The next day Bill B plays Barca, etc...
i am going
all these festivals have seriously damaged my wallet
Thanks Mike
That swings it.
Barcelona here we come...
i would of liked
to go to the Madrid one, but the cheap flights to Girona swung it for me
