Melvins and Mike Patton to curate Xmas ATP
Melvins and former Faith No More frontman Mike Patton have been announced as joint curators of ATP’s Nightmare Before Christmas Event in December.
As well as our genial hosts, performances from the likes of Isis, Big Business, Zu* and *The Locust look set to make this the rockingest ATP in time.
The event takes place December 5-7 at Butlins Holiday Camp, Minehead; expect more intrigue to follow in the coming weeks on these very news pages.
The line-up so far:
Curated by Melvins
Melvins
Isis
Neil Hamburger
Dlek
Big Business
Curated by Mike Patton
Fantmas perform The Director's Cut
The Locust
Zu
Tickets for the event are available here and here, among others, with early bird prices up for grabs 'til July 1.
'Til then, a video of Neil Hamburger doing what he does best. Weird.

Will definitely go.
Will definitely get a severe bangover.
Will definitely have a brilliant time.
No ATP
is complete without the Locust being there. They've probably being to Butlins more times than Shane Richie has.
hurrrrrah!
see you there?
Damn right!
God, imagine if Slayer got added as well...I'd be a mess. A wonderful mess.
this is making me wet my pants :D
just need to get £600.00 together :O
I'd love to see Slayer at ATP
that would be BREWTALZ
that would actually be the best thing ever
mmmmmmm slayyyyeeer
it would r00l
big time. If I get to hear War Ensemble live I'll die a happy man
This seriously the greatest shit ever.
I NEED TO GOOO!!!
Eh?
They've only played the Mars Volta NBC I think (and not at Butlins).
Not sure whether any of my friends will be into going to this,
but I think I'm going to book a 2-berth anyway.
Where?
I can't see this :(
it would have been much better if patton curated this on his own
but still, it should be awesome. Count me in!
Is Dlek
supposed to be Dalek?
They'd be more interested
if the Squarepusher rumours are founded I bet.
Yes...
...yes, they would.
it's in one of the emails i get
plus it's true
haha!
it's going to be megaRAWK!
Ha!
Do you exist just to be pedantic?
That's brilliant. You're brilliant.
Other way round!
But I suppose he has picked Zu.
.
agreed!
definitely goin!
i think i saw that neil hamburger guy supporting tenacious d; he didn't go down to well but i thought he was better than the headliners, reminds me of andy kauffffman, which could only be a good thing!
