DiScuss: That line-up is RIDICULOUS, no?
Jeremy Enigk!
SOLO! I WANT TO GO TO THIS MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW!
Reverend Horton Heat!
Smoking Popes!
What Made Milwaukee Famous!
The M's!
Seriously, NOTHING has the right to make me this jealous. NOTHING.
I didn't realise Reverend Horton Heat was still going!
Nor did I
but now I do, I'm SEETHING with I WANT TO GO TO THIS vibes. Gah.
FUCK that's good. No British festival will ever have a line-up as good as that :(
Nice work
14th April may well see me at the Mean Fiddler now. Cheers!
Still doesn't bring Jeremy Enigk any closer though :(
yeah..
i'm still holding out hope, but i don't think it's going to happen. unless they're holding back.
i still really want to go, however!
truth.
i wish i had a granny
then i could ebay her and get a ticket and, like, go.
no pumpkins...
thank christ...
yes
I think I'd have died of jealousy if they had played
I'd rather they didn't
reform y'know, they'd be so out of touch with a line-up like this methinks
I've got two!
Want to borrow one? Then we can go, and wear t-shirts. WE SOLD OUR GRANNIES TO WATCH LADY SOVEREIGN. CH-CHING!
Or something. I just checked prices of flights out. I am so lame. I really wanna go.
maybe
but would still be better than mor giants red hot chilli peppers, we need them to start fucking around with drugs again and making decent music not like by the way, what a shit record
yeah, thanks
i'll get her back to you...um... whenever her buyer feels like selling her back to you at a rate of 27.5% interest.
awesome.
i wish
i was rich as hell so i could be able to make my way here, that line-up and this festival looks awesome!
Jeremy has said he's
doing a solo European tour in May.
Amazing line up!!
Wow!
Wilco
I'm in heaven.
Or rather hell, since I can't go.
Are you referring to Mr Enigk?
If so, I am currently masturbating and will do so until you burst my hapy little bubble of...erm...happiness. Or something.
Wow.
