Hmmmm, missed out on festival goodness last year but I really should get along to one this year. Don't know if Glade and Dedbeat will be on, their websites haven't been updated so might go to ATP instead.

If me and my mate go we might be driving from Edinburgh, are you still in central Scotland Seerow?

i'm in the same boat i would love to go to weekend 2 but can't rustle up enough mates

http://www.atpfestival.com/events/line_up.php?event=23

Yeah weekend two would be my preference as well.

Seerow, you're more than welcome to be my friend, I'm well up for this.

When is it and who are playing this thing?  And where?

I's in may, on 2 seperate weekends line up info and stuff can be found here: http://www.atpfestival.com/

You need at least 2 people to go, because of the way it is set up, so 2 of you share a chalet with 2 other people, or you get 4 people+ and you all stay in the same one. It's £125 a ticket.

Student loans and stuff should be in now and will be long gone by then so, if people are definately up for it the sooner we get booked the better, problems always arise when funds run dry nearer the time.

So they just bung you in with two random people? Sounds cool.

I'll ask around with friends, if I can't find anyone I'll definitely pitch in with you, you're a sound chap. ;)

Student loan is within the next week I think - so let me know if you want me to order the tickets, or the other way round.

Trying to understand this all...you can get 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 people together in a party to share a chalet right? Instead of being put in with people you don't know.

Edit - sorted this all out now, seems a bit confusing but I got there. :(

There are some 7 person chalets left, so I'll try and find five others Seerow. See if you can do the same. ;)

Are there no like 4 or 5 person ones left? I'd be really suprised if we managed to find 7 people before they sold out. If Matooine comes back and still says he wants to go that's 3 straight away... There are still a couple of people i can ask but i'm not hopeful.

Hey! Seerows from Scottyland...I think. i.e for potential REALLY LONG BUS FOR CHEAPNESS tripping with.

I had a chat with some swot today (they checked their phone) and we'd exams on the 22nd, 25th and 1st (June).

Dare I risk it? I'd be depressed if I went to anything else were the band ratio was less AMAZING:NOT AMAZING.

Did I mention MC David Cross/Uncle T-Bag?

When do you reckon they'll sell out, very soon?  I reckon we can make 5 or 6.

Yes I am in Glasgow

Can you not find out when your exams are?

What are the chances it's on the friday before that weekend anyway? out of all the days it could be... Pretty low I'd say, and if it turns out they are then you could ebay the ticket? Could probably find one person who wants to go. If it turned out it wasn't on that date could you forgive yourself!?!

I'm cool for either weekend but swaying to the 2nd because it has more bands i know i like, but then I don't object to seeing bands I don't know (quite enjoy it really, much to the puzzlement of a my friends)

I'd love to go as I've never seen Sleater-Kinney live before. But why can't they sell tickets for individual days?

You could just go to see them (I was gutted at the uk tour being dropped) and swap your ticket with someone else for the other days or somthing? if you could work that out with someone. Assuming that sorta thing is allowed.

It's possible, but i don't know if i can get both weekends off work. Had some unexpected outgoings this month which are quite high so money for this sort of thing is slipping away already. I'll definately pay for a ticket for weekend 2 right now and in a month or so I could say if i could go definate for weekend 1

The exams dates probably won't be set until after Easter. The end of Janurary ones were set about three weeks into December or so.

I could get a ticket, but I'd just be looking forward to it way too much and would be gutted if I couldn't physically go.

I've seen Dinosaur Jr. and The Shins before and missed Sleater after the cancelled their recentish tour- but they'll definetly play the UK pre-ATP. Really it's just The New Pornographers, David Cross and the experience motivating me but I'd still far prefer ATP to any other festival.

FUCKING SLEATER FUCKING KINNEY FUCKING CANCELLED GLASGOW

Apparently. I've lost about 9 quid in booking fees on the two cancelled shows.

For now, it seems it's JUST the Glasgow show. I don't know why- the ticket office confirmed it but the guy in the ticket shop was baffled as it was selling steadily both times. The first time he easily sold his allocation out.

Different promoters to the rest of the UK and it's probably not going to effect the rest of the tour, but they've a few days after playing Spain before Oran Mor. If it's true I'm going to lose a left breast sized portion of respect for them.

Sleater Kinney have uncancelled the Glasgow show now. If that's even fucking possible.

I'm a bit annoyed a few of the better known/decent/foreign artists didn't bother playing a few more UK dates when they're over though.

(It turns out I've all my exams in the last week in the end. I'll promise to almost try and probably go a bit more next year, as I'm getting my fees amount added to the student loan. Amazing.)
