Why? So yer pals cannae see bands they actually like?
What's the word I'm looking for here?
And why am I asking so many questions?
No. so I can see all the bands I want to see. I know for a fact I wont be watching The John Lydon Circus so if they stick them on in the tent same time as The Verve suits me down to the ground.
Also might split the corwd, make it easier for me to get down the front.

YA FUCKIN BEAUTY!
I'd go see the Pistols cos they've at least written a few proper classics.
Verve is just music for stowdents though, no?
Ain't they gonna have owt 'dancey' on at this thing - Nickos has made a very good choice with Primavera. Is it too late to swap?

I'm sure they will get something "dancey." There are still forty odd acts to be announced yet.
Dont thin The Verve is music for students though. Hopefully they'll concentrate on the early stuff (Slide Away, Beuatiful Mind, Gravity Grave, Butterfly etc) rather than the Football Hooligan staqdium rock nonsense. Although I know its not going to happen.

Students and Stoners, I am neither these days, but Lucky Man, Drugs Don't Work and Bittersweet Symphony are modern classics in my book.
Dancey?
We are bringing MAD DARREN with us are we not?
:D

"rather twee" would be more appropriate! Mind you I do recall you recommending The Boy Least Likely Too also. 
You should move up here Dave, the twee scene is massive. Loads of earnest young men and women in 60's retro clothes and make-up swinging their pants to Belle & Sebastien and Camera Obscura. They are affectionatelt refered to as the "Belle-Ends" round these parts.
they certainly ain't twee live no idea where that twee thing comes from either
not listened to the boy least likeyl to fer ages...
but you can talk - you recommended fanfarlo!

Ha! It's a fair cop. Fanfarlo do reign supreme in the twee stakes. Damn good though. 
Twee Scene??
Carefull; you'll have JG on the first plane home from Auckland

As I predicted!
Great News! My Favorite's so far are Interpol and the Stranglers.
2manydjs, Edwyn Collins(!) and Mogwai added.
Never seen Mogwai before - always been intrigued to see how they'd pan out live.
Er, and nope this ain't an April Fool's joke - if it was I'd have said Kraftwerk or summat. 
I'm booking on payday. I'm thinking of booking Thursday to Tuesday, get a bit of culture in an' all that.

I'm off from work then so am up for staying there longer too, Jems. I have hotel booked but we can change it and stay for longer if you're really up for it? Lots I didn't get to see the last time.
Anyone's tickets arrived yet - or are we collecting them from the ticket office again?

I would imagine, if last year is anything to go by, that you'll have tp pick them up from the box office. This is, of course, not before the tickets have managed to be lost by the organiser.
Yeah the line up is looking good. Apart from Primal Scream and Sex Pistols. 25 more acts to be announced apparently.

Unless you're a mug/stupid (delete as appropriate) and paid the extra to get the ticket delivered...
Yup, I got mine a couple of months ago! :p
I havent bought a ticket. So doesnt affect me. I do remember people getting rather upset last year though because they couldnt get in.

Now where or who, did you get that idea from, then?:\ohwell:
Don't flatter yourself boy, I have been planning to go to Barcelona for years to see all the Gaudi Architecture, and if I'm right, there should still be a Salvadore Dali Exhibition there.

U want a fucking medal? ;-)
Not content with playing the same festival two years in a row, Kaiser Chiefs are also playing exactly the same slot! I.e. 115 am on the mainstage Saturday in Barcelona. Who books this shit?
Sex Pistols are on before them on the mainstage, which is the same slot Jesus and Mary Chain had last year.
The Verve and Interpol are on the Friday. Hopefully on after each other. Primal Shit are also on Friday. Unless they get detained at customs or something, which would be no bad thing!
