The Big Chill 2006

[usernick]

I would love to go to TBC one year and there's more than a couple of incentives this year, Lou Rhodes being a pretty big one as well as Hexstatic who I haven't seen for ages and of course Phil & Dog when do tix normally sell out by?

Good question, as there's no Glastonbury this year, so tickets may well sell out faster than last year (around May)?

Which reminds me, I *must* get my tickets shortly!

Nathan Fake

surely he's a hoax?

[Dog]

Wahay, the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain again!!! worth the ticket price alone! I think I'll avoid those JCB bastards though

Jane, nothing is confirmed about us being there at all. Far from it!

[discocyst]

might try and go this year..

You guys are making me poop myself - partly with excitement and partly with worry at not having a ticket yet. I'm going to get right on it!

Regarding Nizlopi - I know that the JCB song is annoying, but the rest of that album is really very good. It's just shame they took the most cringeworthy, cheesey track off it for their first single. Don't hate them!

[Dog]

I'm hoping Nizlopi will clash with something... Probably a trip to 'Shaken Udder' actually

I'm not too sure how many tickets have been sold but seriously folks if you wanna go, get 'em sooner rather than later.

You'll ask who, Ulrich? Tell him I'll stroke his lovely hair if he plays there.

More information than was strictly necessary, but yes if I get a chance I will. Mind you, I would be more interested if he was playing the Electric Picnic,

Of course, he's announced a gig in Dublin - I'm envious!

Well, you have to consider the amount of times I have wanted to throw the computer out the window when I see some of the gigs ye all get to see in Blighty

It sucks don't it

.....the Big Chill usually sells out about 2-3 weeks before the event. Though the point that Glastonbury isn't on is a fair one.

It's a blinding festival, so best just to get stuck in with a ticket I'd say.

Barrington Darkos.

'T in the Park' sold out in an hour...

[Barrydark]

ooooooh!

and Nightmares on Wax and Fink have just been added to the line-up!

I'm going to throw out one of my great predictions for someone to play the Big Chill again.....


Long Range!

The LP release might coincide with the festival, and, judging by the Brighton festival gig, their ambitions for visuals and artistry woul fit right in to the eclectic and experimental Chill ambience...

Now, that would be good!

Ticket bought today (which is nearly a week after I said I would buy them)!

Still, the deed is done - Sid, you going to book yours now?
