End of the Road 2009 (!)

[Corporal Clegg]

Green Man does indeed look awesome, as it always does. To be fair though - it does have twice the capacity of EOTR, so I always expect it to have slightly more "big" names than our beloved little Dorset shindig.

[Elfy]

Eeeeek....... Fri looks v busy and potential for lots of clashes!!

[RealEarthMother]

I knew it - Blitzen Trapper have self-confirmed on their web site for Saturday night. I'm guessing they'll be on befroe Fleet Foxes. Might get them jamming a bit together too. That would be great. Can't wait.

Really chuffed about Babel - we'd been keeping our fingers crossed that they'd be there

[SweepingTheNation]

Looks like Loney Dear'll be there - he's playing London on 10th September.

OK, using ljsawyer's myspace list, these are my please-don't-let-them-clash bands so far (I've added Babel onto Fri as that's when they've put themselves down...... but I'm not sure if Fri might just mean any day, ie put the first day of the fezzie down as a generic "we're going to be there" thing).

Can anyone tell me if any of the bands I've missed off are ones I really really need to check out and go and see?

[Elfy]

PS Of course there's also others *not* on that list, eg The Acorn, Bob Log III, Dan Sartain, Malcolm Middleton etc etc

....and Shearwater, if they really are turning up

[shoebox]

If this is true then I am VERY happy...Loney, Dear has been on my "to see" list since Loney Noir...brilliant add

[DragKnuckles]

Looks pretty true to me

[DragKnuckles]

Any idea why our lovely little topic is now seen as a "moved (lovely little) topic"???

[DragKnuckles]

I'm an idiot.

It is a day to CELEBRATE.

EOTR has it's own thread! Deserved recognition eh!

[shoebox]

So, apparently, The Horrors are now playing as well as Brakes. Interesting....

[shoebox]

Here we go:

The Horrors have been confirmed as playing the Big Top Stage on the Saturday. Also added to this year's line-up are Blitzen Trapper, Brakes, The Duke & The King (with Simon Felice from The Felice Brothers), Shearwater, Vetiver, Wye Oak, and Loney Dear.

Is it just me or are others having trouble accessing the new website? I'm so excited now especially about the latest additions but all links to the 'new' site seem to take me back to the old one, except that now a number of the site selections are blank when you open them...Line Up, News etc. Is it because I'm on a Mac...can't believe that. Is there a problem with the new site? Anyone know anything?

The old site is probably cached on your Mac. I had to do a "hard refresh" (CTRL F5) to show the new site. Not sure if this is an option on a Mac though.
