Excellent taste. Hope they do as much from the Teenage Depression album as Life On The Line. Wonder if Barrie's still up to speaker stack jumps and crowd surfing? Possibly not, judging by his photo

Looking forward to great guitar work from Richard Holgarth - I've seen him with Otway a few times.

What did you make of it? I thought Deerhunter/ Bradford did an absolutely amazing job. The Cryptograms & Microcastle shows were fantastic. Elsewhere, the Stereolab/ Derrhunter jam session was brilliant, Black Lips were great fun as always, Tom Tom Club was excellent & Ex Models and Cavern of Anti Matter were my pleasant suprises.
I missed most of Sunday but did manage to catch Pere Ubu (who managed to entirely avoid playing anything off Dub Housing) & the Andrew Hung (F Buttons) DJ set which was superb. I heard the Halcyon Digest show was excellent as well.
ATP crowds tend to be good but I really thought this was a great bunch, everyone was really friendly and up for it. They need to sort out the 2am finishes, though despite (or perhaps because of this) the chalet parties in 205 were ace. We met quite a few people in the pub watching the Lions on Saturday, which was a great way to start the day. The beach is really beautiful as well.
Complaints? The facilities in Camber are shocking compared to Minehead, the bill seemed a few bands light and the DJ line up wasn't great. I didn't enjoy Panda Bear at all (love his records & I enjoy Animal Collective live.)
It all goes a bit quiet for me now, Japandroids in July & Monster Magnet in August looks about it.

They'll probably just appear as a duet playing acoustic music, two GREAT guitar players and some decent lyrics too - Ezio at the Komedia on 04 July

Congos at the Concorde for me tomorrow evening. I can't wait. The downside? Missing PiL @ The Dome. Really awful clash that one.

Just booked tickets for Owen Pallett at the Haunt on 10th August, after first home game of the season! Another great booking for The Haunt, they seem to be able to atrract pretty big artists for the size of the venue. Being an easy hop from London does, I suppose, help!

It's not normally the venue doing the attracting though is it, it's the promoters & I reckon Brighton currently has the most vibrant and creative promoters outside of London in the UK. I don't think it hurts that gigs here tend to be well attended as well.
I remember 10 years ago we got virtually nothing, the prevailing view amongst touring acts seemed to be if people were that bothered they'd go to London. A brilliant change for the better & hats off to the people that have made it happen.
The Congos were amazing at The Concorde last night, Glastonbury is in for a treat.
Did anyone go to PiL?

I was thinking about going to see The Congos but opted to go to PiL instead. It was dire. The venue was half empty , no atmosphere and Lydon didn't seem to engage with the crowd. The other members of the band are not a patch on Jah Wobble and Keith Levine. To be honest, it felt like I was watching a tribute band.

I could not go to this due to work. Would have done but sounds like I saved myself some money. Dome is normally an ok venue but even when sold out it feels one third empty.

Indeed!
Very excited they are playing in Brighton though. Did think perhaps it warranted its own individual thread.
