I feel like the festival really doesn't cater for them (and 90% of the posters i've seen have cut off the 'Head day) but I am sure the bams will be out in force

I am so fucking glad I don’t live by the Green any more.
10 years ago there a fair few good gigs set up on the Green, and it was nice having them in my front garden, so to speak. Elastica, Asian Dub Foundation, Foo Fighters, Radiohead (twice), Iggy & the Stooges, etc. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere fucking near this urban T in the Park replacement though. Terrifying thought. -
If you make it out, you mean.

Thee Oh Sees in Manchester next month, really looking forward to it despite catching them in Leeds last year, but was a bit under the weather then so didn't enjoy them as much as I should've done. I gotta start watching more of their recent vids though as I first got into them during the Bridget Dawson era with Petey Dammit! on bass and Shoun killing the drums. Since then Dwyer has changed the roster completely (two drummers simultaneously on stage) and I can't help feeling they've lost more than they've gained with all these new line ups, but we'll see.It wasn't until I hit my thirties that I realised you could unlock rewards by exploring the map

It'll pale into insignificance when Eminem plays in August - that'll be the true Bam-Fest. A Roaster-Palooza.Gamertag: gremill -

We had an Eminem & Marilyn Manson double-header on the Green when I lived there. The local press frothed for ages about how it was going to be a neds vs moshers battlezone. It was a nice polite gig with no bother from the crowd at all. No bams in sight. -
I remember doing T in The Park years ago for the Beeb when Eminem was headlining. He insisted on being physically carried to the stage because he didn't want to get mud on his trainers. Still made everyone else in his band/entourage walk tho.

I have more time for Eminem than most. Saw him do a small gig in Islington around the time he did his anti-Bush one, Mosh. No big production, just him and a DJ. Two-hour gig. I think his cartoon persona and constant shock tactics hide the fact that he’s one of the greatest technical rappers we’ve ever had. There’s a serious talent hidden behind how much of a dick he is.
Still. Man of the people, aye … think I was wandering backstage that year at T and saw his three-minibus post-set parade from the stage steps, across the backstage area, to the food tent. A grand total of about 150 yards. If that. Three minibuses. -

Just got out of a Razorlight gig, amazing. JB was awesome. -

I saw Eminem at Hampden over a decade ago and that was navigating the Mount Florida bam run to get in.
Still, cypress hill opened for him -

Wow, weird I was at a show Friday night with Carl from Razorlight playing. Massively eclectic bill, went to watch "Apeman Spaceman", Johnny and Rikki from Dogs, Carl from Razorlight and Ethan on drums, really great bunch of lads. Ended up playing alongside a rockabilly band, a nu-metal band, and a female fronted glamrock outfit, was crazy"I spent years thinking Yorke was legit Downs-ish disabled and could only achieve lucidity through song" - Mr B -
When One Drummer is not enough, thy shall have Two. And when Two is deemed to be insufficient, thy shall bring out a Third.
So speaks the gospel of theTheeOh Sees. Funnily enough, I didn't recognise the return of Mike Shoun late into the proceedings, cos I was far too busy getting into the general thunderous beat of two drummers, let alone three. I just gave a little yelp of joy when I realised the most iconic drummer ever to feature in the Thee Oh Sees lineup had made a, presumably, guest appearance.
They are full into Prog Rock territory now, with Dywer living out his Axe Man dreams. Beguiling stuff though.It wasn't until I hit my thirties that I realised you could unlock rewards by exploring the map -

Those were good times. All three acts at the height of their powers. -

Quality Grem. I saw them in Manchester in March and whilst they were amazing, the sound engineering was truly abysmal which may have been down to the Albert Halls acoustics more than anything else tbf.Live, PSN & WiiU: Yippeekiyey -
On my way to Manchester for drinks before Kraftwerk tonight. Suns out and I'm staying over. Good times.

Well. That was spectacular. I'm possibly the world's biggest 3D hater but that added so much. They might be 4 old German blokes doing a PowerPoint presentation but they blew the roof off.
Very special.

Neato.
Saw The Shins at Prospect Park, Brooklyn. Was a good gig. The band was having fun, I had fun. Good times.
Howdy, Stranger!
