I literally laughed out loud at this, brilliant Chris. That, my friends, is DEDICATION!!


I'm happy to see Combat Astronomy getting a spot with this prestigious lineup. They definitely deserve it.

I have GOT to attend this. I've no idea how right now (no money and I'm not even sure where I'll be living in September) but these are minor considerations... I've simply GOT to see this one!

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Yolk announces the same date, too. I guess these three bands just typed "september" instead of "april".

The new tentative dates would be in Sept 2009
 
 
UZ and Magma announces the 17, 18 & 18th, but it's not likely since the 17th is a thursday.

Hugues,
seen the bad weather we had two years ago in april a nice warm september good be good news ... especially for those who want to do the S.I.O (Surf In Opposition)  programm, serious this place is more fun with sunny weather....Magma plays the Beach Boys  ....Big%20smile
 
 
it's in fact a Téléski : you are drawn by a wire across the artificial lake on the bottom 

 
 
but far more cool is the téléféerique which goes down to the bottom which we tested the last time

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

one nice thing about Carmeaux, apart from the music : if you plan to stay on the festival site, a multi-sport& culture complexe you will stay in the same place as most of the musicians, (a sport hotel, which is quite cheap BTW) have breakfast with them and a chat, get autographs, do the groupie etc..... the first festival two years ago was great !!!

a pic of the site, it's a former open air mine and the big excavation in the middle is now an artificial lake where you can surf,...so bring your Magma and your Hawai T-Shirt
 
BTW  How do you say "Good Vibrations" in Kobaïan?Big%20smile

I definitely have to make a choice:heavy psychedelic stoner,space rock and metal among pothhead pixies
(Roadburn Festival 2009) or intricate musicianship,avant prog patterns and zeuhl wortz with RIO freaks
(Carmaux 2009)?
