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

Do you have also problems with their site? In my computer there is no information about groups, just frames, and no posibility to join the mail list.

I'm hoping to hook up with Melissia and travel there. That's my plan, anyhow.

I need to sort out a passport soon though!

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)?

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?

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

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 ....

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

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.

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

I just hope all the bands originally pencilled in for April, can play September.

Sleepytime Gorilla Museum will not be there, for the singer is having her baby aound that timle.

A replacement band will be added
