^ Do you like avant, J? Never saw you mentioning it (but that might be my attention's fault).

I'd love to see Art Bears Songbook (love Art Bears), and Miriodor is a treat,  I didn't know Full Blast.  I never got into Sleepytime Gorilla Museum (one of the few bands in RIO/Avant, and a very popular one, that I actually disliked.   Haven't explored the music that much because I didn't like what I heard).

I'm fairly new to it, but love it more and more all the time. I think my new love for Jazz-Rock has something to do with that. I haven't reviewed anything in the genre yet, but I should. I've got every HC album, the second Mr. Bungle release and a few Zappa ones, as well.

I had made plans to go to the 2007 festival, but couldn't due to my wife's pregnancy and birth of our son.  Maybe next year.

Miriodor...
They're from Québec and I never had the chance to see them, they're one of my favourite from here (particularly Jongleries élastiques and Avanti!), there must be a problem Disapprove
Zaboitzeff...
If only I lived in Europe. Damn.

So, Alex, we will probably meet at some (if not all) of these performances...Smile 
I am not a die-hard fan of RIO/avant-garde music, but I do enjoy some of its representaitves, some Samla, the yes-inspired Thinking Plague, Ahleuchatistas, OOIOO, The Cardiacs (not really avant-garde, more psychedelic punk), Zu (more jazz-rock than avant-garde), Frank Zappa (mainly 'absolutely free', I don't really care for the other albums), This Heat, Hardscore, Captain Beefheart (only the first album), Six cylindres en V, Mr Bungle, 3sacchetti, Uz Jsme Doma.

Hey, you can meet the guys from Miriodor, René Lussier, GYBE or the whole Tech-Death scene or Voïvod everyday in the streets, and you are still unhappy to live in Quebec???!!!
Come on, let your European cousins have their own privileges! Angry

So I see there are new confirmations. Nice!

So I see that new bands were announced. GONG and THREE FRIENDS at a RIO festival? Well, I don't think they're avant, but nonetheless, this makes me a lot more interested in this edition. Also, there are

- JANNICK TOP  / INFERNAL MACHINA (France)
- CASPAR BRÖTZMANN MASSAKER (Germany)
-AQUASERGE (France)

Yes, we had a small conversation about Three Friends on the forum of Traverses. I'm also a bit surprised and puzzled by the presence of Aquaserge, whose musicians had been the background musicians for Bertrand Burgalat on many concerts.

FULL BLAST! Black Hole was one of my favorites from last year, even if it wasn't exactly a radical musical departure for Peter Brotzmann, but woah, are they really playing with another saxophonist? I thought the whole point of Full Blast was to explore the possibilities in the limits of a trio. Does this mean we can get them listed here as well as Last Exit? What about Caspar Brotzmann? He's much more rock than his father.

It now looks as though Three Friends have been taken off the program. What a shame!
 
How many people are planning to go to this festival?
