I just bought mr b3th the box set of Game of Thrones
because he saw five minutes of it and liked it. We haven't watched any of it yet.

Is 'Awake' like that episode of Buffy where she thought she was in a mental hospital and her mum was still alive?
As for Alcatraz, I expect to like it because I'm a serious JJ Abrams fangirl (though I've never seen fringe) but after the first episode, I'm not hugely impressed.
I also taped the whole series of Grimm so far, but I haven't watched any of them either.

What kind of roll are we talking? I could go a turkey salad roll...

I ordered my ticket for this year's I'll Be Your Mirror
Which is apparently just down the road from Rory, so we're totally going to meet for beers and I'll probably crash round his gaff and everything.

ATP is a festival curated by bands. Previously held at Pontins in Camber Sands, now held at Butlins in Minehead.
Last year they introduced a non-residential version held at Alexandra Palace curated by Portishead. This year's is curated by Mogwai.

I heart Mogwai.
And the festival started as The Bowlie Weekender, put on by the bedwetter's favourite anorak-clad band, Bellend Sebastian.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:20, Reply)

I missed out on Bowlie
My first ATP was the Shellac curated one, which was just incredible. So many good bands.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:24, Reply)

I love Shellac.

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:25, Reply)

What's not to love?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:27, Reply)

They aren't for everyone.

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:28, Reply)

True, but I meant for you.
I would have expected you to love them.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:32, Reply)

Steve Albini is one of my heroes.

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:32, Reply)

They set the bar pretty high for ATP
I expected them subsequent ones to be the same. It was only later I realised that the 3x free CDs featuring all the bands playing, plus the packed line up, etc. were features that Shellac had introduced for "their" festival.
All the others I've been to have been good, but that one was the best.

I've been to to Minehead, I was the only man not wearing 3/4 length tracksuit bottoms

If you went whilst ATP was on you would be the only man without a beard.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:25, Reply)

who says I don't have a beard?
But seriously, it was the worst place on earth
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:27, Reply)

Then you might blend in.
The usual plebs are not in attendance during the festival, which takes place out of season.
Sleeping in a chalet is preferable to slumming it in a tent: beds, showers, cooking facilities.
Plus there are no corporate sponsors, so you don't have to drink Carling.
The quality of bands playing is usually very high.
This festival is full of win.

I donno, never got into Buffy, even though SMG is fit (although prefer Allison Hannigon).
Awake is about this guy who was in a car crash with his son and wife. He wakes up one day, and his son died in the accident, then the next day when he wakes up, his wife died instead. You're not quite sure if he's mental, he sees a phsyciatrist on both sides who are both trying to convince him that day is the 'real' day and the other day is the 'dream' day... but a lot of the details cross over, and you're like "Is it his subconcious telling him clues in his 'dream' day?".

Alchatraz gets quite a bit better, but I'd say if you ain't into it after eppisode 5, then it's not gonna be worth it for you.
I got Grimm too, but ian't gotten around to watching it.
