that's a whole lotta Deerhunter, but yeah I would expect them both to book some good bands.

Jamie, we know why Black Lips and Butthole Surfers are banned from ever doing an ATP - why are Killing Joke on Barry's blacklist?

from what i recall, and it's a little while back, they/their people were really fucking rude, aggressive and (so i hear) threatening towards some of the people working the event. they had something like ten people in their party and wanted a full chalet for every single one, or they wouldn't play. that sort of primadonna bullshit.

seemed like they had stepped out of some 80s stadium tour timewarp and had no idea how to interact with normal people who didn't want to serve their every whim.

Ta, I guessed it was something like that and not like the other two.

I didn't know about the Black Lips and Butthole Surfers bans. That they are general assholes is... unsurprising.
― tubular, mondo, gnabry (Merdeyeux), Tuesday, 18 September 2012 15:44 (eleven years ago) link
it's just weird when people like that suddenly arrive acting like that when we have people like yoko ono and public enemy and nick cave etc who 'get it' and are totally sweet and take it as it comes and treat everyone with respect.

Gibby was just being a dick and had a bit of a scrap with a security guard when he asked him to stop smoking indoors. Although we were talking to someone else near the production office as he checked in and he had just come back from Turkey where he had spent three weeks inside off his tits on various opiates.
The Black Lips were caught stealing from punters' chalets though. That's not on.

they actually broke into the chalet of one of the ATP press people and stole her booze, and then offered it to her later that night at a party not realising. brainy guys.

so, black lips kept in the holding cell before and after their performance? (p.s. nice lineups so far.)

Looks like it's over, again.

The ATP schedule still seems pretty healthy, though. Does this mean there are going to be cancellations? There'll be an awful lot of unhappy people, if so.

Don't know, he might just move the company into a pre-pack again. It's hard to say what the exact state is, because they haven't submitted accounts since June last year for 2013 and according to the Icelandic govt they've lost £200,000 since then on the 2014 Iceland show.
It's could actually be something straightforward, like Deborah has left him and he's transferring the business into another company he solely owns.

Meanwhile, Mr B. Hogan has left the board of ATP Recordings.
The whole Stewart Lee announcement seems off to me.

I'd like to say I will never say a bad word about Barry again now Fyre Festival has happened, but we all know that's not true.
But Fyre is makes his efforts look even more amateur than they are. Ja Rule uses social media influencers to sell the idea of luxury cabins, gourmet cuisine, yoga and... erm... Blink 182 to people with far too much money (anywhere between $2,000 to the frankly amazing $250,000); delivers a concentration camp with processed cheese slices and dry bread, theft and reportedly abductions.
Easiest way to follow the carnage is by searching for the hashtag #fyrefestival

for a moment i thought you meant barry was the guy behind fyre festival too!

If only he had that scale of vision.

Just got a spam email from "Wax Face Toys" advertising Godspeed You! Black Emperor gigs. Their company address/website is Cinema Paradiso Recordings. Apparently I signed up to their mailing list on their website (no, I definitely did not). Clicking the Unsubscribe link takes me to a Mailchimp page called "ATP Email Subscribers". There's no mention of ATP on Cinema Paradiso's website - is this some kind of secret revival of ATP or did they just buy my email off ATP, presumably violating GDPR?

It's Hogan's company, he's probably using an old ATP mailing list he held onto. So yes, a GDPR breach by him.

So I checked my spam folder and hey presto I got one too.
Interesting language in the email, which implies these are the only gybe UK shows when they're not.
