I was truly, truly gutted not to be at this event, having been to three All Tomorrow’s Parties (ATP) festivals in the last few years. This one was perhaps the best line up I’ve seen. For you doubters, or for those of you that haven’t heard of ATP take a look at what happened when Nick Cave came on stage this year.
I heard great things about loads of my favourite acts like Nina Nastasia, Joanna Newsom, the Magnolia Electric Company, Spacemen 3/Spiritualised, Low… I was sad to hear that Cat Power’s set wasn’t up to much though.
Now that we know that the queuing problems have been resolved, the Sandyford Three will certainly be there for the Nightmare Before Christmas with Portisheed, as they say in my part of the world.
