Bowl haircut for Bowlie 2! ;-)

It's only 2days before Bowlie 2!!! (ATP festival curreted by Belle & Sebastian at Butlin's holiday camp, in Minehead, Somerset)

I'm so bloody excited and impatient and also stressed!
I never went to this kind of festival before. Cause believe me, this one is not the usual kind of festival we are used to go to! From everything I've seen or read or heard about it... I'm now expecting a special week-end!... a bit of an adventure ;-)

A festival happening in the middle of the winter but luckily, we won't be camping cause it's also happening in a holiday camp... and that's what is making it a bit magic, I think. I might export the concept to France and organise an alternative music festival at a Centre Parc holiday camp or in a Club Med, hahaha...
Imagine all these indie kids in a camp all together, playing a game of Bingo or two, or paticipating to a pushaton competition, in between 2 gigs, hahaha... well, if you can't visualise how it can look like, just have a look at the film trailer (cf end of this post), you'll have a better idea!

Anyway, it just promises to be a fun week-end! Perfect to forget all the christmas craziness!!

So yeah, I just can't wait to be there... I'm way too impatient!!!
9 months that we've bought our tickets, and now here we are, after waiting all this time, finaly... we're gonna invade this old Butlin's holiday camp for 3days of music and fun, wooh!
Don't know if everything would run as normal but I might even go to the huge "waterworld" swimmingpool if it's open, or go to play bowling, or go to the free funfair inside the camp, or just relax in our little challet, drinking wine and watching the atpTV, between 2 gigs :-)
(cf Butlins Minehead website here for more details about the camp!)
(cf All Tomorrow's Parties website here for complete line-up and see if they have a couple of last minute tickets left over if you wonna join the fun, but I think it's sold out)

And now here is a trailer for All Tomorrow's Parties - The movie
(a film made with footage of 10years of ATP + archives from Butlins in the 60's/70's)
