Rolling last.fm thread 2009 no haters!

Ha! I actually felt kinda bad about the Killers! But they are my #15 most listened to artist of the last 6 months. Day & Age sounds pretty great a year later. And if Taylor Swift isn't a prototypical ILX pop-favorite then I don't know who is.

Of my top 15 artists from the last 6 months, i only left off Rainer Maria and Elvis Presley. Broken up and dead! I replaced them with Animal Collective and Madonna, which... I guess the Madonna inclusion is a little much. But I just bought Ray of Light last night, its fresh on my mind!

we're over 20 members now. But some posters here haven't joined yet, so please do! http://fantasyfestival.last.fm/preview/leagues/1434/1/ilxor

btw, Keith Hudson is so much more than just 'dub producer'. Ian Curtis was a fan of his work so having Hudson on just before Joy Division makes sense. King Tubby and Martin Hannett get to work the controls all day long.

I was just teasing brontosaur, its not like you were obviously padding your festival. I still need to put mine together, but there's a chance The Killers might end up on mine too. Funnily enough, I was just giving Day & Age a spin yesterday and it was sounding better than I expected it too.

btw, has anyone else had their account suddenly stop scrobbling in the last half hour?

no

hmmm

try restarting your client

That's what I did and it seemed to do the trick.

slight alteration to my festival to include friends who happen to be a+ djs.

I'm @ work so can't really do this right now but, being a hermit, this game reminds me of how there's very few bands/musicians I'd go out of my way to actually go see live.

Here we go Lex

btw is it a 1 day fest with 15 acts? or 3 days with 5 acts each day noted by different colour?

like look at this guys, it actually looks as if it's colour coded.
http://i33.tinypic.com/2nsb807.jpg

i suppose it could be 3 stages

Curtis' is colour coded too it seems
http://i36.tinypic.com/8yx120.jpg

damn, im gonna have to redo mine with proper colours now if its by days. Argh.

lex I'm not being a bitch this is a serious question. what happens at a paris hilton concert

has there ever been one?

i think for her last album, she took the kate bush route and eschewed live performances, apart from at her bday party when, i believe, she demanded an impromptu performance but fell over and threw up before she reached the stage <3

lol

colour coded by days (left to right) with some line up changes (ditched klf, sun ra and moroder for britney, kate and pete & c.l.)

the britney love is right

wont it be 5 acts per day if its 3 days? You've just made me go and start to colour code mine you. Damn you!

oh i see what youve done. That looks great!

mine had 5 different colours...

Yeah I guess you could have 5 acts per day, making three of each colour from the bottom row. But I like the 2 stages I got going on for day 2.

xpost: three of 2 colours and two of 1 colour from the bottom row.

mine's done, colour coded by day and it's in switzerland!

ok i rejigged mine. Was gonna have a whole krautrock day but couldn't bring myself to kick out joy division. Broke my heart leaving out the god machine :(

Still no doubt they will reappear at some point

http://i38.tinypic.com/2akjk0n.jpg

okay would attend that yellow day

yeah, i would do. that's awesome. i seriously thought of just doing an entirely jazz greats line up. but the disco and funk show stopped me.

pfunk... have you got two festivals going on?

yeah 2 accounts

both festivals are awesome btw

I'd definitely pay for Pfunkboy In The Park and get a day ticket for the last day of the other one for the 70s german extravanganza

I couldnt bring myself to leave out Joy Division other wise Tangerine Dream would have been in there.

Okay I'm in it to not win it.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/birdnestsoup/shitcotheque.jpg

i would go to that - lots of great stuff! nice to see Lisa Lisa in the line up

Yeah, I wonder how old she would be now.

no colour code ;)

I did my colours map style.

btw muse appear to be the act most booked for the fantasy festivals.

The whole thing's a fucking shambles really tbh.

talking of shambles, babysamuels, he's doing his as a 1 day fest, but no babyshambles :O
http://i37.tinypic.com/24qsqqa.jpg
