http://i36.tinypic.com/14v7e6g.jpg

ok i should be in? lots of money left

yeah it says you're in. Now you need to do a screenshot for those too lazy to click some links

then dan will swap it for a lame one

http://i37.tinypic.com/30uvo1i.jpg

Kinda, sorta. Would definitely be in Portugal. I'd need two festivals at least though because I'm missing Jamie lidell, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Magazine, Gang of Four, Siouxsie, Charles Mingus, Amalia Rodrigues, Can, etc.

I'm in tho LOLindie

Now with added picture

I can't see your pic Bill E

i am looking forward to creating the least popular festival ever

Heh, I was tempted to see if I could find 15 acts with no buzz whatsoever, and see if I could remain buzz-free until the end of the festival period. But I guess finding a collection of forgotten 90s bands, unknown local bands, and my friends' dubious home recording projects would not be such a challenge really (though I totally would go and see them all live, and am sad to leave some probable no-buzz bands off my festival, not that I'm short of other candidates).

Still sitting on my hands waiting to think of a name I won't hate half an hour later.

mine isn't color coded by day (I assumed it was a 1-day extravaganza) I just wanted it to look kinda pretty and it's sorta by genre.

I don't even know why I care enough about this to clarify that

I'm in tho LOLindie

sorely tempted to call my festival LOLindie tbh

I didn't realise you could change the colours. But oh! I now want Silver Apples instead of NEU!

bah some of the pictures aren't showing. I'm only about half-done, but I'm too lazy getting this thing to work now... maybe later.

is it done yet?

http://fantasyfestival.last.fm/preview/festivals/7699/gothic_anus

did some rearranging and organizing, plus ditched Skinny Puppy and ICP because they didn't fit my other choices ;_;

also lol nepotism

ha ha, I gotta check how many ILX0rs' bands are on iTunes and see if we can make a fake ILXfest.

iTunes? WTF? I meant last.fm - way to go with yr branding identity there

32 fests now in the ilxor league http://fantasyfestival.last.fm/preview/leagues/1434/1/ilxor

http://i33.tinypic.com/35kvf3q.jpg

Anyone tried listening to their festival's last.fm radio station? This is mine (no idea if link will work):

http://www.last.fm/listen/artists/1233239,581,831,202,5810,28,1003673,1003727,1008485,478,189,1,10845448,11335619#pane=webRadioPlayer&station=%252Flisten%252Fartists%252F1%252C28%252C189%252C202%252C478%252C581%252C831%252C5810%252C1003673%252C1003727%252C1008485%252C1233239%252C10845448%252C11335619

I haven't, no.

ok, i've just ditched 13 of 15 and started over. too many similar lineups (talking heads, smiths, joy division, lindstrom) so i thought i'd make my fest more tailored to the festival title and my username so, here ya go, the new and improved lineup. i've got nearly 900K left to spend so everyone at the festival gets an ounce of weed and all the baked goods you can eat free of charge.

WA

(would attend)

WSYOAWCJAFD

(will save your ounce at will call, just ask for dave)

I'm there, but can I have lots of ice cold orange juice instead of weed?

BYOJ

lol you're now 32/32 in the league

awesome, only want the true heads in attendance anyway.

That's why i kept Barrington Levy and Gregory Isaacs off the lineup.

Horace Andy the only possible Indie bait.

My festival was meant to be a lolgoth thing - I didn't realise we were listing what we'd actually want to see if we were creating an actual festival. I'm gonna think about this, and add some NOISE and probably some post-rock (or I could just c&p a random UK ATP line up).

you mean you wouldnt go to your gothfest if it existed?

Oh I would definitely go, particularly if I got to choose what era of the band appeared (so e.g. Tony James doesn't get within a mile of a Sisters line up). What I'm saying is if I was to choose 15 acts for my ideal festival, rather than 15 old gothish bands I like, it wouldn't be those fifteen.

I see the fantasy festival more as a lineup that you could never actually get to see (with whatever era band you want). Your ideal lineup. Not your ideal lineup for a festival next year with only current bands or bands reforming who dont have lots of dead members.
When i picked led zep to headline i mean 70s zep and a young eddie hazel playing with funkadelic.

of course if you want to win the whole thing/prize you choose popular hype acts (and muse/coldplay etc)

of course if you do it as a 3 day fest you can theme it for each day like i did.

you could of course have 1 day dedicated to goth.

not in it to win it

http://img2.pict.com/ed/fe/6b/1971516/0/ff.jpg

you cant win without muse

onimo your gothfest lineup was pretty perfect tbh

would attend kate's festival

woah I didn't know about this. Doing it at work would feel like a sin of much greater magnitude than simple reading and posting, but I am all over this when I get home.

anyone wanna post the link again? i wanna get all obsessive and colour code mine per day/stage like everyone else.

roz's festival is awesome. i miss aaliyah so much :(

Sam you lazy bastard

who in the ilx group has the festival you would be least likely to go to (question open to you all)
