B&S related thingymajig: Has anyone heard any rumours about Bowlie 3????? Y'see, I missed the first one due to a gross miscalculation, and, although the line-up for Bowlie 2 is pdg, it ain't as good as the first one (due mainly to the absence of the Belles).
It's quite a bummer that Belle and Sebastian are missing from that Bowlie 2 line up. I had been planning a holiday across the pond for that very reason, but alas, they shant be playing. I'm just curious how many folks will change their minds about going to Bowlie just because Stu & co won't be on the ticket. 20%? 50%? 80%? I'm sure the second one will be just as a success as the first, since the first sounded fairly amazing. Such is the way with these sorts of events, until they become big, choke on their own bloated trendiness, and then fall comatose in the corner when the next one rolls around. I'd like to think otherwise, but SXSW, Lollapalooza, etc. all seemed to start in similar ways. Then again, Yoyo A Gogo and some others seem to have held out. Maybe the small numbers of people/chalets will curb a truly mammoth version from ever rearing its ugly head... senor droolcup [ ashamed for missing the first Bowlie ] +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
