List abuse here but it might be of interest to some... Summer Holiday with Belle and Sebastian in Spain Last summer a friend and I went to Spain for a music festival at the seaside. We had a lovely time there in the sun, with three full days of music, and a beach party at the end. Belle and Sebastian played last year, and they?ll be there again this time. There are many other bands and artists playing, as an inspection of the festival?s site shows - http://english.fiberfib.com/, but a few names here ? Radiohead, Primal Scream, Saint Etienne, Sigur Ros, DJ shadow, The Cure, The Chemical Brothers. This year we're going again, but it will be by coach this time (flying to Barcelona and traveling on by train was an awkward journey). We?ll leave Central London on the evening of Wednesday 31st July, and be back sometime on the 7th August. A campsite is included in the festival ticket price, so we'll take tents, and aim to get at least one meal cooked together each day. We?re in touch with the organizers and hoping to negotiate a good place on the site. The lovely town of Benicassim has many restaurants, some suitable for vegetarians, and food and drink is cheaper than in the UK. The cost of the coach ride (during which everyone will have a nice air-conditioned time) and festival ticket together will be less than £250. It?s a very friendly festival. Sure, we queued up for the showers, but there are lots of nice touches, like the free internet access tent, which is being expanded this year. Sun and sea are guaranteed. If you?re interested in being among the 49 people going there at the end of this month, you should get in touch with james.booth@btinternet.com or mick@strobetalbot.com. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
