NO FUCKING WAY PURE GRAFT ARE ON THIS!?!?! (they had got better last I saw thogh, but still...christ)

Awesome to see Calvinball and The Magnificent getting on this shit though.

Will properly digest the line-up toorrow. I'd really love to do this once (finding people to go with will be a cunt)...this year doesn't look likely, but fuck the line-up is gorgeous.

...MASSIVE!

I actually looked at flights this morning....£525 is the cheapest before looking at accomo/spending...yeah, not happening this year (and probably not next ).

You should definitely go see Into It. Over It. I think you'd really enjoy him. I think he's unreal. Prefer his acoustic style tracks to his emo-rock numbers, but it's all good.

As of now, found some punx who're willing to put up with me on a thirteen hour car ride.

Of course, since I still live at home I have to somehow explain why I'll be gone for five days or so...

Oh and stop being a coward! Money is unimportant! Mind you, I may only think that way because

I still live at home.

Do it... how often can you go to America much less for a festival?

I've only heard of High on Fire and Valiant Thorr out of that entire list. High on Fire when I saw them in April was good. Not familiar with VT, but I hear they're decent.

[Skummy]

Wow, Owls! might be my new favourite band name.
