What Band This Year

[Vette_1978]

Not that I follow mellow French melodic folk/sca/reggae music or anything, but I'm sure Alpha Blondy was on last year. I think last year we wandered down to the hilarious go-karts, watched a fight and then wandered back over Dunlop for a pint. Can't be doing with the crowds at the concert.

Hollysiz also played last year, and she wasn't half bad either,, I think they are last years line up.
Not unless they are playing again this year

Sunday is Noa Moon + Alpha Blondy



...according to the ACO map on the 1st Tickets email.

Normally goes up on the ACO website. Nothing on there yet so suspect will be eurorubbish

Ah, I didn't see any of the concerts last year so just assumed that map was the current one. Obviously not, apologies for the confusion folks.

Think those were last years bands (if you can call them bands)

Deffo last years. I enjoyed Earth, Wind & Fire a few years ago and will be looking for whomever is here for this year. It's not to detract from the race but just another thing on the list to check off (provided it's not some crummy Eurocr*p).

[JT3K]

Looking back at the last few years, last year someone called it on Pistonheads LM forum on April 11th and the ACO had it on the official website on the 23rd April. They're late this year.

Well I think I've found the first band for the Saturday night, Heymoonshaker have an entry for the 24hr on the Saturday on the website bandsintown.com

[Geoff66]

The musical "entertainment" on Wednesday would appear to be the mighty "Jabberwocky" !!

Not being a regular listener to Heymoonshaker, I thought I'd have a quick look on YouTube, glad I did....So now I've heard them once, I don't need to do it again....ever !!

Jabberwocky sound decent, just had a listen on YouTube, reminds me a little of Florence and the Machine.

Yep, they don't sound too bad at all, so may well have a stroll to the Dunlop Bridge for a listen/beer/chichi's !

Here you go, the official announcement

whhhoooooooooo...... prefer the DJ's usually to the bands but will have a listen in when I'm passing

Actually based on Jabberwocky tags they sound ok
:rock ceremony drone kick ass kraut psychedelic rock sex shoegaze stoner tits Paris

Wednesday bands sound good actually (and appear to sing in English)

Thursday bands sound very French, local bands for local people maybe?

Saturday night my pick would be Dixon Brothers who I think are KISS FM DJ's so should do a decent set

Charlie Winston voiced the infamous VW Polo ad cover of "I'm a man." The one with the singing dog that got banned.
