I have been thrashing crack the skye and their latest. (One more time around the sun) - something like that...

Cant wait! they let me down at BDO in the past. I dont think they suited the open stage/outdoor area. could be wrong. sound was shit anyway... Keen for a good show!

Oh man, 3 of my favourite metal bands and I had no idea this gig was coming. I've not picked up the latest Mastodon yet, the one before left me a bit cold.

The Oceans are fantastic, and along with Cult Of Luna, have been dominating my Ipod lately

Looks like they'll have time to play all of Pelagial which I am really enjoying, so that's exciting :D

I'll be interested to read what you guys think of the show. Missus and I already have tickets to Counting Crows and the budget can't fly 2 gigs so close together :(

I actually got those signed when Bill's side project Primate played here last year.

Had a bunch of CDs signed by all 4 back when I saw them in 2007 too:
