eat your parents Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Well, I saw PVH, Uncle John & Whitelock, Sigur Ros and Animal Collective (the latter I can't remember too well), but all were ace. Nothing else really bothered me. Sunday was immense though, got fucked up and ate curry. Six hours of good times had when the ability to balance, talk properly, constuct sentences even and basically be a human being escaped me, as I rolled about on the ground saying "I'm fucked up" and "Call the police".

french_disko Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Not a bad weekend - not the best TITP by a long shot (not the best of bills and the crap weather to thank for that). Still, I've went and bought my ticket for 2007 already. Managed to see.... project vehell, a bit of The Orb and a bit of Placebo, Damien "junior gong" marley, sigur ros, animal collective, jose gonzalez, eels, the strokes, the who. also watched / heard a million other bands while standing have a drink / food before deciding they were crap and wandering off. not the best, as i said but i still enjoyed myself.

Johnny Mac Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 I echo the above.... not the best TITP by a long shot but I managed to see:Placebo, Damien "junior gong" marley, sigur ros, Ben Harper, The Levellers, Fightstar, The Proclaimers, Men, Women and Children, Kasabian, Feeder, the Kooks and a few other random songs here and there.I am also still hungover.... badly.....

black_matter Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Cheers' date=' i would actuallt reccomend anyone to enter T-Break, playing titp is actually worth it, even for all the hassles![/quote']how do you actually get to play in something like that?! i didn't think titp catered for smaller bands. Maybe i'm just being a dumbass ?( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam 45 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 i think adams killing of the drum kit is funny... he always beats the shit out of the thing.You should go see Some Young Pedro' date=' their drummer absolutely kills it.how do you actually get to play in something like that?! i didn't think titp catered for smaller bands. Maybe i'm just being a dumbass ?(They run a competition called 'T-break' where you send your demo off and the best demos (24 or 36 or something) then go play either King Tuts or the Liquid Rooms. The top 12 bands from these gigs are then chosen to play on the T-break stage. Im sure it works like that. Got to be over 18 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_matter Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 oh right i see, thats a pretty cool competition. Well done to you guys for making it through then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skacel Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 i can;t even remeber half the bands i went to see highlights were sigur ros and poject ven hell tho. dissapointed with eels although my beloved monster was good.and corinne bailey rae was decent too although i got a good slagging for that one.also campsite banter was on top form this year, anyone see the david hasselhoff shrine?? in that crew were the guys doing the tricks with fire too and a random setting his arm on fire lol. proceeded by 'oh thats a lot harder than it looks'talking to neds from a scheme in glasgow getting the lo down on how much you can sell E for at 4 in the morning.mate getting kicked off campsite for climbing a fire point sign on the sunday night was pretty harsh then the pigs came along and started bantering with us, taking photos and chilling in a gazebo while some 'break dancing' was going on.met the guy off north tonight and got a pint off him oh yeh!!!!all in all was a really decent year, theres been better line ups but the campsite was pure mintal ken?!

jemmur Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 after the 45 minute delay and initial sound problems, eels were top notch. regina spektor, guillemots and death cab were amazing too. sigur ros were definitely my highlight even though some cunt landed a warm "pint" on me and the surrounding punters while we were in the crowd, waiting. unnecessary....i saw people pissing here, there and everywhere this year - it was disgusting. maybe i just remember more of this year's festival but i even noticed someone taking a dump on the grass in the arena! i managed to find clean portaloos without difficulty, except on monday morning on the the campsite - why other people struggled so much is beyond me.
