2nd December 2008
FANS STRIKE BACK VOTE: THE FIRST TOP TWENTY! Okay gang here we go, the first top ten for Fans Strike Back! We will be posting a new updated chart each week with the latest top 20. Each week we will approach the top 2 bands and ask them to play the festival. If they can't do it for some reason, we approach the next two. Keep checking back here for news on how it's going. FANS STRIKE BACK WEEK ONE CHART: 1 Sufjan Stevens 2 My Bloody Valentine 3 Beirut 4 Kraftwerk 5 The Knife 6 Eels 7 MF Doom 8 Jesus and Mary Chain 9 The Magnetic Fields 10 Flight of the Conchords 11 The Flaming Lips 12 Dan Deacon 13 Death Cab For Cutie 14 M83 15 MGMT 16 Electric Wizard 17 Jeffrey Lewis 18 Jesu 19 Robert Wyatt 20 Wolf Parade Remember if you haven't got a ticket yet you're missing out on getting involved and effecting future charts. Tickets to the event are on sale NOW from this link. That's better than I'd expected to be honest. There are even 3 or 4 on that list I'd be interested in seeing. (In the first round of voting you were only allowed to vote for bands that haven't played ATP before) It seems a bit pointless to vote for MF Doom though; from what I've read he can't leave the USA because he probably wouldn't get back in. Let's just hope Sufjan Stevens and Beirut have already made other commitments for fuck sake. |

Agreed, but I'd not have expected to see a band like Kraftwerk that high. I'd actually quite like to see Kraftwerk.
I did expect My Bloody Valentine to top the list though - come on, motherfucking Sufjan-fucking-Stevens!!?? - and since their reunion tour didn't stop by anywhere near me I'd still be interested in seeing them, even if it's only to be able to say afterwards that they were total shite, etc. This ATP is all about the reunions anyway with Sleep, The Jesus Lizard and Devo already playing. If MBV and Kraftwerk get added then I'm going! BUT they should really rename it to "ATP Goes Retro" or "ATP Classics Vol. 1". Fans Strike Back my arse... actually that would be a good name too. |

I expect it's the problem that for everyone voting for Les Rallizes Denudes, there's ten people who would genuinely like to see Flight of the Conchords. I'd probably enjoy them if I saw them, but I'd be incensed if they were picked over someone who's very likely to play, like Melt Banana, let alone something unprecedented, like Rallizes (or somesuch).

I'm not familiar with Flight of the Conchords, but Les Rallizes Denudes would fit in well with the overall reunion/old band theme.

The Spring ATPs seem to be an indie paradise to me, full of fairly mainstream / currently hip indie bands. Nightmare Before Christmas is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more adventurous.

I'm gonna think of things that are actually feasible:
The Hospitals Sick LLama Afrirampo Alvarius B Rick Bishop Anthony Braxton Smegma don't look back smell the remains Blue Oyster Cult don't look back "Tyrrany and Mutation" The Skaters The Dead C don't look back "Harsh 70s Reality" Tusco Terror Eat Skull Underground Resistance Dylan Nyoukis/Blood Stereo Detroit Techno Memorial DJ Tent Raekwon and Ghostface don't look back Only built for Cuban Linx Temple of Bon Matin Darkthrone don't look back Transylvanian Hunger Lightning Bolt Black Pus/Rat Bastard (im waiting for the day when this happens, they used to do crazy ass noise jams together when the squelchers and the bolt were on tour together way back in the day) Arthur Doyle Electro Accoustic Ensemble To Live and Shave in LA Pink Reason Warmer Milks Blues Control Cro Mags don't look back Age of Quarrel (for maybe a second of the awesomeness they once had) Kevin Drumm Cock ESP Emil Beailieau Can't Gang Wizard Rusted Shut Sonic Youth (duh) Ricardo Villalobos Gravediggaz don't look back Six feet deep Burnt Hills OM 6 Organs of Admittance Mesntruation Sisters Emeralds Kito Mizukumi Rouber Mammal Riko Sic Alps Wolf Eyes Daniel Menche S I X E S Skullflower Hotogotitsu Pengo Valley of Ashes Thee Oh Sees any Billy Childish band No Doctors Excepter playing that freaky new album only any dub artist i like that is alive and not fallen into lee perry syndrome (trouble is i couldnt think of any) Prince Far I (he works) Eddy Current Suppresion Ring (everyone seems blown away at how they rock on a purely rock n roll emotional level not seen since rock n roll died for the first time, prolly after the 70s, when ac/dc and motorhead couldnt even rock so wierd bands and punk bands were left to do all the rocking) well im stoned right now any gettinc arried away |
