oooh, did you try and go to the museum?? i saw it from the car and was very tempted...

Kevan looked up the opening times, as we were quite interested! But it's open in May...

I have been to the Bakelite Museum and it was fun!

Found my entry on it: May 23rd, 2004. 2004, gosh, was it that long ago that I went there?

I have also seen many people in Oxford with panda hats.

I like a nice hat with proper ears but all this pom pom nonsense makes me annoyed. Also the idea of a cat/animal hat is to make you look like you have ears, not that you have skinned a cat and put it on your head. (There was a hat they kept selling at Expo which was like this and disturbed me. Nonono.)

are you definitely going to the animal collective one? i know even fewer of the bands on there than bowlie :/

miss_newham December 14 2010, 12:00:55 UTC

I have no definite plans! The Animal Collective one doesn't look very compelling. And yet, can I really let next year go by without going to ATP at all?

shewho December 14 2010, 12:03:37 UTC

yeah, i'm having the same dilemma. and they're only doing the one, anyway. in spring, at least! can i wait until next december??

(i suppose there's always tokyo...)

miss_newham December 14 2010, 12:10:10 UTC

Oh, is there only one next May? HMM. Perhaps I should try another festival. But other festivals are not indoors...

I don't like Animal Collective AT ALL, but I reckon the rest of the line up is pretty good so far (esp. Meat Puppets doing their best album, Lee Scratch Perry, Omar-S, and Vladislav Delay). If Kat's up for it, I think we might well end up going.

miss_newham December 14 2010, 12:40:06 UTC

Oh, I don't know! I am not sure who most of the bands are, but hmm, I do like complicated music gigs... (Then again, the only Animal Collective song I like is the one where they shout "Whoo!".)

Sh1t dude is Omar S playing too? BANG. ING.

Thx Jo for singing with me! I enjoyed it a GREAT DEAL.

Every time I pass Williton I think longingly of that museum - I've never been there. I intend one day to make a special trip.
