+ Congo Natty, Autechre, Two Lone Swordsmen, Clark, Kool Keith, TTC, Universal Indicator, Surgeon, Rob Hood, Alex Smoke, Rhythm & Sound, Ceephax Acid Crew, Cursor Minor, Bola, etc.

Just to name the people I'm really really fucking keen to see, not just resonably excited.
Plus I can pretend it's Dedbeat all over again and get nostalgic for one of the best weekends of my life.

So yeah, I'll be there.
Assuming it doesn't sell out this week, booking the chalet this weekend!

Don't have anyone to fill a chalet with (Guildford isn't exactly a bustling hub of fans for this kind of music), otherwise I'd be on this for sure.

Agreed, the Last Dedbeat was amazing.

No doubt. As I said, it was one of the best weekends I've ever had. But I reckon this one will be pretty great as well. Hopefully Glade will step their game up after seeing this, and I'll get to go to 2 amazing festivals.

Im gunna maybe step over the line and say I reckon the Bloc wknd is gunna be even better than dedbeat. Altho it was a heavy one, I prefer this kinda line up. More raving innit!
Tom, did we fill the chalet yet? Peter from Germany is quite keen (if he can get somebody to watch his shop for a few days) and think he might stay with us. Ring you tomorow about it.
Shame you cant be at FWD tonight...
Peace bro.

now all i got to do is scrape the cash together before friday! :o

might need more people for our chalet so anyone who's lookin to share let me know!

also - anyone know what security's gonna be like to smuggle stuff in? when i went to global gatherin a couple of years back they had an x-ray machine and sniffer dogs but luckily by the time we got to the entrance they'd given up and gone home. was impossible to pick up inside an all!
