Holy Pukkelpop!
I'm the kind of guy that spends his entire Summer in Belgium -no matter how lousy the weather- just to attend as much festivals as possible. That's because we're spoiled like a brat out here, with affordable, quality dance marathons like Dour, Ten Days Off, and last but most notably, Pukkelpop. I had a look at the list of confirmations of the last mentioned, and if you're a fan of this blog then start cancelling your plans for August 16-17-18th (2007) and book your train/plane/automobile to Hasselt because you DON'T want to MISS this. Heavy hitters from the Ed Banger stable, Dewaele brothers & friends, skin-crawling techno live-sets, quality indie bands,... You just name it, Chokri booked it. Here's the list so far:Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Iggy & The Stooges, Arcade Fire, Basement Jaxx, The Streets, Groove Armada, Turbonegro, Radio Soulwax presents Soulwax Nite Versions (live) + 2 Many DJs, The Hives, Ozark Henry, Tiga, Sophia, Dizzee Rascal, Eagles of Death Metal, Lacuna Coil, CocoRosie, Silverchair, Cassius (live), Low, Laurent Garnier (live), Juliette & The Licks, Badly Drawn Boy, Alex Gopher (live), Mad Caddies, Patrick Wolf, Goose, Erol Alkan (live), The Sounds, Battles, James Holden, Enter Shikari, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Trentemøller (live), Just Jack, Funeral For A Friend, Justice (live), Architecture In Helsinki, Digitalism (live), Jamie T, The Whitest Boy Alive, Cansei de Ser Sexy, Two Gallants, The Black Dahlia Murder, Apse, Black Strobe (live), The Noisettes, Collabs 3000 (live), My Brightest Diamond, Matthew Dear's Big Hands (live), Gogol Bordello, The Rifles, Home Video, Fixkes, Riton, Zombie Nation (live), Albert Hammond Jr, MSTRKRFT, Beatsteaks, I'm From Barcelona, Boys Noize (live), Seasick Steve, El Guapo Stuntteam, Matt and Kim, Apparat (live), Fear Before The March Of Flames, SebastiAn, Tokyo Police Club, Krakow, Shitdisco, The Draft, The Blackbox Revelation, Booka Shade (live), Peter Pan Speedrock, The Pigeon Detectives, Jack Penate DJ Marky, Ignite, The Besnard Lakes, Hellogoodbye, Andy C, Brand New, The End, Mud Flow, Cajuan, Heavy Heavy Low Low, Goldie, Morda, Balkan Beatbox, Uffie & DJ Feadz, Prima Donkey, The Glimmers, Dominik Eulberg, Polytecnic, Agoria vs Oxia, Lo-Fi-Fnk, Bonde Do Role (live), Deetron, Dennis Ferrer and Bedouin Soundclash.
