"Big news: Bloc has outgrown the Butlin’s resort in Minehead, and after our euphoric fifth birthday celebration in March this year, is moving venues for 2012. Take a read."
anyone thinking of going? they say it won't be necessary with tents etc. for the new venue either, anyone got an idea where it might be located now?
if the line-up is good, there's probably a few of us norwegians who would head over there. they're also saying it'll be later in the year, so it might be easier to coordinate it with summer vacations.

One of the things that got me interested in BLOC was it was in Minehead so I thought I could go there and spend a couple of days enjoying the Somerset environment and good music. I couldn't go last year, may go next one, I hope they don't switch.

i will not be going to BLOC 2012, as they've already confirmed that it's going to take place in summer.
i don't cope well with summer in this country when i'm sitting in a ventilated room by myself, let alone thousands upon thousands of people in poorly air-conditioned rooms.
nope.avi

definitely not, the whole point of BLOC was that it was indoors.

honestly the primavera festival probably covers the most bases for me, but it's probably too expensive :\

both the sonar and primavera sound are not tent camping thing nor acomodation, and i think both are similar priced festivals. sonar has two venue sites, one for day things, in the center of the city at macba, a contemporanian museum, and one for the night concerts, a big industrial/comercial place with lots of huge scenarios

sonar is more electronic music oriented, and primavera is more all kind of independent good music with a little space for some electronic acts (aphex+pusher+the bug last year). dunno why the fuck im talking all that shit, i just feel it would be useful for you two expressing your doubts. i hope it will

primavera always books a fuckload of rock bands etc. that i am very interested in hearing, i'm not too keen on an all electronic thing unless it's got a lineup like last year's bloc. sorry, i like rock!!!!
