[UK] BLOC WEEKEND 14-16 March 2008: Return of the BLOC

BLOC is big and bold and bad and BACK

The first lineup confirmations being leaked: BLOC 08 will be
hosting 60+ artists, labels and crews including REPHLEX
RECORDS [UK] and UNDERGROUND RESISTANCE [DETROIT]

once again,

The galaxy's premier underground electronic indoor jivefest
breakdown is coiled up like a muscled panther ready to
strike at the world's neck and face one more time.


oh my God,

BLOC is scheduled to take place within the palatial confines
of Pontin's Holiday Park on the weekend of the 14-16th March
2008. Any attendees / devotees from 2007 's year zero event
will know what to expect - three days of the baddest music
on earth over three indoor arenas danced into the ground by
two and a half thousand of quite the nicest people you could
ever hope to meet.

on top of the world,

BLOC takes place near Great Yarmouth, on the east coast of
the UK. It is a unique festival because everyone attending
is housed in their own holiday apartment for the three days
of music. There's nothing like a few creature comforts to
enhance the party. And BLOC now features extrabloc: the
music will carry on into Sunday night and everyone attending
can stay til Monday at no extra charge too.

you knew that we'd be back,

BLOC's website is now online, and more lineup announcements
will be being made very, very shortly. Do take a second to
visit our 2008 website at [url]www.blocweekend.com[/url]

STAND BY FOR MORE BLOC NEWS

here's to 2008.

Heads up - last few tickets available at
www.blocweekend.com

respect to bloc and all that
but Karl Bartos wasn't much more than a session musician for
ralf and florian, by all accounts was more into it for the
groupies than the music
the rest of the lineup makes it well worth while enough tho
so you are off the hook
my friends got me a ticket so see you there
