Any of you festival jet setters planning on going to the Echo Project in Atlanta (http://www.the-echoproject.com/) in a few weeks?
Not fully confirmed yet is God Is An Astronaut who will be making their US debut. They are still waiting for their visas to be approved. You know how they wait until the last second to approve those things. Should go through since they have a top booking agency up in NYC working on it and they are good guys. It's just bugging me that I can't make it down to see them. Either way, they are working on coming back maybe in '08 for a tour. They've already been asked to play a few festivals here but I haven't bothered them about the details yet since I'd still just have to wait for them to come my way anyway. I really can't wait to see them!

Nice addition.
What started as an overly jambandy lineup had ended up with a good bit of variety.

Here's most of the God Is An Astronaut set. (http://www.mediafire.com/?dmtdq1cxgmx)

notes: from 14.51 min to 17.52 min I had to make the track mono b/c of a drop out on the right channel. basically i just copied the left channel over the
right channel in that spot. this is only noticeable with headphones.
setlist is unknown"

I went to Echo on Sunday and have to say I was pretty pleased. Besides it being dry and dusty, the set up was easy, never really any lines for the bathrooms or food, and the prices were reasonable. Have to say they did a pretty good job with it.

Azaghal, thanks so much for the boot!!! God should be touring the States maybe in March. (Oh, Seth...) Can't wait to see them. I've heard nothing but very, very good things about their live shows. You can hear they put on a good show but what you can't tell is that it's also very visual. Thanks again. ;)
(If I stop being so lazy, I'll post the set list.)
