Pitchfork

Hey folks! LOTS to share today, so pull up a chair!

From 24, down to 18: that's how many names you'd have to pry out of us to learn the full lineup for the previously reported ATP vs. Pitchfork festival, going down the weekend of May 9-11, 2008 at the original All Tomorrow's Parties venue, Camber Sands Holiday Park, near Rye in Sussex, England. Behold, six all new reasons (in bold) to contact a travel agent, pronto:

Chosen by Pitchfork:

Hot Chip
Les Savy Fav
No Age
Of Montreal
Man Man
Los Campesinos!
Caribou
Glass Candy
Dirty Projectors

Chosen by ATP:

Meat Puppets
The Black Angels
Shit and Shine
Sebadoh
Ween
Pissed Jeans
Fuck Buttons
Apse

My oh my! And, with a dozen and a half bands left to be revealed, the likelihood of you seeing a better show anywhere else in the world on this particular weekend is fast approaching nil.

As mentioned previously, the ticket price of £140 includes accommodations at Camber Sands' chalets, which feature private bathroom suites, bars, a swimming pool, restaurants, a supermarket, go-karting, and mini-golf! Tickets for the weekend can be purchased through ATP's website in blocks of four, five, six, seven, or eight.

If you're tied up during our little throwdown-- or if you come by and plan on sticking around a while-- you could always try to make it the following weekend, when the second All Tomorrow's Parties-hosted Weekend of 2008 sets off May 16-18 at Butlins Holiday Resort in Minehead, England.

This one's curated by Explosions in the Sky, and along with a set from the epic Texas instrumental troupe, Dinosaur Jr., ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead, Iron and Wine, Broken Social Scene, and Adem will take the stage at Explosions' behest.

Around 50 acts will perform at the second weekend, so expect updates to follow. Tickets for the event-- £140 for "Room Only" accommodation and £150 for "Self Catering", and available in groups of 2-7 depending on your lodging selection-- are on sale presently.
