My Bloody Valentine To Play Stateside, Curate Best North American Festival Of 2008

mybloodyvalentine460.jpgNot only is My Bloody Valentine playing the just-announced All Tomorrow’s Parties festival in Monticello, N.Y., this fall, they’re curating the damn thing, and among the bands they’ve hand-picked to play include Built To Spill (performing Perfect From Now On), Polvo, the Meat Puppets (playing Meat Puppets II), and Low. And there’s more to come! Tickets are limited to 3,000 and go on sale Friday, a.k.a. the first day of Coachella, which should make the festival-junkie action on Craigslist very interesting over the coming months.

    Get off my lawn!

    Indeed, as I stood in line at the record store today, Replacements reissues clutched in my liver-spotted hand, I realized that I am old. No, not just old, nostalgiac.

    This is some kind of prank to promote a Cloverfield sequel or something. I just know it.

    @Nicolars: Snarf. As it stands, nothing about this is of honest interest to me. Years ago would have been a different story.
