Summerset 2009 18 April

I want details......NAO!

ahhhhahahahaaha!!!



....same

same, i thought it was 18th of April?

Its the 18th April

I'm pretty sure there's going to be some major details released in the next couple of weeks. Obviously, some serious work being put into procuring a quality lineup.

I just want it to be April 18th already.



Can a mod please change the title of this thread, thanks

April this time?

autumset...

No, that would be the end of May

There were some meeeean days in April last year + there's tents + dress warm + lotsa boogeying = satisphatction.


Blame the indian cricket team

Yes, but it is Wellington so autum comes early for us

but yes will be THE shit no matter wat!!

...here's hoping the line up's good then

Topic Fail

First year was choice, second year was even better!
Let's hope the trend continues!

Fucking gutted it's in April not March as we're back for a while in March, can't come back again in April too!

Why not? only $310 rtn on Pacific Blue. Something to spend your poker winnings on

haha pacific blue got for it! be worth it mwahaha summerset be good in Jan...look outside!!

Lol plug for DJ! Make friends with her^^^she'll give you good seats
You should prolly be outside you're obviously not at work.

Yay! I'm quite excited already, and I have already convinced Tragic to fly down from Auckland for ensuing chaos.

i lol'd so much i almost had an oargarrysm

I heard a roumor and this could be totaly wrong but il put it out there, that a certian Big Black Gay DJ form Chi town was being booked???????

nah he's just cruising around the country after rhythm & vines, will be gone by then

Coxy is form London mate! try again.

Tell me what to do! haha...who said i wasn't i work? mowhahaha. Keen for summerset??!! post the lineup a.s.a.p

he is in nz in a few weeks so i highly doubt he will be here again in april. i did hear rumor he may be heading slightly further south than akl on this tour, but no conformation has come from varying sources.

it would kisk arse though!

any word yet???

Think they're gonna slam us with everything mid Feb.

Yay! Air New Zealand has $55 flights from Auckland this weekend so Tragic is all booked to come down.

Nevermind, my first fail at booking flights... *face palm*

Nice! Hopefully I get to meet the legend that is tragic.



Will be putting accom+tix+transfers packages up for this shortly, so twaggie, tell all your jafa mates.



And i've seen pics of some 'things' that are going to be onsite for Summerset 09. OMFG!

Yeeeeeeeeeeah biggie meet up fo real!

I might even get to say hello to pstu... don't think I've seen you since I've been down here.

It's quite scary posting in flipside.

/pats head.

I normally see the tumbleweed rolling across my screen when I'm in flipside.

Come to Pappa!

God that came out wrong....

/exits

What's in it for me?

Cripes, how Summer 2001!

Plenty, if you show up on Sat...

JTC: Summer of 09 = Summer of 01 revisited...

I may require more convincing and/or bribery...

I'm open to both.

Phat beats, good mixing. I'll be there.

That's more than enough.

I'll see...

Right I'll stop hijacking this thread now.

Oh good, I've been waiting for a revival!!!!

Summer of 01? Revival??

I was only widdle then.

Hmmmmmm...Easter is Friday 10th April...we have Satoshi Tomiie and Nick Warren playing here that weekend...Summerset is the weekend after...possibility, but not really Sandwiches styles, eh?

It's fun starting rumours though!

Nick Warren would be a big drawcard for the 25+ crowd though, and they've got the $$$. Didn't you do a warm-up set for him when he was in Welli last Insanity?

And Satoshi is a legend for Tears alone.

Closing set actually...first ever closing for an international DJ and it had turned into my birthday as of midnight...deft not forgetting that in a hurry! Was so fucking nervous I completely screwed the first mix though!

Haha

And that was an Auckland promoter bringing him down, not something Sandwiches organised themselves...but yeah, he'd still be a possibility.

PS - Satoshi's Renaissance Masters Series 11 CD is wicked...very deep, very melodic, very listenable...no 'OMG sick!' stand out tracks, but as a whole album, very solid mix. One you'll be able to listen to for years without tiring of I reckon!

stolen from another website!

Here's the full lineup:

Joining Fat Freddy’s Drop (NZ) on the SummerSet team are famed house DJ Nick Warren (UK), hip hop innovators and cricket aficionados The Nextmen (UK) with special guest MC P Digsss (NZ), drum and bass’s latest luminaries DJ Lynx and MC Kemo (UK), soul diva Hollie Smith with full band (NZ), electro house party DJ & remix king Bass Kleph (Aus), four piece popsters Charlie Ash (NZ) and audio genies Pitch Black (NZ).

"House DJ"???

Guess progressive still a dirty word, eh? hehe

Good guess on my part though...Nick plays a killer festival set!

SANDWICHES ANNOUNCE SUMMERSET 2009

Sandwiches is pleased to announce a stellar line up led by big hitter Fat Freddy’s Drop for Sandwiches Summerset 09 Day-Nighter at Wellington’s iconic Basin Reserve. For the third year running the hallowed cricket ground will resonate to a solid 12-hour innings where music is the new sport - mixing bona fide legends, established acts and newcomers from here and abroad - across two stages on Saturday 18th April.

Joining Fat Freddy’s Drop (NZ) on the SummerSet team are famed house DJ Nick Warren (UK), hip hop innovators and cricket aficionados The Nextmen (UK) with special guest MC P Digsss (NZ), drum n bass’s latest luminaries DJ Lynx and MC Kemo (UK), soul diva Hollie Smith with full band (NZ), electro house party DJ & remix king Bass Kleph (Aus), four piece popsters Charlie Ash (NZ) and audio genies Pitch Black (NZ).

Picking the headline act for the 2009 event Sandwiches selectors said they made a beeline for Freddy’s who’re on the cusp of releasing a new album Big BW - winning the band over with the offer of the Capital’s premiere outdoor music festival to shake that ‘shiverman loose’. Bryce Mason of SummerSet said, “Here and across the world the question on people’s lips is ’Fat Freddy’s Drop – is the album out yet?’ We’re extremely pleased to have Freddy’s performing in what is such an important and exciting time for them. It’s the perfect setting at the iconic Basin Reserve for the boys to bring their magic sound and success home and answer that question.” Rounding off the musical entertainment, a host of local DJ’s and emerging bands such as soulful blues band Whiskey & Sly will join the SummerSet team looking to hit the festival for six over the white cricket fence.

SummerSet is once again bringing a super top to the Basin but in 2009 it’ll be the massive ‘Heineken Super Top’ – the largest structure of its kind in New Zealand - ensuring the music plays rain or shine. It’s a truly global event in a positively Wellington setting - follow Kent Terrace Road to the Basin Reserve for Sandwiches SummerSet 09.

"Without a shadow of a doubt one of the best festivals in the Southern Hemisphere." Norman Jay, DJ at Sandwiches SummerSet 2008

“The Basin Reserve was the perfect venue for such an event, offering space and greenery for the masses to wander around in. There was the two pronged attack of the main stage at the Basins north end, and the swish looking Super-top to the south for people to get their musical hit from.” Darren, Texture Live Blog 2008

Yes it has been quite sometime! will try and look out 4 ya on the day to have a brew

How many stages are they having this year?

2

start some more rumors...

Maybe Darren Emerson - playing Sydney on the 11th of April...

Last year I think there were some summerset tickets for students (discounted) and it was advertised on the Orientation flyers. This year it is again but there seem to be no student prices? Does anyone know if that's coming soon?! I rang Ticket-thingie but they didn't know of any. Cheers!

Don''t think so Vicks. You'll notice though that tickets are $25-odd cheaper than last year anyway. BARGAIN! All I can say is get in there now before they sell out.

Sooooo excited!!!!

ah that vid brings back the memories

BRING IT ON!

Its gonna be one hell of a rawkus day!!!!

So looking forward to seeing Charlie Ash play again after their wicked as set at BeerFest.

Thinking I may turn up for this... it would be a great welcome home gig after being in London... sadly we fly in at stupid Oclock on the 18th

Anyone got Set times??

I am still undecided!

Nick Warren, Nextmen, Pitch Black . . . i'm sold!

Fuck yeah...$75 is CHEAP for the overall lineup!

Ummm, wat?

I was counting on this being the location/day you repay those drinks

Got my ticket today... Am getting so excited about seeing Nick Warren

Well that's my mind made up... I'm there! (that and I want to see Lynx :> )

I went to buy you a drink on Saturday, but I didn't think you would be able to hold the wall and a drink at the same time

LOL! Good night it was...




Got your message too, sweet as

You = the best.



You are going to be a melted puddle of pstu by the end of the night

Nick warren, 2.5hrs

And the daytime looks mint too

and the eve for that matter... PERFECT structure methinks. Woot!

Can't wait for Nick Warren & BJ Lynx!!! Bring it on.. The tent will be pumping!!

Its the outdoor stage

Oh so it is..DOH! That a little odd having the bands in the supertop...

less than 2 weeks - Yuss!!!!!!!

Please don't sell out before next Wednesday!
I don't want a repeat of Homegrown.

We're in the same boat

Yeah can't wait either... Then on down to Garden Club for Crank.. What a massive Saturday.

ohhh jokes! same day... hmm? how much?

I think it was $15 now it's $10....or it was $20 and now it's $15?

Either way i should go, i've got Monday off and there'll be a bit of trance from Ben

Check out the link for all Crank info
http://www.biggie.co.nz/interaction/forum/viewtopic.php?t=215678

$20 isn't bad!! Is it worth it staying in town for it though? haha

The last crank was massive so can't see this being any different. Oh My Gosh April the 18th is Super Saturday!!

are both stages/areas covered?

Nah i think it's just the one, metro zone is uncovered. can't wait!!!

Had the traditional Fat Freddys vs Black Seeds pre Summerset 20/20 match down at the basin today. Fat Freddys batted first and put together a well-compiled 99 runs from their allotted 20 overs, losing 8 wickets in the process.

On a drying flat wicket, that wasn't too bad a score.

The Black Seeds came out all guns blazing led by Barnaby Weir putting on 20 runs without loss and the game was destined to be all over by 3pm. However, there was a wicket and then a tight run out call that had to be referred to the 3rd umpire. Classic stuff - there happened to be a TV3 cameraman filming the game from square leg and we went to him for the referral. Out - just - and FFD were back in the game.

Sensing an opportunity, FFD bought out Rich, their secret weapon who in his first over took 4 wickets, including a hat-trick, putting the FFD boys well in charge and TBS were teetering at 39/6 and 100 runs to win looking a long way off.

Then two of TBS boys put on a stunning lower order partnership and accompanied by some wayward bowling, all of a sudden only 12 runs were required for TBS to pull off an unlikely victory. A couple of wickets fell and it came down to 4 runs needed to in the match for TBS and FFD requiring only one wicket.

Dallas of FFD bought himself onto bowl (he can, he's the frontman) and bowled an excellent delivery, just short of a length; the batsman got a leading edge back to Dallas who caught the ball then bobbled it before finally claiming the catch putting TBC all out for an agonisingly-close 96 runs, handing the match to FFD by 3 runs.

Mu was gracious as winning captain, holding up the mini ashes trophy as though it was his proudest moment. Who could blame him? If both teams put on that kind of performance this weekend, we're in for one hell of a treat.


there should be some coverage on nightline (tv3 tonight and TVNZ should have something over the next couple of days so keep your eyes peeled, and we'll see you Saturday!

Hay how come The Black Seeds are not playing at Summerset???

I HAVE TICKET!

I'll be there

Oh really!!

Yeah I leave the next arvo, so don't see why not (except for my crippling debt, but I prefer not to think about that )
