mrph | There's always next year

Nope, I'm not doing C9. My self-imposed deadline for a decision was early January - although when they said they'd have all the bands confirmed by end of Jan, I extended it a little.

Well, it's February, and while I still don't know who the bands are going to be, I've not got the money and I'm definitely not going.

If they now announce a line up I really want to see, I'll mope - but it's not something I can attend without dropping out of Whitby, InFest or the Leipzig WGT. All of which I've already committed to.

And yes, I'll miss seeing a lot of people. *sigh* But I will be there next year. Definitely. Wherever it is, whoever's playing.

Update: No sooner do I say this, than... still, out of the two bands announced, I don't know Reverb TV at all, and I've not been that struck on the tiny bit o' Babylonian Tiles I've heard on compilations. So, no, not moping yet. Well, not over-and-above the basic "wah, not gonna make C9" mopage...
