New edition of All Tomorrow's Parties is heading our way. Have never made it there, but think about going every year. Currator for this year is Mr. Brown Bunny himself: Vincent Gallo. (via warp records:) ATP chose the always-controversial raconteur as a curator because of his vast record collection and extensive music knowledge. Says festival director Barry Hogan, "His musical taste is evident in places on 'When', which to me is a very underrated album. I knew Gallo would be able to deliver a lineup that would reflect his record collection and take ATP to new directions that will keep the festival as fresh as ever." many of the acts have been confirmed and are listed below, with many more to come.
