[UK] BLOC WEEKEND 14-16 March 2008: Return of the BLOC

 

 

BLOC is big and bold and bad and BACK

 

The first lineup confirmations being leaked: BLOC 08 will be hosting 60+ artists, labels and crews including REPHLEX RECORDS [uK] and UNDERGROUND RESISTANCE [DETROIT]

 

once again,

 

The galaxy's premier underground electronic indoor jivefest breakdown is coiled up like a muscled panther ready to strike at the world's neck and face one more time.

 

 

oh my God,

 

BLOC is scheduled to take place within the palatial confines of Pontin's Holiday Park on the weekend of the 14-16th March 2008. Any attendees / devotees from 2007 's year zero event will know what to expect - three days of the baddest music on earth over three indoor arenas danced into the ground by two and a half thousand of quite the nicest people you could ever hope to meet.

 

on top of the world,

 

BLOC takes place near Great Yarmouth, on the east coast of the UK. It is a unique festival because everyone attending is housed in their own holiday apartment for the three days of music. There's nothing like a few creature comforts to enhance the party. And BLOC now features extrabloc: the music will carry on into Sunday night and everyone attending can stay til Monday at no extra charge too.

 

you knew that we'd be back,

 

BLOC's website is now online, and more lineup announcements will be being made very, very shortly. Do take a second to visit our 2008 website at www.blocweekend.com

So theres this and then Bangface and I probably won't be at either. Big Hairy Bollocks

god damn bangface vs BLOC

 

what to do... my intestines lean towards BLOC right now

Wait till you see the line-up mate.

 

This should be good fun!

Let's hope so seeing you seem to be playing :)

 

Can't decide between this and Bangface... need to convince mates to come to at least one of them

are you a representative of the BLOC gang?

alex(?) or george(?) or someone ?

if so may i commend you on the numerous BLOC parties i have attended in brighton

are there to be more ?

as i was under the impression there wasn't

or the last one (billy nasty??) was the last

or something

 

my intestines are still leaning towards BLOC over bangface

maybe even a little bit more than the last time i posted

 

(the words REPHLEX, UNDERGROUND and RESISTANCE are key to my intestinal decision)

The boys were unable to create a BLOC account due to registration being closed at present.

 

Confirmed line-up is dropping in a few hours. Stay tuned.

20 minutes to 303am

bangface easily... :p

dont suppose anyone has got updates on this. I didnt stay up till that time but im eager and keen to know who is on
