maybe they will confirm manchester at a later date? i mean the first year it was only in london, then london and manchester, so maybe it will be at even more venues and they just havent added manchester yet, this does happen sometimes so dont loose all hope until we get a definate NO!

no, iu checked there myspace. apparently they couldnt book the MEN, and they tried to book the GMEX (near the Granada Studios?) but they couldnt get either. And also the NIA has a lot more standing room than the MEN has.

[size=81][color=LightCoral][font=6] From the official GIAN myspace...

The Rumour Mill..............


Ok First up there are a bunch of kids claiming this band is playing and my mate spoke to a mate of a sister of a guy who walks the dog of the mother of the guy who works at a label this band like and all that type of shite.....which is boring and seems to cause more stress and anger than anything else so to put things straight.....

These are the only bands 100% confirmed and happy to announce:

NEW FOUND GLORY, SAY ANYTHING, KEVIN DEVINE, FROM FIRST TO LAST....

All other acts are pure speculation...................bands self confirming doesn't mean shit unless you hear it here!!

We've decided to bring the announcement forward one week so the full line up should now be announced via Kerrang magazine (go on have a whine you know it makes you feel better) on 10th January 2007!

Tickets how much??

Weekend 3 day pass no more than £80.00 and day tickets £32.50 this is super cheap for 12 acts a day yo.

Hotels: we are currently getting together a full list of the cheapest safest hotels in and around these venues and taking into account travel we'll have train/bus and even flights info into the cities by the time we announce.

PARIS?? WTF??? Well some of our continental friends don't get to many of these acts playing together so a much smaller billing of like 6-7 bands will be playing around Europe before they hit the UK for the main event!!

Hope this sets some things straight.

Johnny


and FAQ...

ANSWERS BEFORE QUESTIONS


SO..........

1: THIS IS THE OFFICIAL GIVE IT A NAME MYSPACE

2: YES WE BOOK GIVE IT A NAME

3: YOUR BAND WILL HAVE THE CHANCE TO OPEN THE EVENT BUT DO NOT SPAM US UNTIL WE DECIDE ON A FAIR WAY YOU CAN ALL COMPETE

4: YES IT IS BIRMINGHAM THIS YEAR AND FOR A FEW REASON BUT MAINLY BECAUSE THE N.I.A. HAS MORE STANDING AND THEREFORE LESS RESTRICTIONS FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE A WANDER, AND NOT HAVE A RESTRICTED VIEW FROM A STATIC SEAT (STANDING IS STILL LIMITED BUT ITS MORE THAN DOUBLE WHAT M.E.N STANDING WAS)

5: I DO NOT CARE IF YOU THINK THE LINE UP SUCKS

6: NO QUEEN WILL NOT BE PLAYING (PUNKTASTIC PFFT)

7: WE WILL KEEP YOU UP TO DATE ON ALL THE BANDS PLAYING AND TIMES AND SHIT CLOSER TO THE EVENT

8: THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT ITS FUCKING AWESOME!!

9: WE WILL ANNOUNCE THE LINE UP IN FULL ON 15th JANUARY 2007

10: IF YOU WANT TO SHOW SOME LOVE MAKE US NUMBER 1 IN YOUR TOP 8!!

11: BELIEVE THE HYPE

12: EMMA EDGAR READS THIS STUFF

13: YES THERE WILL BE A GIAN INTRODUCES TOUR TO PROCEED THE ACTUAL EVENT

14: NEW FOUND GLORY ARE NOT TO BE BELIEVED!! OR ARE THEY?

15: WE HAVE TO DO THIS WEEKEND NOT OUT OF CHOICE BUT DUE TO A FACTORS BEYOND OUR CONTROL THESE INCLUDE

a: EARLS COURT TUBE STATION IS CLOSED THE BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND, THIS MEANT EARLS COURT COULD NOT LET US USE THE VENUE ON THAT WEEKEND

b: BAMBOOZLE IS THE WEEKEND AFTER GIAN SO WE'D LOSE ALOT OF ACTS

c: THIS WEEKEND WAS IN FACT THE ONLY WEEKEND A FEW ACTS HAD FREE TO BE ABLE TO COME OVER AND PLAY

16: WHY BIRMINGHAM AND NOT MANCHESTER?? FACTORS INCLUDE

a: MANCHESTER M.E.N NOT AVAILABLE AS SOME INDIE BAND HAS THAT WEEKEND HELD AND WOULD NOT RELEASE (THIS IS THE MAIN REASON)

b: BIRMINGHAM IS STILL PRETTY CENTRAL AND BY TRAIN IS VERY EASY TO GET TO FROM: LIVERPOOL, MANCHESTER, SOUTH WALES, NEWCASTLE, SHEFFIELD, LEEDS etc etc

c: THE STANDING CAPACITY AT BIRMINGHAM N.I.A IS MORE THAN DOUBLE WHAT THE M.E.N. IS

d: COULDN'T GET THE G-MEX IN MANCHESTER THIS YEAR EITHER.

17: FRIDAY IS A SCHOOL DAY!!! YES I KNOW BUT DOORS AND TIMES ON THE FRIDAY WILL RUN SLIGHTLY LATER AND SATURDAY AND SUNDAY WILL RUN SLIGHTLY EARLIER

18: 3 DAYS THATS GONNA COST?? THIS IS DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF ACTS WHO ACTUALLY WANT TO BE ON THE EVENT! PLUS THERE ARE SOME SMALLER EUROPEAN FESTIVALS POPPING UP AROUND THIS PERIOD ALSO MEANING MORE AND MORE ACTS ARE WILLING TO COME OVER!

19: KIDS WILL ALWAYS MOAN!
