Loopallu 2010

[Mcscotty]

your absolutely right, i got my bellas mixed up with my loops and my facebooks confused with this forum, kassidy had not previous been officially announced Final announcment next friday, i am anxious that it may be the manics (previously had thought they would be preferred for a bella spot)as I am pretty sure that its nutini

[thedementedpoppet]

Great, not going mad after all Manics would have been great at Bella, imagine in place of Amy McD!

I'm sceptical it will be anyone 'big' at all, various rumours the last couple years have come to nothing. Certainly hope you'll be saying "told you so" next week though

[Mcscotty]

my confidence is based on mr hicks on several occassions saying that the announcement is one that will make the tickets shift quickly.

[thedementedpoppet]

Wonder how many tiks are sold, any idea?

[Mcscotty]

not sure, if you could get a reliable assessment at this stage, if it were really poor, no promoter would dare admit it, I suspect that it will sell out by a week on monday or tuesday.

[tweemo freak]

Just a few days to the announcement .

Paolo Nutini

you heard it here first and on www.invernessGiGs.co.uk, a week and a good bit ago

Looks like camping tickets are sold out already, I can't get one from any of the online stores and Mania in Inverness have none left. Ironworks not answering their phone so I can't check with them, but it would seem unlikely.

Question for previous Loopallu-ers, or any locals that might read this, is there much provision for wild camping in/around Ullapool? We've camped before but it's always been in Broomfield.

Devilman on the money! I er TOLD YOU SO!!!

Check back for more headliner news months before anyone else knows.

Sold Out.

I'd love to know the % of tickets that were sold before Paolo was announced.

[herindoors]

I am a tw@t. This is what I get for being a music tart and waiting to hear the full line up before committing myself. Gutted

It also means I no longer have a valid reason to excuse myself from a back-room-of-a-pub 40th birthday party that weekend. Massive FAIL.

[theampersanddevil]

Massive SAVE!!!!That bed I made a few weeks ago looks well comfy now!

I would recommend people go and see James Mackenzie and aquascene. Saw them play a pub at rockness thursday in Inverness and they were great.

I hope everyone has a great time, which I am sure they will and if you like Paulo, I have heard from my friend that he is great live (then again she named her car after him).

[tweemo freak]

Ok so, its Paulo. Don't thin i'll be seeing him. But there's still plenty of good acts on (I like James Mackenzie and The Aqauscene 2,amoersanddevil btw) and the atmostphere is always amazing. So i'm ddging Paulo, but roll on the 17th!

[theampersanddevil]

yes that includes Paolo (so shoot me) he's lovely

[Dave_Aber]

Any idea what time it all starts on the Friday?

I'm travelling up on the afternoon, most likely be there around 4 or 5.

[Paul ™]

Usually about 4pm on the Friday and 12pm on the Saturday

[Dave_Aber]

Cool. I won't miss much then.

Don't suppose there's any chance of Paolo Nutini playing first on the Friday, whilst I'm driving up is there?

[Mcscotty]

You've said it all there, haven't you.
