Jaikoz- Discussion Forum

Been a bit quiet over the weekend as I went to to the awesome End of the Road Festival this year for the first time.

I guess music wise it specializes in Acoustic, Shoegaze,Alt-Country, Folk, Post-Rock, Singer Songwriters, if any of that appeals I highly recomend it.

I've posted some (blurry) photos on flickr

Wow that sounds like a blast! A little bit of a drive and swim or I would be all over that action. How was it? Quite a few names in that list that I do not recognize. Any artists or bands that really stood out for you that you would recommend?

Of the larger bands Beirut, The Walkmen and Midlake all did great sets. But I hadn't heard of the majority bands myself but I really enjoyed these two

The Mountaineering Club

Big Deal

Wow, seems to be quite the line-up. I would have seen several of these bands at this years Pukkelpop festival myself but sadly enough the weather had quite a different idea. Some really bad things happened there

Anyway, will have to check out the band you mentioned.

Cool, I may have to check those 2 out.
