Wow, All Tomorrow's Parties is absolutely killing it this week. While a lot of our British readers were bummed (or happy) about the postponement of ATP Curated By Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel) in Minehead from December to March of next year, the promoters have today not only confirmed that a good number of the original acts will be soldiering on with the new March days, but that some exciting new acts have jumped onto the bill as well.
The new additions include The Magnetic Fields - making their ATP debut and a rare festival appearance - as well as '90s indie cult favorites Versus and Mangum's Elephant 6 Collective cohorts The Music Tapes. But the coolest update to the lineup is the return of Mike Watt & George Hurley performing the songs of the Minutemen, having had to cancel their original December appearance at the Festival.
Tickets are on sale on the ATP website, and we give the Minutemen a little hat tip after the jump. Fuck yeah.
