LANEWAY FESTIVAL – 31 JAN 2011 – AOTEA SQUARE, AUCKLAND
New Zealanders will experience their second Laneway Festival this year in the newly revamped AOTEA SQUARE, beside the Auckland Town Hall. The square itself is perfect for Laneway, with room to fit stalls, stages and audience comfortably with more space and atmosphere than ever, plus local arts showcases and delicious cuisine!
And now, the most important line-up; the exciting acts of this year and next – Behold:
YEASAYER – FOALS – LADYHAWKE – !!! (CHK CHK CHK) – DEERHUNTER – BLONDE REDHEAD – CHILDREN’S HOUR – WARPAINT – BEACH HOUSE – ARIEL PINK’S HAUNTED GRAFITTI – LAWRENCE ARABIA – HOLY FUCK – AN EMERALD CITY
NO!? Does that mean Warpaint will play into Blonde Redhead? Hope not.
Since its inception in 2004 in Melbourne, Australia, the Laneway Festival has become synonymous, as they say, with hot summer days, awesome locations and diverse, forward-thinking line-ups filled to overflowing with vital, surprising bands.
Favouring talent over mainstream success, Laneway has consistently brought compelling, boundary-pushing acts to discerning punters and this year’s event will continue that tradition.
ARGH needs a special friend I do I do! ‘Anyone’ want to come with or meet up?
