As the summer kicks into full swing, the festivals start appearing. With altsounds growing by the day it has never been a better time to start new, fresh projects.

Altsounds needs ideas for media coverage for this years festivals.

We need your ideas for how to go about it.

Post us your ideas, links to sites that cover them, anything you can think of.

Also, anyone got tickets for glasto, vfestival, latitude, leeds/reading this year?

Let us know if you can get involved.

Well, I'm off to FiB next month so will do my usual foggy festival report. As to innovative mind blowing suggestions on how to go about covering the rest of them, I fear I can be of little help.

Hmmm, we'll have to agree to disagree on this one then, but I have reasons why I think it shouldn't be here which I won't go into here.

Anywho, I have arranged for Lina to cover ATP's Nightmare Before Christmas festival in December. It's curated by My Bloody Valentine - http://hangout.altsounds.com/news/10...t mare+before

I'll take loads of photos but I'm not sure how many will be suitable for a family site. See what I get when the dust settles.

I might be helping Lina sort out some interviews for whilst she is at ATP. May as well get her working as much as possible whilst she's there (eh Lina? )

She promised no tomfoolery.

It would be cool for someone with a phone to actually blog about these things live, all you would need is a 3G phone with e-mail and I could setup for that to autopost to a thread that would be updated by the person while they are at the festivals. They'd still be moderated so we can edit out some of your drunkeness hahaha.
