ATP have confirmed Godspeed You ! Black Emperor will be the guest curators of The Nightmare Before Christmas. A statement on the festivals site reads:
after a decade’s retreat, god’s pee has decided to roll again.
we are, as always, stoked, stubborn and petrified.
between now and the live-dates, there’ll be rivers of noise and distraction. and the internet is a petty tyrannical monster. please remember that really all that matters is the keep on keeping on. and all that really matters is the shows. and physical engagement in the world. and folks like us and folks like you. thanks for understanding, and thank you for still listening.
see you next winter.
