Subject: Scan-Indie website - please read
Hello all,
I just want to let you know that the normal server the Scandinavian Indie
website is running on has grown so slow during the latest weeks - due to
the heavy traffic - that sometimes you can't even get to it.
Therefor - I urge everyone who ever visits the Scan-Indie website to use
an alternative address instead. The alternative address is about 200%
faster than the regular - as it is another server (which almost no one
else uses or knows about) - the only thing you lose on using the alternative
address is the counters. You won't see how many people have visited the
pages - though I don't believe it is of great interest to you anyway,
right?
So - the alternative - and a thousand times more preferable URL to the
Scandinavian Indie website is:
http://www2.lysator.liu.se/~chief/scan.html
(that's right - just add a '2' after www - and you have it)
And if www2 becomes slow or does not answer (as it really does not
right now - god knows why...) - just use the regular address!
//Erik - tip o the day. ;)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
UMEA OPEN FESTIVAL - MORE BANDS
-------------------------------
The northern festival (April 3-4 in Umea, Sweden) adds even
more names to the already impressive line-up (complete info
including the schedule can be found on the Scandinavian Indie
website - festivals):
Antiloop (Stockholm)
Grammy award winners delivering new Swedish dance music.
Swinging and gold selling. Slated for the friday night (3rd).
Caesar's Palace (Dolores)
Rome wasn't built in a day and this unholy alliance didn't
pop up like a fungus from the ground either. The constallation
has building blocks like Claes Ahlund (former Teddybears).
Their new album "Youth Is Wasted on The Young" shows that the
band is one of the most interesting ones in Sweden today.
Saturday (4th).
Doktor Kosmos (NONS)
The Doc will perform the rock opera "Stjarnjerry" (otherwise
performing in Stockholm only) at the festival.
Fly (Dolores)
Sweden's newest and hottest band. From the ashes of what once
used to be the legendary band Easy, rises Fly and pop-Sweden
is knocked out. With the recently released album "Green Lights",
Fly is heading for higher heights. Nordica stage on saturday
(4th).

3. HULTSFRED FESTIVAL - EVEN MORE BANDS ADDED
The Hultsfred Festival (June 11-13 in Hultsfred, Sweden)
management revealed even more bands today, and it looks
like the Danish Roskilde Festival will have a hard time
bringing something exclusive this year... Take a look at
the latest Hultsfred-ready bands (the complete info can
be found on the Scandinavian Indie website - festivals):
Coal Chamber (US), Garbage (US/UK), Grand Tone Music (S),
HIM (SF), Life Of Agony (US), Misery Loves Co (S),
Neurosis (US), Sideshow Bob (S).

4. GARBAGE AT PROVINSSIROCK
The way the festivals in Scandinavia are booking their bands,
we can probably expect to see the headliners in whatever country
we live/want - ie. eliminating the need for traveling somewhere
else. None of us travel for the music alone anyway (right?) so
it's just ridiculous. Seems like the only "exclusive" acts at each
festival are the domestic ones. Provinssirock (June 12-14 in
Seinajoki, Finland) have these in common with Roskilde (DK) and
Hultsfred (S) (from the 9 booked so far - complete info can be
found on the Scandinavian Indie website - festivals):
Black Sabbath with Ozzy (UK), Dimmu Borgir (N), Garbage (US/UK),
Kent (S), Misfits (US).

SOUND AFFECTS CELEBRATES 10TH ANNIVERSARY
-----------------------------------------
Sweden's best pop magazine, Sound Affects, celebrates its 10th
anniversary in April. Ten years and 38 issues is pretty impressive
as the magazine has been on the edge of the grave several times
for various reasons during the years. The latest issue (out now),
number 38, is a golden logo "special" with more than fifty top-
album lists, articles about Mary Lou Lord, Jaguar, Guy Chadwick,
Can, Barbara Manning, Bernard Butler, Caesar's Palace, Confusions,
Fly, Helen Love, Kristin Hersh, Perfect, Sideshow Bob, Subsonics,
and Thirddimension - as well as the usual sections and reviews.
Subscribers receive a special white coloured hard vinyl EP with
songs from The Flatmates, The Handmedowns, The Walkabouts and
Cheepskates.

Yes you read it! Cult band Sisters Of Mercy have selected to
play at the Arvika Festival (July 10-11, Arvika Sweden), and it
is their only Swedish gig. Their first Swedish concert in seven
years! Pretty damn exclusive!
The Festival release party (live music, DJ, snacks, liquid) is held
at Jager in Karlstad on April 1st, and that's when most of the
line-up will be revealed as well. 8.000 tickets are available this
year, and it looks like it's going to be sold out pretty fast.

Cloudberry Jam (NONS), who are on tour in the US at the moment,
took a few minutes of their time today to send their love and
a short report back to Scandinavian Indie. Here's a rough
translation:
"Hi!
It's a bit hard to get (especially for us five blue-eyed jaw-
dropping people from Ostergotland) that we're in Minneapolis.
We played at the club where Prince recorded Purple Rain once
earlier tonight and it was a great gig. Played in Austin
on saturday, and tomorrow we're in Chicago.
Everyone says hi, and prepare for lots of stories when we
get back home.
Jennie Medin and the merry men"

The short but sweet CBJ tour in the U.S. has come and gone. Unfortunately for
us New Yorkers, there were no shows slated for NYC. This is a crime. I
contacted Jennie, and she stated that they would return again. And to think,
I just moved from San Francisco to the East thinking I would catch more pop
shows. I heard that the Ray wonder show in NY included smoke and fire?! Can
someone ellaborate?
The three shows were:
Austin, TX, SXSW, Maggie Mae's West -Saturday, March 21
With Ray Wonder
Minneapolis, MN, First Avenue Mainroom - Tuesday, March 24
With the Hang Ups and Florida
Chicago, IL, Lounge Ax - Wednesday, March 25
With Jeff Tweedy

So what is it with Scandinavian indie bands? They always head straight
for the midwest, and play Chicago, Wisconsin, or Minneapolis! The
Icelandic band Kolrassa Krokridandi did that a couple years ago -- I was
pissed! They must feel more at home there, cos of the climate and all
the Scandinavian-Americans in that region.....
I'd travel several hundred miles to see them, but I'm not going so far
as Chicago!

From: "Micke Rehnstrom"
Subject: Acid House Kings
Swedish popsters ACID HOUSE KINGS have released a new album on the American
label Shelflife. The album had already been released in Japan but now it is
also released in the USA. It is available via mail order from the label.
You can hear sound samples from all the tracks on the album - and also get
a whole lot of info, pictures and stuff about the band - if you visit the
label website at
http://www.shelflife.com
/Micke, also recommending the "The dator years" album by TRES NOONERS highly

They only played a few gigs (three all in all) - Austin TX (SXSW), the
second in Minneapolis and the last (25/3) in Chicago IL.
About the Lysator server - it's been up'n'down the last couple of weeks.
I have complained about it - and it seems fine now. But just to make
sure - if one URL doesn't work - try the second one. Ie.
1st: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/scan.html
2nd: http://www2.lysator.liu.se/~chief/scan.html
And the 2nd one is a lot faster - though you won't see any counters.
I almost always use the 2nd one myself.
