James Scarlett and Gavin McInally (aka 2 Promoters 1 Pod) on ArcTanGent 2013 - Part 1
Manage episode 430473662 series 3582253
This week, we wander away from our regular format to bring you the first half of a special double-episode spectacular, taking a long, loving look at ArcTanGent 2013 with none other than ArcTanGent organizer James Scarlett and Damnation head honcho Gavin McInally.
The pair have recently been spilling all kinds of secrets on their thoroughly entertaining podcast 2 Promoters 1 Pod, and as there was a Damnation-curated stage at this inaugural edition of the festival, it seemed ideal to have them both along for a four-way chat.
For both Remfry and Simon, ArcTanGent is a – possibly THE – mandatory festival every summer, and we’re delighted to have the opportunity to reminisce about what made ArcTanGent 2013 such a memorable and important weekend for us, as well as find out a little more about what went on behind the scenes while we were out enjoying the music.
In this first part, we talk about the origins of ArcTanGent as a festival, how Gavin became involved, the site layout, and the pros and cons of the original Arc stage. We round off this episode talking about the single stage of bands who played on the early bird Thursday. And if you remember what happened at the end of that Thursday night, you probably want to listen to the end.
For the second half, we dig deep into the our thoughts, feelings and memories of the bands featured across the two main days of the festival. So expect plenty of talk about Earthtone9, Nordic Giants and Baby Godzilla, among many others. But you’ll have to wait till next week for that.
