    • Manchester DPercussion 2006 runtimes

      Looking for runtimes for today’s Manchester DPercussion?

      You can download a handy A4 PDF print-out of all the acts and stage times via the BBC’s website:

      http://www.bbc.co.uk/manchester/pdf/dperclineup.pdf

      NB: Remember all times are subject to change
      On the A4 printout not all the acts have specific times by their names, so I guess they could be performing any time within the 30 minute timeslot… best to get there early if it’s a band you really want to see

      Badly Drawn Boy and The Longcut for CH4 Show?

      It’s still unclear who’s playing at Transmission with T-Mobile tomorrow in Manchester, although a quick Google search reveals this:

      Transmission with T-Mobile

      “Badly Drawn Boy, The Long Cut, The View, Orson and The Egg”

      …but for some reason the webpage doesn’t load up (so maybe it’s an old or CH4 internal page?
