      The Pipettes are currently in the top 10 buzz bands on elbo.ws, and with tunes, moves and looks like these, it’s not hard to see why! The Pipettes enthralled the crowd at Manchester Dpercussion Festival the other week (5th Aug) – check out the photos below:

      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
