NASS Festival 2008

When Sports Vision decided to get us involved with the NASS Festival this year, we took the opportunity to promote the eclectic music bill of the event to as wide a range of sites as possible. News for the event has appeared across the board on sites such as Kerrang!, NME.com and a plethora of online zines including Rocklouder and Clickmusic. Dance sites such as Harder Faster have also been getting the word out. Competitions will also run on a variety of larger sites including Aloud, NME and Rock Sound.

The festival is in its tenth consecutive year and on June 13th-15th 2008 action sports and live music will rule at the Royal Bath and West Showground in Somerset. The highly charged festival has seen crowds in excess of 15,000 attending to experience a premier music and sports line-up, an extensive trade and adrenaline village, paintball arena and climbing area. The music bill consists of 35 internationally renowned acts across two live stages and the Relentless Bar. The Rock Sound magazine sponsored main stage will play host to a live set from Pendulum with support from newcomers Late of the Pier, Does It Offend You, Yeah?, Metronomy, Ghost Frequency, Devils Gun and We Smoke Fags. Saturday night will welcome some of the best names in rock and punk with headliners Less Than Jake and The Subways with support from Elliot Minor, Beat Union, In Case of Fire, Skirtbox, *Shels and Lioness.

Relentless NASS’s music bill also includes two days of renowned drum and bass and electro in the Indoor Arena. A 3am late license has paved the way for some big name DJ’s including Eddy Temple Morris, Micky Slim, Adam F and Subfocus. The final facet of the music-based entertainment comes in the form of the Relentless Bar – hosted by Streetwise Music. With DJs all day and a few acoustic sets from bands, this bar will be rounding off musical proceedings perfectly.
