Meltdown of the north

Spiritualized mainman Jason Pierce will curate next May's Evolution festival in Newcastle, promising it will be like "a history of music". Evolution - which takes place over a week in almost every venue in the city - has been running for several years, but this is the first time a "curator" has been asked to pick the bill in the manner of London's Meltdown.

Pierce says he thought initially they'd "got the wrong person", but found the organisers wanted "somebody with a particular taste who could bring a lot of great music to Newcastle". Thus far, he says, acts lined up include the Stooges, the Cramps and lo-fi godfather Daniel Johnston, whose last UK appearance was at the David Bowie-curated 2002 Meltdown.

"I've given the organisers my dream line-up," says Pierce. "Everyone from Brian Wilson to Kraftwerk to Lee Hazelwood. Without counting any chickens, it's kinda working out."
