    No hope of that. They are copying the 'latitude' brand so to speak so the line-up should be the same genres as you'll get in the uk.

    If MCD announce someone like David Guetta today i'll not be going near it!

    If its a ff type festival but that big I can't see it doing well here. They will probably need at least 1 pretty big name

    I also saw this. Now it's taken from the Herald so to be taken with a pinch of salt. I think 200 or over is too much.
    Ticket prices are estimated to go for around €200.

    agreed, it would want to be a very good lineup to sell well for €200, considering FF was €115 last year for 3 days/3 stages.

    Is this line-up getting announced on the Radio, or just going up on their website?

    Not blown away by that at first glance although Vampire Weekend and Kraftwerk would both be good...

    Am guessing I'll wait for more details and end up going either Saturday and Sunday... probably Sunday as may be my only chance to see Kraftwerk - who knows when they'll play Ireland again.

    Weaker bill than Forbidden Fruit had last year in my opinion... and higher-priced tickets. Maybe they have more gooduns up their sleeve....

    I reckon both the FF and EP organisers will b happy enough with the announcement...

    presume they wont announce the day-by-day lineups until around June?

    probably not, but from the bottom of the handout it says:
    Friday - Phoenix
    Saturday - Vampire Weekend
    (presumably) Sunday - Kraftwerk

    Reckon there'll be much of a crossover of acts between Longitude, Forbidden Fruit or Electric Picnic? Or even some of the smaller festivals like Indiependence and Castlepalooza?

    Probably will be a while which is annoying. If I knew Jake Bugg was Saturday I'd definitely buy a ticket, as it is now I'm not sure. Him and VW are the only two I like

    Fairly pathetic line up that, but wasn't expecting anything else.

    I'd say there'll be a lot of takers for day tickets on this one so a breakdown should be out a lot sooner. Maybe even in April.

    Stage times etc. will be just before festival tho I'd say.

    Kraftwerk et al & just checking out the venue/ atmosphere is likely to tempt me along for a day - but with a lot of other festivals to choose from, that'll be it for me I'd say

    The price of the day tickets goes up in April so if they don't announce the day splits before then I won't be buying a ticket on principle!

    That's a pretty crap announcement, but if a couple of Kraftwerk, Foals, Kodaline or Hot chip fall onto the same day and day splits are announced whilst day tickets are still €45 I'll head along to one day. Would get bored of 3 days of that though.
