    Does anyone have any idea on how the acts will line up in terms of order? What time should we expect SHM to start and finish? I reckon Calvin Harris will play right before SHM.

    Nope Calvin will be on either 1st or second since he has to fly to Scotland for TITP that day
    TITP is on the 6th of July.

    They must have changed it so, think he was originally to play both gigs in the same day

    I'd still be surprised if they would put a Calvin Harris DJ set right before SHM.

    With the gates opening at 4, I'd imagine The Original Rudeboys will start at half 4? Finishing before Calvin who'll start at about half five? A good guess I hope!

    Will there be anywhere to drink a carryout before hand, similar to people drinking around Slane? I'm guessing there won't be because it's in the middle of Dublin, but it can be very expensive sitting in a pub before hand.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985


    biggest urban park in europe....im sure youll find somewhere to have a few cans!

    People will be drinking everyhwere that day in the park given its a weekend, hopefully the weather is good.

    Probably, the park is absolutely monstrous in size - not every section of it can be policed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 303 ✭✭MattHelders


    Why in God's name is Tinie Tempah on after Snoop?


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭creativedrinker


    does any one know what the easiest way to smuggle drink into the gig is?? i don't think me and my bank account would be friends after drinking solid from 4 at a gig with their horrendous prices!!!

    When i used to go to see Man Utd and Booze was banned in the ground (Late 80's) we used to inject Oranges wit Vodka, then just stand watchin the match munchin on these oranges, took the cops months to twig what was goin on ;)

    If I had a hat on I'd take it off. That is the most ingenious way Ive ever heard. I just fill the 100 ml travel bottles with vodka and place them in my bag with my raincoat and stuff, never been caught.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,755 ✭✭✭A V A


    or if you have a rain coat, fill those little vodka bottles up and put them in your rain jacket pockets etc
