    Working very hard at the moment. Three of the five members have managed to grow their families by one in the past few months so everythings slowed down as nappy brain has swept through the group.

    Sleep deprived meetings but meetings nonetheless and progess being made. Hope to make some announcements Feb 29th.

    Great stuff, seriously looking forward to hearing the line-up. It should be another unreal weekend, as long as the "there's no Oxegen so we better get wrecked in some other field" crowd don't descend on the place...fingers crossed!

    From the sounds of it they have plenty of the bands lined up already but they want to start with a bang announcing the headliners! I'm sure the lesser known names will be announced straight after the headliners

    Went to it last year, there were still tickets being sold on the weekend it was on.

    Not sure will it be the same this year or not, but I'd say you'll be able to get tickets after the announcement no bother!

    Must say had a quality time at it. There was just a really nice vibe about the place.

    I'd been to Oxegen twice and there's always a few idiots at that but at Indiependence I didn't bump into any eejit - everyone seemed in great from and were there to enjoy themselves. I'd def recommend it!

    Japanese Popstars are a good catch, Feeder are ok but not to my taste( would consider them to be has-beens). Jape, Frank & Walters and Delerentos have all played before.

    Not to impressed really, the line up's seem a bit lazy and surely Indiependence are making enough money now to be getting higher profile bands?

    Tickets.ie is the ticket site Indie use. You can get them there already and they are safe out just in case you have never heard of them
