Cheers;)

I got into Gold Panda and Little Dragon in a big way since the start of the year. When I seen the B&S lineup I nearly exploded. Went to see Little Dragon at crawdaddys a few months back and they were amazing.
Really looking forward to this.

Hey All,

Looking at going for a B&B or lodge for the festival this year. Is Athboy the closest town? The Old Darnley is there and might be the best bet.

Any other recommendations for this? Have tried to look for accomm in Delvin but doesn't seem to be much.

Are there normally many taxis/buses outside after the gig that do a run to Athboy?

Thanks

I think Delvin is. Google it or ring the festival.
There will be taxis no bother anyway.



Did anyone see the 4 course meal you can get at B&S!? That's hilarious!!

Is there any volunteer driving up from Cork with space in their car? and willing to give me a lift?

this is just over 2 weeks away, was I wrong to be expecting a lot more than 18 music acts to be playing?

suppose there could still be some announced this week but still...

Anyone know anything about the number of tickets sold? Is it expected to sell out?

So what day is the volunteer orientation, do we have to come down on Thursday or is it just Friday? Also if any volunteers are travelling down to B&S from Galway and you have some room, throw me a pm, can contribute to fuel costs and I am good company.

Anyone else get the Sunday Times today?

There's an ad for a B and S ticket give-away on the front page but can't find any mention of it within the paper..

Went on to http://sundayclub.ie/ and they're saying they're giving away 100 pairs of weekend camping tickets to it. But they're looking for a code..

Anyone know where this code can be found?

Thanks!

Yeah I saw that. No code?

Outta curiosity, what is the age range for this?

A few of us going are just finishing the Leaving Cert that week. Don't worry we're not an Oxegen crowd. We love the lineup/Have been to Electric Picnic already.

Found the competition code in case anyone's interested..

It's BODYSOUL .

Whats the one for Electric Picnic?

bodhrandude

Right I have put together a facebook group for volunteering at the festival, I am trying to create a carpool and info service for other volunteers to get to the festival site for Friday morning. https://www.facebook.com/groups/103642026444227/

I think you'll be safe enough for tickets as most festival attendances are down on last year.

I will be absolutely stunned if EP sells out this year. (Unless they've dropped the capacity drastically that line up is not good enough in qunatity or quality to have 800 tickets left at this stage)

Just for a laugh where did you hear that there are 800 (very precise) tickets left.

He's not talking about EP.

what's the capacity of B&S?
lots of competitions and ads around at the moment for the festival, usually that means it's not near selling out....
