Nope, I made a few suggestions as to how you might find some "new" bands that you might like, you denigrated that approach so I decided to state that I was bored of you which I am.

Nope. You patronized the bejaysus out of me and then decided to retreat when you were outwitted and outclassed.

When I need 'help to find new bands' then I'll be sure to give this thread a swerve, based on the apparent music taste of it's contributors.

P.S I'm bored of you now.

I'm bored of this crap. Any more of it and the usual cards/bans will follow.

As in don't reply to each other or anyone else if it's to whinge and def don't reply to this message. It's a bank holiday weekend. Go out. Have some fun. Lighten up.

Idiots you can still buy a ticket on Ticketmaster, they probably put it up too early.

Haven't been to a festival in quite a while anybody know if you need a ticket for parking???

Either way that proves it's extremely close to selling out

Not sure what the craic is, they posted the pic I posted above then deleted it soon after.

Last year on 22/8 they said there were a limited number of tickets left, announced it was sold out on 23/8, I'd imagine there will be a "close to sold out" warning. Wouldn't risk it if you really want to go though, beg steal or borrow!

Still available on ticketmaster, convenient timing to release as picture like that on a lot of peoples pay days?

Quite a few people haven't been paid today, some problem with Bank of Ireland I think.

Nothing on the website about it being sold out. Just that Sunday and Campervan tickets are gone.

hotpress:

Electric Picnic organisers have announced that the festival is on the brink of selling out
The Stradbally celebration has never seen tickets snapped up in such a short time before, and there are no more than a handful remaining.

Whether it's dancing to Outkast, grooving to Chic or going on the emotional rollercoaster that is Beck, the festival is going to be an incredible weekend. The unlucky souls who miss out are going to be left licking their wounds, but a capacity crowd will be in for a cracking time.

It really is your final opportunity to grab them, so go! Go now! Hot Press will see you there...

I'm not surprised. Enough on the line-up to attract people and it's the last big party of the summer before college/leaving the country/work/etc.

It's definitley SOLD OUT now

Good and bad about that. Hope they do take into account the extra 6000 and expand accordingly. There were years at Oxegen where it descended into a sub- shanty town in the campsite because of the lack of room (weather assisted of course).

murdog!

Yep, looks like they are gone

Ticketmaster says sold out as well

I'd say adding Hozier, BBC, James Vincent McMorrow and the 1975 definitely helped push things along with the tickets.

Wouldn't have encouraged me, won't be watching any of them. Although thats purely cos I've seen Hozier 3 times now and seen the rest as well. The 1975 are pure shíte so will be far far away when they are playing.

Definitely, they are very popular bands/acts and the lineup was a little left of center for a lot of people

There is room to make the campsite bigger from what i remember there was a chaplin campsite back in 2009 where the campervans have been recently.

I am taking a year off. I don't like the idea of bigger crowds but if the success ticketwise means the likes of arcadia and all the other side shows coming back in future years i might turn a blind eye in years to come.
