    Anyone know if it'll be difficult to bring a deflated/inflated small rubber dingy past sequrity into one of the stage audiences? :D

    I can't imagine there would be a problem unless someone has been battered to death with a rubber dingy before. :pac:

    You might need the dingy to negotiate your way around the festival if this bloody weather doesn't improve! :eek:

    Hi there,
    I have a day ticket and my friends have camping all weekend tickets.
    Anyone know could I stay in their tent that 1 night or would i have trouble getting into the campsite without a camping armband (I presume it's an armband system)
    It's my first time at Indiependence

    They check wristbands getting back into the campsite. We managed to sneak 2 wans from Galway into the campsite last year but it was the Sunday night when security were at the end of their tether. If you don't get in you could find yourself fierce stuck.

    Get a friend who has a loose wristband, do the plastic bag trick to slip it off and get someone to bring it out to you so you can get in just for the night.

    All I got was kids putting pencils through plastic bags full of water without spilling a drop :confused:
    Your mates might be able to distract the security lads with that clever little trick while you sneak in behind them ;)

    Standard last minute searching for tickets.... But anyone have one spare?

    My buddy has a campervan ticket but never actually got a ticket and now they are gone. He's my accommodation for the weekend!

    Would greatly appreciate it if anyone has one to spare that doesn't feel like ripping me off!

    There is a promise of lovely cans in return!

    I thought there was still tier 4 (or whatever the final, dearest tier is called?) Didn't think it was completely sold out yet?

    Looking for a Friday ticket myself if anyone knows of where I could get a cheap one? PM if you do (sorry mod if I'm breaking the rules here)

    Last minute decision. Wasn't going to bother this year, but I've been to every single one so far so don't wanna break the cycle. Probably going to be a mudbath but most of my friends are going and it's not every day Basement Jaxx play 20miles down the road from my house.

    Feck it, be better than staying home watching the Late Late Show with Ryan Tubridy and his toothbrush-shaped head!!

    To be honest, I've no other reason to be there except for them and fish go deep (possibly 80's v 90's). The late late is finished for the summer btw :pac:

    Surprised there was no schedules for sale inside. They could have made a fortune. We had to keep harassing a friend who'd photocopied the running order to find out who was on when.

    So back to normality, i had a great festival this was my second year at Indie, while the line up wasn't as strong this year i still had a great time, I heard a lot of people say this about the line up.

    Highlights for me where basement Jaxx ( I actually presumed this was just going to be a DJ set, but it was amazing with the live band). Little hours ( Irish band from donegal, great vocals) Kodaline, dandy warhols.

    Ash were a let down, Lead singer had a sore throat so they only did a 20 min set and half the songs were new material no one knew. No shining light played!! Koppenberg tent was always hopping.

    80 vs 90s every night in the barn was a great way to finish off each night, especially on the Sunday night it was absolutely class, great energy in there.

    I was camped in the campsite with all the food stalls and showers, I though the crowd was grand didn't see any rough elements , the crowd was a bit young but I'm an old buck at 27 anyway! :P

    Organization wise the festival itself was run well. Ques moved quickly, security people were sounds, no major problem bringing drink into arena once your not obvious, also having the showers free was a nice touch.

    I've been to four festivals this summer and over all I enjoyed indie the most, best run and best atmosphere of any I've been at this year. i will defo be back for '16.
