    Looks good.
    I see (on twitter) they're following Bilio, Talos, Wolf Alice, Alter Hours, and Young Fathers

    Festival run by the lads behind Live at St Luke's.

    Young Fathers to headline, Andrew Weatherall, Fujiya & Miyagi, Altered Hours, Le Boom and Brian Deady on the list too, as well as a literary strand with Kevin Barry, according to the Examiner.
    Tickets go on sale on December 7 at noon, and organisers say all-inclusive prices (accommodation, gigs, etc) for the three nights will be in the region of €200-€255 per head, depending on the accommodation booked.

    Even including accommodation, that seems pretty saucy to me, though.

    Are they following the lead of package holiday at holiday resorts you hear of in England?

    Might go myself as live nearby, some alright bands mentioned above.

    I was hoping there'd be a non-accommodation option a little bit cheaper than quoted but doesn't look like it, sadly. I live close enough too so could have travelled over to catch Young Fathers and a few others but wouldn't be springing for 200+ for what's on offer ATM.

    would be interested but the lineup isn't much use at the moment.
    Andrew Weatherall as second name, played in Wigwam a few weeks ago and it wasn't even sold out. most of the rest are small gig support fodder.

    Ah if there's nothing non-accommodation based then I'll give it a skip. More of a novelty to head to a gig there really.
