Where did you hear that? Have they announced it?

I can't link it as it's been so long. Esentially they're expanding the site, opening more camping (as it was packed last year which resulted in people being moved into VIP areas)

and switching layout of the arena to improve flow. Also I expect the comedy spiegeltent to be replaced by something bigger.

That all sounds good. Arrived on the Saturday last year and got to camp in VIP area. Dunno how you get to camp there in first place. Didn't seem to be any VIP tickets on sale but maybe they're given out by festival.

Did anyone use the Boutique camping last year? We were in general camping and in my old age I'd prefer the possibility of a bit of added security and more peace and quiet past 3 or 4 am.

Particularly looking at the pods, 605e for a 6 man seems reasonable?

We stayed in boutique last year... a Bellepad with 2 beds and sheets would highly recommend, we are defo gonna book again for this year. €605 is for a 2 man podpad I think though... the bigger ones are more expensive

Edit sorry €605 for a 6 person Bellepad, very good value

That is just the basics thou, but I'm fine bringing chairs, sleeping bags mats etc

5m Bellepad
• Groundsheet and carpet
• Maximum occupancy is 6 adults

The beds were comfortable enough if you're willing to pay a bit extra.

Ours had plenty of space and could stand up fully which was very handy for getting dressed etc.

Boutique campsite had complimentary tea and coffee in the morning time too

I thought the comedy tent was lovely and a great little spot for the less well-known acts but how they thought it would be sufficient for the bigger names, I don't know.

OHH tea an coffee would be lovely !!!! :P

Did anyone stay in those 'yokes' that looked like dog kennels ?? They didn't look the biggest from just walking past , maybe they were like a Tardis on the inside ??

Noticed a comment there on one of ATN FB posts from ATN that the new acts will be announced same date as last year, so mid February.

Just said I'd share as there were some hopes that it would be earlier this month

Are you talking about the Podpads? I didn't stay in them but a friend stayed in them at ep last year and said they were great they have plug sockets so you can charge your phone and they brought a toastie maker with them to see if it would work and it did ( but I think they're only supposed to be used for phone chargers ) we are considering booking one for this year for both all together now and ep

Furious-Red

Id love to see a few of the following added

Tame Impala(but my gut is saying they will be snapped up by EP)
The Strokes
Caravan Palace
Basement Jaxx
Franz Ferdinand
Bloc Party
Editors
Interpol
Band of Horses

Hey all,

Has anyone here volunteered at ATN last year. What were your experiences? @Bodhrandude did you do this? edit (all good now; reading your blog)

Did you end up doing 3 x 8 hours or 4 x 6 hour shifts.

Was thinking of doing this with the GF to save money.

Thanks

Any experiences of Body & Soul are also welcome.

edit : Reading Bodhrandude's blog so all good people.

Hoping nothing from there or Lolapalooza Paris turn up for ATN, really bland lineups.

I dont. I wouldnt be overly enthused with them headlining, considering their last above average album was released in 2003, but theyre the only decent live act on either bill as far as i can see.

I don't see the Strokes on either bill, where is everyone getting the Strokes from?

Oof. That Green Man line up is excellent.

Four Tet, Father John Misty, Idles, Sharon van Etten, Broken Social Scene, Whitney, Car Seat Headrest, Maribou State, Steve Mason, Julia Jacklin, and Avi Buffalo would all be very welcome!

I reckon Electric Picnic.

Newish band, making a name for themselves, playing great gigs with energy to spare.

I smell a cash grab.

And then a nice break in 2020 to rest and record.
