New music from Elbow, would expect to see them on the festival circuit next year.

Oh don't say that, it'd make me regret not getting a ticket.

The last time they played it was on the back of a tour earlier in the year so hopefully we might get them elsewhere.

Pet Shop Boys have announced a Greatest Hits tour for next May/June.
Glastonbury cert you'd think, I'd say there's a fair chance of them turning up in Stradbally too.

I'd love to see them again, they didn't go down that well last time they played (2014?), lot of grumblin at the time.

I thought they were great last time they played, put on a great show, but I am famous for being out of steps with most opinions.

We didn't actually see most of their set - they came on late as far as I can remember and we had a prior engagement with a man about a rave in a wood.

Same here. Never seen them being less than great. Best of all when they headlined the Electric Arena to finish the festival back in 2006. What an atmosphere that was.

I am back bitches!!
Missed this year due to a heavily pregnant wife. Tickets sorted for next year, now just to get the idea that bringing an 11 month old to EP next year is a good idea out of the Mrs head...
Looking forward to the weather prediction section of the thread starting. I think it's going to rain.

Well, the baby has yet to arrive, so I reckon I'll be beaten with a stick if I suggest anything other than chocolate between now and Xmas.

We're October 2nd.

I made the decision early this year not to go, it's a weekend we've always done together since we started going out, so I didn't think it was fair. Plus, I'm hoping I've a bit of credit in the bank now.

Best of luck to you both with everything.

Sunil Sharpe (Rave in the Woods) if it was the 2014 one I think.

I agree with you kepler thought it was great

I enjoyed PSB @ EP but couldn’t help feeling it would have been great to see them 10-20 years earlier.

Only time I’ve seen them live - hated them as a kid, loved them since my early twenties.

Would def take them back in Stradbally

Congrats lads.

We missed last year as our young fella was only 8 weeks old at the time.
We both went this year and had a great time, but the tiredness must have played a big part as I was only able for one heavy night (Friday) and took it very easy the next 2 days...

Get all the sleep you can, and start taking the milk thistle in the lead up to next years picnic!

It's early. I read this as Public Service Broadcasting. Was a bit of a head scratcher. Need another coffee clearly.

EP official competition for tickets, takes 3/4 mins to fill in a survey.

"How important is location when thinking of buying tickets?"

Strange question. Would they ever think of moving?

On the other hand, they will probably make a word cloud from the headline and other act suggestions, so get typing r...a...d...i....
