    If everyone could stick The Queen Is Dead on at about 6pm this will act as tribute to the Festival Gods, ensuring our safe return to the Elysian Fields next year.

    So you're saying we can start drinking cans at our usual EP time?

    I'm late.

    A buddy of mine just sent me a picture of himself and his wife. They've put up the pop up tent in their sitting room, and are sitting in camping chairs drinking cans.
    That's dedication to the cause.

    Have been playing live EP sets from the ipod the last few days, Iggy Pop & the Stooges 07, LCD Soundsystem 05, Royksopp 05, Leftfield 2010, Roots Manuva 09, Moderat 09, Crystal Castles 08 among others at the moment.

    PS. If you want a link to my mediafire page this has a list of downloadable concerts from the Electric Picnic past brought to you courtesy of the old 2FM streams.

    Feck it looks like link just takes you into log in page, its getting harder to do this stuff now. I used to have a post in the old Electric Picnic forum for downloading live sets from the festival.

    Kkc were due to be playing the main stage at some point today, as well as RATM. Mark the Drummer was on today FM earlier. Said "slate is wiped clean" in relation to lineup, unlike body and soul, no automatic transfer of acts from 20 to 21.

    As much as I love kkc live, they suit smaller packed, intense venues, just cant see main stage during daylight working for them, + if televised it would look like a joke.

    Was reminiscing with volunteers on Facebook last night that we would've finished all our shifts by then, wristbanded, and set off to Stradbally for a bite to eat, sorting the weekend carryout and what not and having a feed of pints with the EP & Body & Soul crew in Ramsbottom's pub. Well, hopefully next year.

    Moncrieff just chatting to a bloke who's making candles that evoke the stuff we're all missing. He has a festival one. I'm not sure a candle that smells like the inside of your tent on the Sunday morning would be a big seller.
    Excellent variety of EP celebrations lined up on here fair play. I've a band tshirt on. I might just give a random teenager a root up the hole outside the shop. Just my own little tribute.

    Excellent idea.
    The kick a teenager thing, not the portaloo smelling candle.

    Just found a Bodytonic page dedicated to its time with Electric Picnic for all us elders. Bodytonic was there from 2004 - 2008 I think, the marquee was about the same size as the Cosby Tent. https://320kbps.hindiaz.com/file/bodytonic-soundsystem-3-the-electric-picnic.xhtml

    Did Bodytonic not have a set-up as late on as 2011/12? Pretty sure I remember them in the Woods. As much as i can remember the Woods, of course.
