    Ah, didn't know that. Am really surprised EP didn't get in there first. And from what I've seen there's rarely any crossover between the two fests. Don't know who else to hope for. Thurston Moore? Grandaddy after their Vicar St gig? Chuck Prophet?

    Anyone catch the LCD stream? Flawless for the full 90 min, kept the crowd going despite the rain and finished with five bangers. Dance Yerself Clean was phenomenal but no Bowie or Prince covers (only Coachella seems to have got those). They're going to storm Stradbally.

    Counting the days.

    Apparently Red Bull are looking after 2 areas this year. The main area will be in the arena, They are also looking after the woods. The woods will be local DJ's. The arena will have international DJs.

    whereabouts in the arena I wonder? does that mean a bit of a reshuffle of the site maybe:confused:

    She was only average last time I saw her at EP. Think she had lost all her gear though which made things a bit difficult.

    She was brilliant at the Olympia despite being electrocuted by her gear repeatedly.

    You can only buy the one day ticket and thats Sunday, they sold out long ago, otherwise if you want to do Friday or Saturday it has to be a weekend ticket and they are also sold out for a long time too, check toutless or donedeal.

    Watching some recorded Glasto coverage, I see the lead singer obviously had his hair cut off at a house party ;):):)

    I saw LCD and Wolf Alice at Glastonbury and I can confirm that both were awesome. Wolf Alice pulled a huge crowd to the pyramid stage and rightly so imo. LCD were on a nother level though, those few days really gave me a taste for picnic. I just wish it wasn't so far away.

    Welcome back to normality!! I'd say the horror is firmly setting in!!

    Yea noticed the wolf Alice crowd on TV, it'll be mayhem if they don't play the main stage at the EP!

    No lad I'm not. I've gone to every picnic for the last 6 or 7 years and I've never gotten a ticket more than a week in advance. Genuine question, save your bull****e.

    They were outstanding, I wasn't expecting it. I'd love to see them outside of a festival setting.

    If you've been for the last 6-7 years then you'd know that times/days don't get released till the week of the festival..

    I go, I show up, I enjoy music. I do not look at days or times in advance. I have a simple question, as this year I want to see one act. If you cannot answer the question just move along. It's simple.
