    Jeaaaaaasus, RHCP sounding BRUTAL!!

    The first time I've see Kiedis perform with his top on! "What's the matter laddie Scotish summer too cold for ya, ya big buffty!"

    They have gotten progressively worse live as years have gone by
    Wow. It's insanely bad. Rhythm section not in sync, Kiedris & Klinghoffer way out of tune and they just look jaded. The kids seem to love 'em though.

    Considering Bits&Pieces is a Scottish national anthem I'm not surprised there's so little at LCD or any of the lighters in the air bands.

    All the electetronic gigs there looked rammed.

    I'm aware that ticket selling/buying isn't allowed here, but do people reckon a Sunday day ticket may be hard to come by?

    Cheers buddy, assumed they'd sold out! According to Lana Del Ray's website she's playing the Sunday, is there any chance this is incorrect? Dying to see her.

    Best bet is keep an eye on toutless, esp closer to the event, there will always be people who have something that pops up and need to dump the ticket

    It's getting pretty late in the day now for there to be any relatively big names announced imo, what is it 8 weeks away?

    Unless there is an act or 2 playing at Longitude that will also be announced for the Picnic, how likely is this?

    Did it happen last year or the year before?

    We've had the likes of Jenny Lewis added pretty late, not a huge name but a pretty decent one, so I wouldn't be shocked to see some mid to low level surprises added.

    Don't think so, he'd be too high profile for a late addition.

    Has to be a load more added, Kormac isn't in the list yet and he's nearly played every picnic. Hopefully early sell out hasn't made them complacent and they think they've the line up nailed.

    Is it only 50 tickets 3 are putting in sale, no chance EP will have another round of tickets with another artists named?

    Next Monday, they're announcing when the last batch of (3 plus) tickets go on sale.
    I'd be expecting an announcement (of more artists) then also.

    Just double checked the article I read was a year out, on the 31st of July last year they released only 50 tickets I think, hopefully it'll be a lot more than that, 3 might be trying to have a big headliner and only their customers get a chance for tickets.

    I'm still holding out for a few big acts, electric arena headliner size acts, M83 for example. I don't think EP are under any pressure to front load the big acts on the announcements as the tickets are already sold out. No need to stimulate ticket sales, they can easily hold back names and save some wow factor for each announcement

    I reckon it will be mostly acts like Kormac as you say, maybe Ham Sandwich, Bleeding Heart Pigeons and the like.

    Can't see any big/mid level names being added this late.
