    If you bring speakers into the campsite I'll personally shove them up your arse

    Broken Social Scene v Talos
    SFA v Chemical Brothers v Rusangano Family
    Noel Gallagher v The Shins v John Talabot
    LCD Soundsystem v New Jackson
    Wild Beasts v Savages
    Wolf Alice v Animal Collective

    That's just downright bad luck on my part.

    Rusangano family def have 2 performances

    Think the back of the shirt would then need to read
    "if found, please return me to camping site x/camper van reg #696969"

    I've being trying to find this out too but haven't found any info saying yes yet so I've stocked up on small cans of craft beers, O'Brien's in Naas have a large selection.

    There's a few Heineken group umbrella craft beers available at the craft beer stand. About six options including a wheat beer iirc. They might have had Caledonian 80 Schilling, which is nice, if you're not into hoppy stuff.

    What are Daft as Punk exactly? Just a straight up DP tribute act?


    I've seen them before and they're not that great tbh. It's just 2 lads in leather jackets and fancy helmets playing Daft Punk CDs. They don't use Ableton like Daft Punk do live, they don't anything different with the songs, they just hit play and dance about a bit. Having said that, with the festival atmosphere I'm sure it'll be a bit of craic anyway!

    The Viper had them at his 'Oxogen' Festival back in 2015
    Good craic!

    Excellent app. The official one is decent this year but Pablo has the nice touch of highlighting your clashes which makes it much easier to follow.

    I'm pretty sure they were playing with a few loops and effects last year. Certainly more than just hitting play. I wouldn't be going to them for outright musicianship or technical skills all the same. It's just a bit of a laugh.

    This settles it for me .. Whilk & Misky on Friday it is and if I still have a bit of energy over to Oxjam for the end of this, which is on the way home anyway i guess.

    Accuweather now saying:

    Friday: Cloudly with some showers :cool:
    Saturday: Rain and then more rain :mad:
    Sunday: Partly sunny :)

    The ever changing forecasts are an emotional roller-coaster!

    Think the friday rain is early morning so it's only the Sat rain we need to worry about. All in all, i'd take it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,732 ✭✭✭Arne_Saknussem


    Yeah the Met Eireann 5 day forcast is giving rain late Thursday/early hours of Friday, then nothing until heavy showers Saturday afternoon to early evening and clearing up later on.

    Sunday looking decent.
