    Ah that justeat place will be tacky as, but I'll probably still take a wander in to see what the craic is. I'm musically illiterate these days and still mostly listen to bands from the nineties and before so I only know a handful of the acts. I'm looking forward to seeing new bands but will enjoy some of the familiar too.

    I've been at a full moon party - something tells me it'll be a little different in a field in Stradbally :pac:

    But had they stuck some decent music in there coulda been a bit of craic alright.

    Ya never know, the colours will probably attract me over at some stage:eek:

    Kasabian booked the weekend before and after. It's a long-shot but would be a great addition.

    They have confirmed there will be 'no more headliners'

    I doubt Kasabian would sit behind one of the three that are there......

    True enough. Definitely unlikely. Liam Gallagher also free EP weekend.

    Noel was good last year to be honest, bar the lashing rain. Oasis were a great band but I find yer man hard to stomach.

    Then again I was convinced (and really hoped) Jamiroquai would be playing this year and anyone I've said that to returns with 'Oh I hate that guy'

    How do you all know what Vogue is going to play?

    I'm banking on it being the Funeral Doom tent I've been longing for.

    For me DJ Vogue just reminds me of Amanda Brunker playing Oxegen a few years ago.

    I was actually kinda interested in the Full Moon thing until her name popped up

    For the main stage anyway, theres still the EA, Rankins Woods, LBT, Cosby and what other marquees and stages headliners to be announced too.

    Based on what I know about Vogue*, I'm putting my money on an all-Slayer set.














    *Note: I may not actually know as much about Vogue as I have let on...

    PM me directly, there is possibly a few unfilled volunteer roles available, unlikely to be preshow, but reasonable hours and enjoyable roles.

    The B & S headliners are still to be announced. I'd be really surprised if we havent got our headliners from EA, Cosby and LBT, certainly last years headliners from these were all in the early announcements. EA headliners are likely to be Interpol level.

    Sounds like a cr@p reconstruction of the Zoo Project in Ibiza, in itself the worst venue on the island.

    Congrats Just Eat :mad:

    Really happy about Public Service Broadcasting at B&S tho
