They did not say they would be back for EP, they said that the reason why they are so popular now was because of a set they did at EP few years back. Nothing about being back at EP this year

Just as well... People might, Freak Out!

I'll get my coat.

I'm guessing the 2009 appearance in the Electric Arena he was referencing .. which was really special in fairness!

Nah I think Ireland is well and truly Chic'd out

Regarding lack of announcements ... it is baffling at this stage. What other festival (in the world) follows this drip-feed model?!?

Loyal following rapidly losing patience!

Come on guys - Nile Rogers - all the old Disco classics - yes it's a lazy booking - but it will be FUN and we can jump around and sing all the words (and so can the "young uns" - cos they would have those songs covered on Glee) (No I've never watched Glee - just that whenever the kidz know the words - and I'm impressed thinking ah they've discovered the old sounds - they ask how I know the words...……….. cos they heard it on Glee

If you look at previous years this year is pretty much the same, not sure why everyone is getting so impatient, it’s the same every year!

Yeah, but time is a pain in the ass, why can't we just remove time.

So should we expect an announcement tomorrow heralding friday’s actual announcement?

thebusher · 19-06-2018 04:49PM

Anyone think George Ezra could headline one of the tents?

Loving his album which I'm surprised at given my teenage kicking background.

He played the main stage a couple of years ago, I don't think the stink has washed off it yet... I'd sooner go watch my parents riding than see him again.

It would be funny if Electric Picnic was happening this weekend at Body & Soul festival was happening on August 31st.

The fear.

Is what I meant to say.

MadYaker · 19-06-2018 09:25PM

He was enjoyable enough on the main stage a few years ago. Great voice. I can't see him moving too far up the bill though.

Could be like an eyeball Paul DJ set from Kevin and Perry with them riding in the background.. all I wanna do is do it

It still hurts me that I was at his set at the main stage and skipped the War on Drugs. I'm 90% sure they were clashing. We were based at the main stage, the sun was belting down and we stayed for his set. It was grand like but no excuses for anyone missing the War on Drugs for it.
