Great announcement from Jerry Fish, can see myself spending more time down there than usual! I wonder are they going to make it any bigger otherwise it will be absolutely rammed for certain gigs. Did I completely imagine this or did someone say after last years EP that they heard that the Jerry Fish tent could be moving to somewhere outside of the main arena? Like the Salty Dog, Trenchtown etc.

I'd imagine if it was moving or increasing in size the update would have mentioned it.

I presume the sideshow disco will be a safe haven if you've gotten too old/tired for the rave in the woods? It seems like the latter has been too heavy the last couple of years

There was a lot of complaining about the noise bleed into that stage from the twin abominations that were the fake ciggie crew and the st1t beer stage.

Updated for this.

Some great additions in there.

Le Galaxie, Frank and Walters and Murder Capital, solid additions. Jerry doesn't disappoint.

Every one singing along to after all in that tent will be a moment!

Ahhh....The Minutes...great memories of them in 2014.

Brilliant to see them back.

I just need to hear 'Put the chain on' and I'll be happy!

MsMojave · 13-08-2018 12:45PM

Is there anything left to announce then?

They are hillarious hard to know if they are a comedy act. Don't think I'll go see them heard they sold out the Olympia in a few hours so will be fairly popular.[/quot

Not comedy but best part is one is from Sandymount!

Peterd66 · 13-08-2018 12:57PM

Great at Vantastival as well

dansan7 · 13-08-2018 12:58PM

Jerry Fish and The Pirate Ship seem to have bigger acts this time around. Some really solid bands! Missed Engine Alley last time so will definitely be there this year. Jack O’Rourke seems to be playing with them, and he’s a fantastic singer, to sweeten the deal!

Looks like I’ll be doing more walking at EP18!

mimimcmc · 13-08-2018 01:01PM

Great line up from Jerry Fish! Delighted the Minutes are back

Would love if the stage was moved to outside the arena, would be perfect for it!

Wasn't sure what to expect, right up my street they are

I would guess the Sunday night, as get down edits are Friday and mother are sat

Stillill42 · 13-08-2018 02:59PM

That's a pretty stellar late night line-up. Jerry's is the place to be after midnight. I hope he's got himself a bigger tent.

Ah in fairness we don't know many times at all so we can't say it's light yet.. It usually is a little bit lighter than the other two days though so not a shock if it is the same again this year. Wonder who will headline the EA on the Friday? Bicep were class last year.

Nina Kraviz or Denis Sulta would probably be the closest to Bicep for it?

Probably. Although I reckon the young lads would throw a wobbler if either of those clashed with Kendrick Lamar :pac:
