    The fear of skangers attending due to the prodigy in here is hilarious

    I was very meh on them playing, looking at their set lists, varied but leaning a lot on the stuff they were doing when i was buying their records (a long time ago, in a galaxy far away), will be a toss up between them and who ever is closing out the EA (likely to be the EA but may depend on alcohol levels)

    Lots of tickets on adverts and done deal and plenty at face value.

    Fair enough - was looking on toutless & #ticketfairy and not getting much joy - will pass on the good news :)

    The last time I saw them was when I done the daytrip to Oxegen, they were on the Vodafone stage and the crowd they had seemed pretty civilised whilst all the skangers were watching Eminem, so thank fcuk we don't have Eminem on the bill also. :)

    That doesn't say anything about EP and Its probably the DJ set and not the band.

    messing from the looks of it but that could be quite good fun messing.

    i like to stay away from that 3 area , id say if he was playing as faithless , ep would be plugging it alot more seeing as hes bigger than most acts there.. we shall see :)

    Aye, Faithless would be a headliner if playing, I cannot remember where the 3 area is, anyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭tonto123


    Not far away from the main arena, where alot of noise bleed goes on, across from casa Bacardi as well

    To the right to the main stage, theres a balcony there for "VIPs"

    Most likely this DJ play off will be timed to coincide with either the Massive Attack or Prodigy set, wouldn't be surprised anyway.

    Was this it or is it something else? If so...that explains a lot about it being a DJ “battle”

    Yes that's it, very disappointing to see faithless name linked with the festival and this all it to be :(

    have a couple of friends struggling to find tickets- hopefully that will change in the run up

    Keep an eye on adverts and toutless

    Oh how I wish he was playing with Faithless :(

    Dublin being in the All Ireland should help massively with this

    Good stuff indeed.

    I can see that there is lots of great stuff on the undercard, and that is definitely a good thing, but I have never been less excited for EP (after a bottle of wine with 16 days to go)

    Could not agree more - excited to get to the weekend however there is not a single act that i am really dying to see . There are a number that i will go based on some spotify finding or suchlike ,but for me ,and many travelling with me this is the worst "headline " and sub headline list in memory .

    I sense Waterford a coming down the tracks at speed

    ditto.... but for the good vibe we hear about,
    i thought the line up for ATN was very underwhelming,
    i appreciate its their first year and its a smaller affair but still

    i wonder what they have in store next year
