    My friend bought three family tickets off someone on toutless. Said that we'll just get put into the regualar campsite when they realize we're not a family and have no kids with us. Does anyone know because looking up online though I can't see anything about this being the case?

    I had to sell my family tickets last year and I Facebook messaged EP page and they confirmed the tickets could be used for general camping. May have changed from last year so email them to check.

    Hi everyone, should I really be worrying if I haven’t gotten my ticket yet??

    Behold!!! You shall hopefully be resting your arses on these magnificent feats of carefully crafted benches in 7 days time. Made from the finest timber Chadwicks provide to provide you with well deserved comfort.
    I made them with offcuts left around the house to be honest.

    I'd be making a hidden compartment and fill with cans!!!:cool:

    Does anyone know if it's too late to get an early entry ticket for pink moon?

    Did I see a post earlier about an actual tattoo parlour in trailer pk? Might have been a Instagram post posted here

    Forget Kendrick Lamar or the Prodigy, what I really cant wait for is to see drunken teenagers having their skin permanently altered with the names of girlfriends/boyfriends who they will no longer speak to in 6 months' time.

    There’s a Nile Rodgers documentary just after starting on BBC4 for anyone interested.

    Not worried but you should have your ticket. They will most likely cancel original order and have new tickets handed over to the original purchaser

    The more I listen to The Orielles the more they shoot to the top of my list. Great album great singles. Hope they are on early Sat or Sun in EA. But if they clash with a big name I've seen before, I'll defo go see them. Fantastic indie/pop I suppose you'd call it. Love it

    Wow that would be nuts ...but if we had to choose a tattoo maybe this would be a shout. If not. I wanna go home don't want to stay.... give up education as a bad mistake.

    Jungle are class but they've basically been touring the same one album for the last four or five years.

    They've released 3 or 4 new songs in the last couple months so hopefully that means the set will have changed a bit

    Real pity the new album will be released ten days or so after EP.

    Prefer to get acclimatized to a record first before hearing it live.

    This time next week, we'll be starting to wake up, half drunk, half hungover... Struggling through downtown Beirut to the showers, grab a schmeary greasy breakfast on the way back, wash it down with the coldest can of the day and start planning the glorious middle day of EP.

    Ladies and gents, it's officially the final furlong! Can I get a whoop whoop?!

    It really can't come soon enough. Shortest itinerary ever this year for me, but it just means I get to wander and explore even more. A lot of stuff has popped up in the woods etc in recent years that I haven't got round to yet.

    Want to spend more time in trailer park, trenchtown and salty dog. Drinking my own cans in the latter 2 as well should help keep the spend down.

    Flew back from holidays on Thursday and not been able to stop listening to Five Grand Stereo.

    Gone straight onto my must see list.

    Friday night - Salty Dog 9.40

    Met Eireann say it’s looking like settled and warmer weather from Thursday onwards. They’re definitely the most reliable source so I’m quietly confident

    I'm still waiting for the farmers forecast before I absolutely call it.

    Feck... probably clashing with Kendrick (and I'm guessing Ben Clementine). Sex and Money is a class album. Decisions, decisions...

    This is from a post in the Weather Forum:

    "FRIDAY (31st) ... Sunny, with increasing cloud leading to isolated late afternoon or evening showers mostly for northwestern counties, lows near 8 C and highs 19 to 22 C.

    The weekend of 1-2 September is now looking improved, the rather unsettled weather for Saturday may be confined largely to Ulster, and then generally sunny by Sunday, with more rain possible in the north but with the possibility of the warmer and dry spell continuing in the south, highs 17 C north to 23 C south. Some guidance delays this warm and dry interval to the early part of the following week so there is some uncertainty involved."

    Looks very promising.

    Do you think Benjamine Clementine will headline the EA on Friday? Only started listening to him in the last two weeks but he is very good.

    MT Cranium on the weather forum is the only man I will trust for a weather forecast for EP. If you think the average Irish person talks about the weather a lot I put them to shame in the week leading up to picnic.

    With this year's lineup, I wouldn't be surprised if the Coronas or the like might headline EA but my money would be on him playing a slot between 8 - 10.30
