My weekend is looking like this at the moment, some load of overlaps though

Friday
Seamus Fogarty
The Brummies
Kendrick possibly
Otherkin

Saturday
Gomez
Sigrid
Friendly fires
Wolf Alice
Hopefully bomb out to These Charming Men
The Minutes
NERD/Le Galaxie
Massive Attack

Sunday
Dublin Gospel Choir
Wyvern Lingo
Garbage
Chic
Possibly the end of Benjamin Clementine
Bitch Falcon
St Vincent
Sleaford Mods
RSAG

The Fontaines DC, Bitch Falcon,Colter Wall on Sunday and The Minutes and King Krule on Saturday are particularly annoying.

Bitch Falcon also play late on the Body and Soul stage on Friday I think, so don't bother seeing them in the arena. Go see Colter Wall, who knows when he'll be back. Fontaines DC are only down the road.

Green car park, paintball entrance

Captain Flaps · 29-08-2018 10:25PM

Tesco are doing Grolsch (yay!), Carling (eww) and Canadian (meh) 24 for 24. Grolsch is the best bang for buck at 5%

Im really hoping the shuttle bus from Portlaoise Train Station stops at the Green Car Park so i can get to pink moon quicker then having to walk all the way through Hendrix

Seriously though, be careful at the bars.
Too many stories of folks being short changed in recent years,

I know I'd be in no state to read the screen to see how much I'm tapping to pay after about 8 pm on each day,

Furious-Red · 29-08-2018 10:31PM

Actually quick question with Pink Moon , ive a 4 person tent booked did i have to give the names of the other people that will be in the tent? Its booked under my name but i will prob arrive before the other 2 so can just tell them they are booked under my name?

Cannot remember about other names but you need to have the confirmation e-mail with the barcode so they can scan it. I'll just have it on my phone cos no printer.

Bring your confirmation email from pink moon.. The 2 arriving after you will also need this.. So give them a printed copy or send them the email verification.

Rigor Mortis · 29-08-2018 10:45PM

The thread trundles on pass the 10k mark. Just like EP, Boards are determined to up the capacity.
Got the tent out and aired today. Starting to charge the power blocks. Tomorrow will be spent pre mixing cocktails. Two more sleeps

Waste of time without pneumatic tyres. You will end up dragging that thing

1 sleep for me.. Expect to be checked in by 8pm tomorrow evening...
