    If your tent has a porch store as many cans as you can under this, or else tucked under the tent all round. Almost as good as a fridge.

    Just buy heineken and/or orchard thieves and keep them in the onsite free cold room


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭Captain Flaps


    Attention Bebe have themselves down for 9.40 on Facebook but still missing from the clashfinder?

    Ditto if you have a campervan, stick the cans underneath it. They'll be well chilled.

    Alternatively, and I know this is revolutionary, use the fridge.

    Lads, two words for anyone with a free slot on early Sunday evening...

    The Blaze.

    I've been banging the drum about them since the first announcement (I'm not alone on that one tbf) and saw them at Primavera. Since, they've released a heap of new songs and it all just keeps getting better.

    For me, if there's one band to see this weekend, it's them.

    Does anyone else have one completely unmissable recommendation? Ideally, one that others may have missed or not yet come across yet?

    Also, if anyone is skipping Kendrick Lamar for whatever reason, the Bad Bones/Super Extra Bonus Party double header on Body & Soul will be brilliant.

    Thats my plan. Might try to catch a song from Kendrick in between those two, but otherwise it seems like the best spot for friday night

    I have tried several times to listen to Kendrick but he's just not my thing at all. I don't get it. Definitely heading for SEBP so I might check out Bad Bones too

    King Kong Company. Regulars to this thread and to EP will know them and have probably seen them at least once but for any newcomers, I'd highly recommend them. Just a good solid bit of craic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 414 ✭✭Peterd66


    Benjamin Clementine (though EA maybe too big ) and at the complety other end of the scale Jinx Lennon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 221 ✭✭GhostMutt30


    King Kong Company is Fridays must see, Wolf Alice Sat and agreed on The Blaze for Sunday

    I keep listening to them but don't get it. Stage show looks like a cut-rate Flaming Lips without the tunes so I'm off to see them tomorrow evening and hope to be proved wrong.

    Good luck to everybody heading off today. I'm very envious.

    Is there an actual offo on site I can go just buy a load of cold cans to save lumping them all the way there?

    As a buddy of mine once called them after I dragged him along for his first time:
    "The perfect festival fodder"

    The Murder Capital aren't on Spotify so they are a different act altogether.

    Fri - Seamus Fogarty (OVs)
    Sat - Slow Place Like Home (B&S main)
    Sun - Colter Wall or David Keenan

    Adam Beyer sounds like a pretty intense Friday night act don't think anyone's suggested him just yet.

    Anyone know where the apparent Berlin DJ bunker is?
