Finally got out of work stuff that orevented me keeping up to date. As a non camper the BYOB issue is not that big a deal for me but putting SD and OV (will always be OV to me) in main arena risks losing the vibe from them which was quite different to the main arena. I know it makes it easier with no security checks but i would gladly have them back.
The whole freetown thing is a joke (not my kind of music so cant comment on that) in the way it has been handled. Bigged up only to be acts already announced with only a week to go.
ATNs decision to announce 2020 this week looking like a good decision.

I will still have a great weekend as the music line up is still fantastic and for me personally better than anything else on offer in Ireland. However it will be interesting to see what effect the changes will bring (may surprise us)

PS whats the story with the late night boundary, will there be fences where there were none before.

PPS this time next week����

Well that's that then Salty Dog is no longer free flow. I for one will miss starting with cans there or Other Voices, but as long as the bars in Freetown/Salty Dog are big enough that they dont get swamped I'll get over it. It'll still be a great spot or after hours cans and the not having to queue between places might be a decent trade off. As people have said earlier the biggest loss will be felt in Trenchtown, don't think they have a bar there on the map?

More of a money thing for many people. Festivals can be as cheap or expensive as you want/need them to be (I spent €45 at Body & Soul this year because of their free flow policy) - now it's just 'get pissed in the campsite or spend a fortune on pints'

Obviously no one HAS to get pissed but lots of people like to

I know I'll have a ball either way, just ****ey of them.

Oh I know well, straight into the bra!! In the unlikely event a pat down feels something 'eh yeah, chicken fillets!'. Very handy!

for saving money, get a few of these, fill up with spirits before going down to EP (I fill 3, one for each night).
Stick it down your jocks going through security, then get a pint in the arena, drink, keep the cup, use for spirits, with soft drink mixers from the food vendors.

I've been known to bring a 500ml water bottle into Primavera with no screwtop in plain sight. Never gets stopped and an easy rum n Coke or five later on.

I know this isn't @ me but given 5 days of the week I'm in slacks and blouses you best believe I'm going ham at EP and wearing a load of mad ****. Now at least tell us you're bringing a good deodorant!!
