    I reckon Strokes for headline slot 10:30 on Friday with James Blake at midnight... maybe Four Tet for Saturday

    Róisín Murphy for midnight on Sunday? or headline 10:30 slot?

    That along with Natasha's in Body and Soul. Great place to shelter from the rain

    It's a pity Natasha is an absolute wagon who treats her staff really poorly in front of punters. Every time I've been to her stand (the van) and she's been present she's barking at them, speaking to them like they're idiots and she's not much better to customers. I wouldn't normally speak poorly of a small Irish business, especially one serving veggie and vegan food, but I just steer clear of anything with the branding now.

    the FB banter page says Terminus stage is cancelled!
    someone was electrocuted (survived) during a soundcheck due to leak in the electrics
    anyone else hear that?

    What is EP's fascination with the 2 Johnnies about? A stand alone announcement about a stage time for them on twitter.
    At least I know to avoid Terminus at 5 on Saturday

    Ya it's bizarre. Was thinking about this this morning and all I can assume is that whoever is doing the EP Social work is a mate of their's.

    Think it's a (not very funny) joke, sure the 2 Johnny fellas were only announced for it an hour ago

    Looking at who is left for the EA and Cosby tents, Four Tet and Richie Hawtin both down for the Saturday on their sites/resident advisors, would they be the two closing acts for the EA? Or maybe one of them headlining the Cosby tent. Surely acts like them would need to be on at night time. James Blake is down for Friday so he will prob headline EA that night.

    Hahaha wow thank you :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    I have done EP for many years, I think the year at pete tong was the worst I put down!

    I will hold out hope for a miracle :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,058 ✭✭✭Stillill42


    Did we not agree that we're all happier in the rain? It's a win-win, people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,860 ✭✭✭fafy


    there are probably hundreds of accounts that have 3+ picnics who do not go anymore. I would like to think that this registration is to ensure that the allocated loyalty tickets find their way into the hands of people who want them and not in some dormant account that will not use the code.

    Stop fretting.

    I agree, Looks like an okay system on this, Just get registered for the loyalty scheme, if you don’t, you won’t get offered a loyalty presale code, don’t make the mistake i made- eg. not registering in advance, of this years picnic. Was too used to getting the loyalty emails automatically, and failed to notice that registration is a prerequisite.

    I'd love a couple of 3 or more codes if anyone has any they won't be using.

    I've been to the last two EPs but never received a code last year even after I emailed them and requested one. Might be the same this time too.

    Loading 5 days work into 3 so I can have an unproductive day Thursday and head off early for Thursday night at the Salty Dog! 3 Sleeps!!

    Don't have a pair of wellies feel like its to late now unless I want blisters any suggestions for keeping your feet dry?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,814 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Some of the stage times EP have put up seem to have been changed, The Academic tweeted they are now on at 7.40pm instead of 8.40pm (not sure what this means for the lads on before them), and The 2 Johnnies said that they are playing Terminus instead of Trailer Park so won't be playing that slot anymore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,058 ✭✭✭Stillill42


    Can we assume that the Lou Reed 'Transformer' thing will be on during that gap between Khartoum and Otherkin on the Salty Dog on the Friday night?

    Isn't the all Star thing the last act of the night in Salty Dog on the Friday? Usually kicks off around 2am or so?

    One question on the Loyalty Scheme

    Has anybody received an email to say that their registration has been received. I filled up the form on the loyalty scheme page but have not got a confirmation of registration email

    What are the 2 times KKK are playing ?

    I did likewise. I didn't get an email, but the "reply" page said "Thank you" for the submission and that I would get a code on 6th September if I qualified.

    Don't expect an email though.

    No, i did it this morning, its confirmed onscreen only. I double checked my “past events” on my TM orders, and i qualify for 3 or more picnics. I also emailed TM, and they said he reason i did not get the offer last year is because i did not register - which is totally correct, it went over my head. They said, assuming what i am telling them is correct i should receive a loyalty code.
