[Cancelled] Electric Picnic 2020 **Discussion Only // No Ticket Sales / Requests **

The lineup got a lot worse today. Apart from Foals (and the permanent fixture of the Chem Bros), that is very poor.

Wow....so poor, it's frightening (even more than types of love )

No Imagination (another Blondie reference)

I wonder can they actually come back from this dirge

Poorside is worse than I thought. Hang in there, buddy.

Increase in capacity and revenue and that’s what you get???, p*ss poor to say the least!!!!

Bar 5 to 10 acts that's not great at all

Not great at all for my music taste. Very unimaginative IMO. Like Snow Patrol FFS for a 70,000 person festival that's very poor. It is clear the market they are going after - the younger people and I can see why. But just doesn't fit me and that's grand. There's ATN and B&S for others.

Although Black Country New Road savage. Everyone should check them out who's going!!!

RATM - Chemicals (was blitzed last time so hope to see them semi-sober this time) - Bicep - Ian Brown - Run the Jewels - Foals - Jams Vincent McMarrow - Rick Astley (FTW!).

Interested in Annie Mac, Mabel, JPEGMAFIA.

Looking forward to learning about the undercards.

Jesus

Not too shabby. Two great headliners and a solid undercard. Could be much better but not complaining with what we have considering thisis just round 1.

100 gecs' first time in Ireland ever, v exciting.
JPEGMAFIA was unreal in the Academy last week.
Rina, Run the Jewels, Bicep.

It doesn't matter how many times you go through this process. All I can see is Snow Patrol, Lewis Capaldi and Picture This. I'll be ok. I need time.

If you can look past that there's some great acts on it, I had myself pre-convinced that there would be these (or much the same) all on it so the fact we have Foals, Denzel, Skepta, RATM, RTJ, BICEP, Little Simz and a few others I'm happy out, it's a fairly good mix too. In contrast to the headliners last year I really can't complain too much as I'd take RATM or The Chemical Brothers personally over any of those (The Strokes personally never did it for me past one or two songs). I can see if people aren't into hip hop there's a lot there people won't be happy about, but on the flip side it felt like we had about 5 hip hop acts on the bill last year with most being Irish apart from J Hus and one or two others I wasn't too impressed with.
