    Has anyone bought a second hand ticket for this yet? I am assuming if it had of got cancelled (or is cancelled later) and was an online ticket the money just went back to the seller so a difficult one. Ticketmaster transfer maybe the way to go but I am guessing limits your chances of getting one.

    What a beautiful day on the thread. Possible obstacles notwithstanding, it does the heart good to hear BD giving out about the possibility of Aphex Twin being put on the main stage because it wouldn't suit his light show. Just looking at a site map has actual medical benefits, I believe.

    It's great to look at the map and see all the changes.
    Karavan-aoke and ceili (the haunt i hope), my lovely ranch, trailer park all making a return. Jerry fish moved into the woods should be good.

    The excitement !!!!!!!

    Its nice hearing people give out about awful Irish pop acts, luckily there will be many many other options to see different acts. I'm keeping expectations low to be honest, wont get proper excited until/if the licence gets granted. I can see a decision coming fairly quickly though, time is a factor here. Lots of local radio ranting to come ahead no doubt.

    If it goes ahead I think we'll have ALL the local indie & folk bands that we've been extolling here for the past few years. Few would be close to headlining (Fontaines easily could) but we'll have no shortage of decent stuff to see.

    It does look a bit like that. If they were confident enough that a 3 week delay will mean it goes ahead, then they'd release a line up (which they may do over the next few weeks).

    They may also not want to release a line up until the deadline for seeking refunds (assume there will be one, the email didn't specify a date) has been passed if the line up is looking like its a bit weak.

    In all this excitement, we may have lost sight of a very important question....


    ... What is the best route to use to get to the Yellow Carpark? ;)

    There's a new Premium camping on the other side of the road, and a new Gate 1 that seems to give access straight into the Terminus area.
    No extra showers, apart from the normal ones, and there appears to be a shower block in the Premium camping; probably inaccessible to us plebs. A long walk from Eco to my shower again, then.

    I'll fire a couple of buckets of water round you in Eco, mate. Just you stand there and clench.

    I downloaded it and opened it in Acrobat Reader. Its a bit of a pain with all the layers as it takes ages to load properly.

    Wouldn't be surprised if The Haunt showed up in the Fish area, Jerry was in there half the time when not in his own tent.

    I guess they're hardly going to the trouble of announcing new dates if they don't expect it to go ahead?

    Personally I wouldn't want or expect any money back I paid. Musicians (especially small ones) and staff have suffered disproportionately through this mess. I'd be happy for them to get an extra few quid that would normally fund international headliners.

    Frankly, i may be more emotional than normal if this goes ahead.

    This pandemic has me ****ed on a mental level and the idea of complaining about line ups, drinking warm flat cans and freezing my nuts of has me sounds like heaven.
