    Any predications for tomorrow?


    I'll see the lineup, get stupidly excited, contact all my friends, get ignored by all my friends, end up not going, get really sad about missing out, then say "I never fancied that festival anyway". :(

    Fingers Crossed its Band of Horses, the Olympia show was excellent.

    Day tickets €54.5 plus booking fee of €6.10 if purchased online
    weekend tickets €99.50 plus booking fee of €6.10 if purchased online
    No sign of early bird tickets being made available either, they will need a strong lineup to justify these prices

    Hopefully the line-up will be more daring than Longitude, but more than likely will have a similar feel of radio friendly Indie bands. Saying that the Sunday line-up of Kraftwerk, Modest Mouse and Yeah Yeah Yeahs warrants a day ticket at Longitude IMO.

    Then the timetable is released and they all end up clashing with each other.

    heard the Kasabian rumour alright, hoping it's not true.

    Pull in a crowd i agree, but do they fit the usually style of forbidden fruit - dont mean that in a stuck up way just think it would be a strange booking.

    In saying that, Kasabian are epic live so i'd be delighted if they headlined.

    Any chance somebody could paste this tweet into a post here.. Twitter is blocked at work here..

    very average. awful headliners.
    Four Tet live and Daphni on the Sunday would be good. Chic are supposed to be great fun too but not a big draw for me.

    Saturday- James Blake would be good if in a tent. Crystal Castles are grand but I've gotten pretty bored of them.


    unless the further announcements have much better acts for the Saturday, i'd probably only go for the Sunday, mainly because I've never seen Four Tet do a live set.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 171 ✭✭civilnug


    I thought between this and Longitude, Alt-J would pop up somewhere.

    EP exclusive perhaps?

    whats the story with early bird tickets for this, are they already gone or are they the tickets going on sale tomorrow


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzovision


    Really disappointed with this. Two awful headline acts. Very poor compared to the last two years. I'll go on the Sunday, just for FourTet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭JJ

    Early bird tickets go on sale tomorrow. I can't find any mention of when the early bird offer ends.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,096 ✭✭✭grudgehugger


    Feels like a big step backwards from last year although I'm still holding out hope for the aforementioned Hidden Agenda stage making Sunday an attractive option for electronic music. Four Tet and Daphni a good start - wonder if that's part of their stage???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,548 ✭✭✭✭fits


    Four tet live would be the only draw for me. But I can't go anyway. Longitude looks the better option.

    i'd be pretty sure that Cyril Hahn, Bondax, New Jackson and Fank B are part of whatever they're doing anyway...
