    If you get a Pit Pass for this can you leave the the gig site and then come back in again?

    What time would you have to be at Marlay Park to get a pit pass?

    I usually aim to be at a gig at least an hour and a half before gates open.

    Had a look at some of the AF set lists for previous gigs. Surprisingly little from Reflektor.

    If I got there at 2, do you think I could get one?

    I want to be in the pit but I really don't know if I'm bothered being there for Ham Sandwich :(

    Not much Neon Bible on that setlist but I love all the albums so don't mind too much

    Pixies setlist from a gig in Croatia the other day ...

    Don't think they'll have a full set like that gig unfortunately since there not headlining, I'd say it will be more a truncated festival set.

    Looks like they haven't played Gigantic live on this tour at all, must have retired the song with Kim leaving!

    Seems that way but looks like they do play River Euphrates :D

    Staying in on sandyford road and have a few questions.
    Were is the best place to go for a few swift ones before marley park from the hours of 2-4:30? a nice beer garden would do the finest.

    The eden pub would be your best bet only few mins walk to marlay park. If its too busy there the coach house or ballinteer house are close by also

    A bit off topic, but did anyone manage to get the £2.50 tickets for the Hyde Park gig today?! :D

    A friend of mine got the £2.50 tickets for Black Sabbath, he is gonna be smug now seeing I paid full price.

    What's the best way to get out to Marlay Park for this, bus or luas? Haven't been to a large capacity gig there in a long time so I don't know what would be best, especially when it comes to getting home after as well.

    Anybody have any idea of the site map? Will the main stage be in a similar position as Longitude last year or will it be at a right angle to that against the trees?
