Must try for a day ticket for mark lanegan, hopefully Ash be on same day.

Limerick91 · 10-03-2015 2:42pm

I'm sure The Coronas will be "surprise guests" again

Fuzzy_Dunlop · 10-03-2015 2:52pm

That's a very decent line up actually. Fan of Admiral Fallow and Jape.

Not bad, nothing I'm hell bent on making the trip for though. It was a bit of a teen fest last year, so I think I'll avoid this year.

Over 18s this year I believe

Really was hoping to campervan this year but with no electric hook up don't think I will...

I asked em about a portable genie and they said no. I still got a camper ticket though. Should be a good laugh.

Munstermad · 09-04-2015 12:59pm

Definately still going, great like up, but would have loved to hire campervan for comfort....
Ah well back to tents and portaloos

:eek::D:eek::D

srm23 · 16-05-2015 12:18am

anyone been to this before? how was it
is there showers and stuff like EP for the campsite?

MattD · 10-06-2015 8:18am

It appears this is the final lineup anyway, Hermitage Green and Roisin O were just added there a couple of days ago.

Honestly I find it pretty disappointing really. I managed to get VIP tickets from a sponsor so I don't mind that much really, and I know that it is a really good little festival. But This year does just seem like a downgrade from other years. It reeks of the entire budget being blown on Basement Jaxx (which will be fantastic no doubt though.)

Any other recommendations there? Will be looking forward to Ash, All Tvvins, RSAG, Wyvern Lingo and Mark Lanegan otherwise.

alia1804 · 10-06-2015 3:29pm

Hey Guys, just posting up that I have an indiependence 3 day camping ticket going for 90 euro if anybody is interested ^.^

Munstermad · 10-06-2015 4:32pm

Another act being announced tomorrow.. Fingers crossed!!
So many to wish for!!!!:):):):)

Smic16 · 10-06-2015 9:20pm

Anyone know if it's possible to get a bus back from the festival on the Sunday night to cork city?

Jack Savoretti.

They could have announced Beanbag O'Brien and I doubt the reaction would be any different.

Queen-Mise · 23-06-2015 11:20am

Bought tickets for it. Hopefully it will be good.

Meathlass · 14-07-2015 8:52am

Just looking at the FAQs on bringing alcohol to this. They say you can bring in 24 cans or a bottle of spirits (but not both). I presume there's nothing stopping you going back out to your car on the saturday and sunday and bringing in more alcohol. How are they going to know what you brought in previously?

zenarcadian · 14-07-2015 11:43am

'Tis looking well, in fairness. Nice amount of Irish talent up and down the announcements.

Not clear on the website, says once inside no extra allowances made, but this is a bit vague. Last year could have spirit and cans, and could go back to your car and bring in more as much as you wanted? Time for to put the thinking caps on... or should I say vodka caps...LOL

Deranged96 · 15-07-2015 9:16am

It's a litre of spirits or a slab this year??

Ah now

In saying that though the bag searches last year were very superficial, I had extra liquor at the bottom of the bag and the security guy came nowhere near it.

Meathlass · 15-07-2015 9:43am

Well, I've never been before but there's plenty of warnings on the website about stringent security searches and no under 18s allowed this year.

They actually said a 'bottle' of spirits so I don't know if I can fill my 2lt plastic water bottle up with vodka and get away with it. :-)

Will just bring extra in the car anyway.

Useful.Idiot · 17-07-2015 1:24pm

will the Bacardi stage be there this year?

Looks like its called the garden this year. Looking forward to Fish go deep.

Hopefully the rain will keep off.

Casshern88 · 26-07-2015 7:06pm

They say that every year about the drink restrictions and I've been to multiple other festivals that say similar (slab or 1 bottle spirits) . I think it's just a thing they have to say for insurance reasons or something. I always have considerably more than the said limits and never had an issue.

Probably means that you have to take the booze in on the first trip, so that when you are wristbanded they will stop you taking in further booze thats what they mean with 'no extra allowances.'

Irish_rat · 26-07-2015 8:03pm

The lineup is fairly brutal compared to 2/3 years ago.

thunderdog · 26-07-2015 8:37pm

Can anyone recommend any decent bands to check out on the sat and sun apart from the headline acts?

hooked96 · 27-07-2015 12:09am

Anyone know if it'll be difficult to bring a deflated/inflated small rubber dingy past sequrity into one of the stage audiences?

I can't imagine there would be a problem unless someone has been battered to death with a rubber dingy before. :pac:

You might need the dingy to negotiate your way around the festival if this bloody weather doesn't improve! :eek:

Anyone driving back to Galway city from this on the Monday morning with space for 2? will chip in for fuel!

Hi there,
I have a day ticket and my friends have camping all weekend tickets.
Anyone know could I stay in their tent that 1 night or would i have trouble getting into the campsite without a camping armband (I presume it's an armband system)
It's my first time at Indiependence

They check wristbands getting back into the campsite. We managed to sneak 2 wans from Galway into the campsite last year but it was the Sunday night when security were at the end of their tether. If you don't get in you could find yourself fierce stuck.

Get a friend who has a loose wristband, do the plastic bag trick to slip it off and get someone to bring it out to you so you can get in just for the night.

All I got was kids putting pencils through plastic bags full of water without spilling a drop

Your mates might be able to distract the security lads with that clever little trick while you sneak in behind them

coolieo5000 · 29-07-2015 1:46pm

Standard last minute searching for tickets.... But anyone have one spare?

My buddy has a campervan ticket but never actually got a ticket and now they are gone. He's my accommodation for the weekend!

Would greatly appreciate it if anyone has one to spare that doesn't feel like ripping me off!

There is a promise of lovely cans in return!

Knex* · 29-07-2015 7:18pm

Anyone have a google map link for Deer Park, by any chance?

Edit: Its cool, I have it. Its here, by the Firgrove Hotel, if anyone else is looking.

I thought there was still tier 4 (or whatever the final, dearest tier is called?) Didn't think it was completely sold out yet?

Looking for a Friday ticket myself if anyone knows of where I could get a cheap one? PM if you do (sorry mod if I'm breaking the rules here)

Last minute decision. Wasn't going to bother this year, but I've been to every single one so far so don't wanna break the cycle. Probably going to be a mudbath but most of my friends are going and it's not every day Basement Jaxx play 20miles down the road from my house.

Feck it, be better than staying home watching the Late Late Show with Ryan Tubridy and his toothbrush-shaped head!!

To be honest, I've no other reason to be there except for them and fish go deep (possibly 80's v 90's). The late late is finished for the summer btw :pac:

Smic16 · 29-07-2015 11:40pm

Heading Sunday night but bus eireann are not running buses back that night to cork. Anyone know of any means to get back to cork city?or any free accomodation. All seem booked

threein99 · 31-07-2015 11:55am

Weather looking dodgy for this, would still like to there, great lineup for the cost

Casshern88 · 31-07-2015 12:06pm

Anyone on site. What's it looking like ground wise? They letting people through into campsite yet.
