    Was at this all weekend and had a ball.
    Friday:
    Carl Craig - was pretty good, got in just as he played his remix of Caribou and it was a nice way to ease into the weekend, he took it up a few notches though and was playing some really good house/techno. Best track he played was the new Chemical Brothers one. Wouldnt have killed him to smile once in a while though
    Todd Terje - was really good but the sound wasnt great, I was to the right of the stage and a good bit back. Could only really hear the bass and not really the synths, Inspector Norse was great though
    Hozier - watched the first half of the show, saw him last year and he was brilliant but thats coz he was on at 3 in the day. Dont think he's headline material. He brought out some bird and they started singing ballads, might have been good in Vicar St or the Olympia but not mainstage at a festival.
    SBTRKT - headed into see these instead of the end of Hozier and really enjoyed them

    Saturday:
    Jungle: thought they were really good. Will have a look for their album on the back of their performance
    Caribou: was at the side of the stage for them over by the Desperados bar so couldnt really pass judgement but sounded pretty good.
    Hudson Mohawke: Was really excited about seeing him and he didnt disappoint. Loved pretty much all of his set, love that trap/thizz stuff he does. Agree though that the hardstyle he dropped towards the end was sh!te

    Sunday:
    Mumdance: really enjoyed his set although when he was playing all that grime the youngsters who had been dancing since Friday afternoon to house didnt know what to make of it :D Was great to hear some of his own stuff live
    Caught the very end of Danny Brown, well just his dj. Thought he didnt show up or something but the 5/10 mins I saw of him was brilliant.
    Chemical Brothers: Was waiting all weekend to see these, actually Ive been waiting about 6 years to see them and they lived up to the hype (the hype I had been dishing out to my girlfriend). The lightshow really takes your breath away, have seen them about 6/7 times and they get better each time. Highlight for me was the new edit of Elektrobank with that goblin looking guy on the phone. I just stood there open mouthed for the whole thing. Unreal. Galvanize was some way to end the show too, absolutely banging version of it. Amazing end to a great weekend.

    Also I my girlfriend drove so I was in bed at half 11 :P

    Weirdly similar music choices!

    Danny Brown mustve been on stage for 30 minutes max?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,539 ✭✭✭ghostdancer


    yeah about that, fairly rattles through the songs during that time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,509 ✭✭✭BadTurtle


    The DJ was fun like but I still felt a bit short changed.

    I know this is a bit of a random request and a long shot, but does anyone still have their ticket stub for this? Ideally the Saturday but will take any! I like to collect the stubs of gigs I go to, but ticketmaster never sent my ticket out and had to print off the version last minute.

    They took our tickets off us when we were going through and threw them in the bin, assume it was the same for everyone.

    Yeah, there's a recycle bin with 30,000 tickets in it somewhere.

    You can email festival Republic and they might post you out one

    There was a scam going when I was in Poland at the Euros where guys would stand outside the grounds after the game and ask for peoples stubs. This was so they could cut out the hologram and use it on counterfeit tickets
