100%, the first 2 albums are superb but a few of my favourite Strokes songs come from First Impressions.. and Angles.
First saw the Strokes live at first oxegen in 2004...in the many gigs I have been to since that night, very few have come close to the electricity in the crowd and in performance. I cannot wait to see them at EP!
I remember when they played Oxegen 06 (my first Oxegen) and they were one of the bands i was dying to see. Sadly 17 year old me couldnt handle festivals at that stage so on the Sat i went home early, but i remember walking out one of the exits that were behind the Main Stage they walked on stage and i was devastated
. However caught them at Oxegen 2011 and they were fantastic 0 -

Love the camping experience, Thursday night is a different night to the other 3, have always gone in on Thursday, always had good crack, first time in Pink Moon though. I can go to a hotel anytime. All part of my overall EP experience.
Honestly cannot recommend heading in on the Thursday enough. In 2017 there was pretty much nothing on except the carnival in Hendrix, and a few food places open. Think there was comedy on somewhere too. Last year, there were DJs in Salty Dog, all female comedy line up, carnival in Hendrix and loads of food places open.
Best craic ever. Great for getting a decent set up going if camping in general, never been in Pink Moon though apart from sneaking in with mates in 2016

Pink moon is well worth it, anyone I know who bought it once, ended up buying it every year after, myself included.
Would never go back to slumming it in the normal campsites
don't how I ever done it to be honest, once I got n experience of Pink Moon that was it, even taking it a step further this year and have a podpad with all the extras ( pillows, blankets etc.) will make all the difference for me, if I dont get a decent sleep I am normally f**ked for the next day 0 -

The last few years at picnic and B&S we've been in eco camping, in our own tent with an airbed, duvet and pillows, suits us down to the ground and the price is right.0 -

Was in ECO too but at the opposite end to the rave in the woods, had ear plugs and didn't hear a thing! Its amazing with so many sources how short some sounds travel! Its like a tug of war!
Early entry is a great idea, Glastonbury opens on Tuesday but the main acts start on Friday! I guess it eases traffic congestion, giving punters Tue, Wed, Thur and early Friday to make their way in! No extra cost But its x6 nights in a tent, horrific!
Had considered it at EP but not disciplined enough
I'll end up going full gas Thursday night! ****ed by Sat! But Id consider though if b&s was accessible! In fact that would be sweet!! A real chance to explore before things kick off. 0 -

Never having had the following take up headline slots has been a huge relief to me - Foo Fighters
I fookin love FF and have my ticket for them the week before EP, honestly not too sure which I'm more excited about cos I've never seen them before.
But that aside in terms of the question, frankly pretty much every major dance act that's ever graced the stage "live", i get it that it's probably amazeballs if you're tanked out of your gourd or settling into a nice geosynchronous orbit initiated via chemical rocket but jesus, they're just so ****ing dull outside of the light shows. Think the best decision I ever made was to go catch super furry animals over Chemical Bros a few years ago (and I've bought CB albums in the past).
Second best decision was skipping out of FloJo and her two stroke to go to Tame Impala, hoping there's someone similarly fantastic on at the same time to her again this year (ideally..... Tame ****ing Impala).0 -

Generally agree with that bar the odd exception. Maybe it was just the comedown from The Cure's epic set in 2012 but Orbital afterwards were stunning. Otherwise most of the dance sets blur into each other.0 -
