    50euro for two days of music etc isn't bad as i'm not going to ATN or B & S.

    Its great value. Usually a good lineup too. Its a pity it clashes with ATN.

    Ended up buying yesterday just in case the deal expired.

    It's still there today.

    Hoping for an announcement to keep the weekend full of things to listen to.

    me too. Haven't been before but regretted not going last year.
    When/how do you buy the kid tickets? Wasn't an option when I bought them.

    They said on insta that they will sell these at a later date.

    I wish to feck they'd hurry up and announce as I want to know the pool of acts left available for the Picnic announcement and the further additions to B&S and ATN as well.

    All these social media 'are you ready?' 'ready? ' posts are dragging out a bit.

    I like the posts with music announcements better ;)

    OK here's the theory, currently 2 for 1 sale finishes Sunday.

    Perhaps they have a great sell out announcement which they'll make Monday where people will only be able to buy full price tickets.

    Maximise profits.

    If there's no announcement tonight I reckon this is the plan. Maybe :)

    Any announcements for this yet?

    Nada

    Just bought tickets too on the basis that even if the line up isn't great it's still great value. And it's down the road from me.

    Any guesses about who might show up on this, Forbidden Fruit already has some crackers and Beatyard last year had probably one of the best lineups of the summer, I would have done this if the All Together Now volunteering thing had fell through.

    If you look at wilderness and beat herder festival they share alot of acts year on year. May give you an idea.

    My guess for Big dance act is Groove armada live/basement jaxx dj set

    Well the ship has sailed on the 2 for 1. Now to see who they announce :)

    So Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,214 ✭✭✭bullpost

    More likely Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,412 ✭✭✭✭bodhrandude


    It wouldn't surprise me that Beatyard has the pulling power to grab Groove Armada from EP, they are the archetypal Sunday closing act that would be perfect for the event.

    They are playing Glasgow on Friday 2nd August, so active and just across the water, a likely candidate.

    Certainly fits in with previous bookings. If they are announced they are a headliner similar to Air/orbital.

    Any theories on what non dance act could head the other day?

    Maybe the Strokes?

    Shame they're not nearly as good as either of those 2 acts. Orbital are one of the seminal electronic groups really, GA are cloggers in comparison.

    It's not set in stone, I just think because of bands touring I reckon it will be either Groove armada or basement jaxx to head.

    Remember in 2016 or 17 Mark ronson dj set was the headline.

    While I would love Strokes they are far too big budget wise and also have some sort of deal where they play over two days with both of juilians bands, the voids and the Strokes.

    I don't think Beatyard would do a double helping of Julian casablancas

    I'm thinking more like Tom Jones or Robyn.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,791 ✭✭✭sweetie


    I'd take the specials, chakha Khan, gogo penguin and groove armada

    Would love to see Cut Copy or Jurassic 5 on the line-up,

    Maybe Echo & The Bunnymen as well but not sure if they fit the style of musicians they typically booked.
