    A couple of days ago it was on their site that early bird day tickets would be €69.50, regular price €79.50. But yesterday they took it down so it looks like they're hoping to shift the weekend tickets during the early bird. I'd be fairly certain that the day tickets will go on sale at some point.

    Considering the links to the original festival and the fact they are in Europe, RHCP could be an option for this also

    Not on the same night as FNM, anyway! Keidis and Patton have a longstanding 'thing' :p

    Maybe the main stage will be where the 2nd stage was at Oxegen? They might use the indoor shed (that was used for the dance arena) for the 2nd stage and maybe a tent for the 3rd stage?

    Got ahead of myself and thought early bird was today. Hoping for another few additions of interest. From this post, I'd love to see BABYMETAL, Mastodon, and Offspring make the journey over.

    Also to bump up my own interest I'd really like to see Billy Talent (Academy show was great), A Day to Remember (never seen), and Fever 333 (saw .letlive and the frontman is great live; they're doing dates in Germany in August but otherwise no plans).

    I wish it was a one dayer though.

    That was one of the deadly things about the previous sunstrokes.

    Party after, home in your own bed in the morning, with a very hazey recollection of the night before.

    FNM announced their own gigs in Glasgow , Manchester and London. Might consider going over rather than going to Sunstroke to see them.

    The line-up isn't that appealing to me outside the two headliners.

    Bought tickets, no camping though. Here's hoping there's decent bus services.

    So, it turns out that you have to buy a weekend camping ticket and a separate campervan ticket. The weekend camping ticket is €170...and the campervan ticket is another €80...!? WTF?! Campervan owners clean up after themselves and don't leave tents and ****e behind. Ridiculous pricing.

    I will say that The Scratch are possibly the best live band in the country.
