Electric Picnic

[quote=“Thrawneen”]Couldn’t be! No way they’d use something that cringe inducing, surely?
I remember that thread on AFR, wasn’t it someone saying that that was what their mate who was at it texted them?[/QUOTE]

It was either that or someone talking about artfoley doing heroin at it or something like that

Mundy. :clap::rolleyes:

Rodrigo y Gabriela, Basement Jaxx, Flaming Lips and Fionn Regan (possibly) can feel aggrieved at not being a highlight on CM’s list.

Mundy should be tied to the back of NCC’s bike.

if i was going this’d be my list

2 many djs have gone off the boil the last few times I’ve seen them at the picnic

Anybody heading down to this? Looking forward to Brian Wilson on Saturday big time. It looks like the sun will be shining nicely for him too.

MBB: myself and Chocolate Mice plan to knock in and say hello by taking a dump in your front garden :smiley:

I heard that only 14,000 people have signed up to live, not exist this weekend.

I heard it was nearing 30,000 out of 32,500 which I’d say could be correct. It has not being heavily advertised in comparison to other festivals so I reckon ticket sales went ok. It is a very popular festival every year for people who just can’t face the Oxegen mess.

Any of you fellas driving this weekend? If so yer fairly fucked, serious parking issues due to the bad weather and lack of available fields. Serious scrambling being done to get replacement fields I hear. Yer always welcome folks, we’ll fire a few of ye into the slatted sheds, for the right price.

:D:pint::pint::barcasmile:

:smiley: Replacement fields

:thumbsup::clap::stuck_out_tongue:

Anyone heading this year?

Judging by the amount of promotion they are doing at the moment I’d imagine they don’t have a whole pile of tickets shifted.

It’d be good to see The Frames back together. A few other good bands but wrong time of year for a festival like it.

How much are the tickets to that?

Something ridiculous isn’t it?

€240 notes.

:o

The price is madness when you think of the timing, end of summer, colleges starting back etc. It’ll be full of hippies anyway.

The barleys cut early this year, so ye shower of hippie cunts can come on in and do what ye like.

240 notes is a lot if it’s the music that’s the attraction. Arguably only two of the headliners are at the top of their game (Mumford and LCD). and they wouldn’t be to everyone taste. It’s a decade and a half since leftfield and Massive Attack were at the peak of their powers. Pil are on the slide since 1980 and Roxy Music produced their best work in 1975.

When you think you could get 10 times the line up in Glastonbury for the same money…
