Just wondering are many goin to this festival?
The line up looks prity good. Its 150 euro for 2 days camping.
I guess its just a replacement for Cream Fields

I think I'm heading up but I'd say its gonna be full of knackers. Fecking trance EVERYWHERE but theres some decent acts so it should be a laugh.

id say its going to be lethal alright except for the amount of dodgy ****ers that will be there, id rather not camp u know urself the hassle everyone out of the head thinking all tentsmlook the same

wind00ze

ya these kind of places usually attract some of the wrong crowd but
im goin to go anyway, havnt been to a good dance festival in ages

tman

my flatmate and a load of her mates already have their tickets booked, so i guess i'll tag along.
definitely looking forward to seeing the 110th street boys play to a big crowd:)

Clum

Everybody's saying it'll be all knacks at it but judging by the numbers who are saying this and are going, there'll be no room left for the dodgey folk...unless those people who are saying it'll be all knackers are indeed scumbags themselves...

I'd say it'll be alright. Dance and rave have big connections to scumbags from back in the 90s but it's a different scene now. There's still plenty of clubbers who love a good party without wanting to cause trouble.

Chucky the tree

^ unfortuanlty not. This will still be riddled with scum. Its like the gigs at the point except outside. Wall to wall with underage pikeys.

I just moved over to Ireland last year and we are heading to HiFi. I love my trance and am not a knacker and neither is anybody else I know thats into this kind of music back in Manchester. I normally fly back home for a night out so I've yet to experience Irish clubbers. I'm really hoping the crowd for this isn't too bad because the line up looks really good

What is it that attracts so many nackers to these events? Is it purely Trance DJ's? I've never been into trance myself but have never been able to work out why is has such a huge scumbag following. I hear Oxygen had quite its share of Pikey's - I was at electric picnic and it was fine, aparantly Garden party was nacker free too. Pitty they can't have a no-nacker policy on the door.

Viejo Zorro

The general stereotype that the followers of Trance music subscribe to the lifestyle that involves pale sports clothing, baseball caps at 45 degree angles and cheap argos bling is one which isn't exactly consistant. While trance may attract a multitude of scobes, there are also a few ordinary decent trance lovers left over from 1999.

Surrender

Anyone else see the Prodigy in 'Ath Cliath in November, I thought it was pants. Would rather see people like Mylo and Vitalic having a bigger role, Razorlight?, Why?, Not a fan of trance but I hope to God that the chav's are kept at bay

Lenny

I just read over there on another forum someone saying that there is rumours of Hi-fi not going ahead? are they still subject to licence for this event?
Think I'll give this a miss, kind of giving up on going to irish festivals they just cost an arm and a leg now

aye. if you can't beat them, get off your chops and join them!
it's what i did at Global Gathering last year and i had a blast (the wall to wall scum in the main arena was funny:p )

Zascar

Well I suppose if they have necked 7 yokes they are generally pretty harmless and funny to watch at least...

jonny68

Not a bad line up but im only back from Ibiza when that's on so no doubt ill be looking to recouperate plus i doubt id have the money plus the amount of skangers from Tallaght,etc that will be there would put me off.
