Forgot to mention The Specials! Can't wait to see them. Probably won't see them again if you don't go.

The ladies can use one of these for going the toilet. They're popular at outdoor festivals.

However, a number 2 and you're own your own!

EP is more than just the music though. The year I went, I knew about 2 of the bands playing and still had a fantastic time.

And you'll have even more fun this year :D

Basically what happened is a similar courtcase happened with MCD and another forum and the ruling was that if a forum takes down defamatory material with in a reasonable length of time they're not liable, which means Boards is A-OK and the admins are allowing us to discuss MCD events again.

Didn't get tickets because I didn't think I could afford it. But now I've a job lined up for Summer. Wish I'd bought them now:(

It's not as popular this year cos of the recession, so they're still on sale. In fact there's a deposit system where you pay a certain amount now and the balance later.

How much are the tickets going for this year anyway? I've never bought them..! I live right beside the racetrack, so free tickets, and get to walk home to a warm bed, shower and a fry every night, suits me grand!:D

€220ish for the 3 days+camping.

and imo the camping is probally the best part!

Campsite can be gotten into easily without a camping ticket, so i don't miss much really!

It was grand last year. Less retards than usual. Hopefully they'll keep it up this year.
Think I'll get my ticket tomorrow in any case.

Yeah credit where its due, was managed brilliantly last year compared to other years. Much less mud, constant clean up staff, way more bins and toilets, and of course the eco-cups! Brilliant, picking up three empty cups = free pint!:D Or closing time on sunday, got €45 for them!

I don't know much by M83 but they'd be worth watching for Teen Angst alone.

They have a deposit thing, where you pay €100 now, then €110 at a later stage and you get your ticket, helps if you dont have the whole €220 at one time.

I hope to god you're not doing honour's math.

Yeah I'm looking forward to it - Boys Noize, MSTRKRFT, 2 Many DJs, Bloody Beetroots, Digitalism, Crookers, Dr Lektroluv... should be some weekend (all that's missing is Daft Punk and Justice). And there's a few decent bands to lure me out of the dance arena too I really wanna see Deadmau5 but he's clashing with 2 Many DJs
Hopefully the weather will be like it is now.

I'll probably head along to Electric Picnic too and then I'm off to I Love Techno in Belgium in October

How come you got the good jobs!?:( I got stuck down at the buses nearly every night.:rolleyes:

As for tickets, tickets are always available on the day anyway, but don't buy the bands off the bunch of travellers at the entrance as some are real and some are fake.
