    The second post was originally an ad for that Riptide shower. Obviously has been deleted since.

    Certainly sends the line-up in a different direction alright.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭moonflower


    The Coronas are alright live. I've never been a fan but I saw them last summer and they put on a fairly good show.

    I hope the headliners are good, I'd like to go but I've either seen or arent too into most of the acts announced so far.

    No. It's just up the road from there, a few hunnert yards.

    Of all the reasons I've seen for people to decide not going festivals over the years, proximity to the Firgrove is a new one

    That's Electric Picnic & Oxegen out too ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 420 ✭✭grind gremlin


    Ha Ha :) Brilliant.... hotel booked now. Looking forward to another weekend of madness this year :)

    No, sorry Johnny.

    Damn.

    Maybe McDonald's will hire me again.

    If any of the bands pull out though, keep me in mind!

    Press Release – “INDIEPENDENCE is Back and its Bigger then ever”
    Date of Release: 12-April-2010

    Curve Music Management are delighted to announce the initial details of this year’s INDIEPENDENCE Music Festival in association with Bavaria which will take place at Deer Farm just outside Mitchelstown, co. Cork over the August Bank Holiday Weekend this year. The intimate 5,000 person capacity event has punched above its weight in recent years with the acts it has attracted and 2010 is no different. Already announced for the weekend festival are London based act WHITE LIES whose 2009 debut To Lose My Life was the first UK act to debut at number 1 in the UK charts. They won best new band at both the Q and NME awards in 2009 while also picking up an MTV Europe Award for Best Push Artist. WHITE LIES will play their only Irish Festival performance this summer at INDIEPENDENCE.

    Other acts announced include recent Meteor winners of the best album gong THE CORONAS who have been selling out huge venues all over Ireland, UK Festival favourites Reverend & The Makers whose debut The Stage of Things went top 5 in the UK album charts. DUKE SPECIAL will also perform at this year’s festival bringing his eclectic and eccentric live performance to Mitchelstown. With at least one more headliner to be announced along with another 30 top class festival acts, the line-up looks unbelievably strong for a festival with the lowest ticket price in the country of any festival even close to this size. Other acts announced so far include Jape, Delorentos, FRED, CODES, The Chapters, Wiggle, O Emperor, Fish Go Deep, The Flaws, Yes Cadets, The Riptide Movement, Adebisi Shank and many more.

    This year’s new site also adds to the overall aesthetic of the festival. INDIEPENDENCE 2010 will see four covered stages with the Bavaria main stage a 3,500 capacity permanent structure. The site will see a large kids area, additional gourmet food areas and bars along with an electro tent and a few more surprises along the way. 2010 also sees the addition of “The Square”, a little festival within a festival including up and coming bands and DJ’s, a Comedy tent, chill out areas, indoor covered seating and many more attractions. INDIEPENDENCE has been described as “filling the musical wasteland” between Oxegen and Electric Picnic and “the best festival in the country after the big two”, with the line-up that’s coming together and a wonderful new site in place, it looks like INDIEPENDENCE will continue to affirm its position as the best small festival that Ireland has to offer.

    INDIEPENDENCE 2010 will take place on July 31st and August 1st with the onsite camping opening at 4pm on Friday July 30th. Tickets are priced at €79 for weekend camping and €59 for weekend non-camping. Tickets are available from www.ticketgroup.ie .

    Further details on the festival are available from www.indiependencefestival.com .

    Theres quite a few bands on there i am mad to see....Got tickets for this already. Last year was excellent!!!:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 367 ✭✭Chewabacca


    Hi guys, I was just wondering if anyone here's been to Indiependence. It's in cork over the August bank holiday weekend. I had never heard of it until today and at €80 for a camping ticket is sounds like you can't go wrong. Although most of the lineup isn't really my thing theres a few bands who'd be good to see and if there's a good vibe in the campsite I'd really consider going.

    Thanks in advance.
