That sounds good, wonder do Dublin stores have the same...

Will they be showing X-Factor on Saturday night? :pac:

Anyone used the safety lockers there before??

I'm thinking of bringing down my DLSR camera but its expensive and I want to keep it safe (and dry!) when I'm not using it.

Never been to EP before so figure it might be a good place to snap some pics...

Musical tip - James vincent mcmorrow seems to be playing body & soul on sunday as well as the crawdaddy

Tent tip - pack your sleeping bag in a sack during the day so it doesnt get damp!

General tip - use portaloos not shee wees

Read on the website that "soft furnishings will be allowed in and inflatables and fold up chairs will be available inside". Can hardly see them stopping people with director-type chairs. Is this new or has it always been there?

fichillie

I see you can buy day tickets for the sunday...is it possible to get day tickets for the saturday?

Toast

No. Only Sunday was made available for day tickets.

Just seen that as well, can't see them stopping director chairs but as with anything there's always some dingbat out there just waiting to ruin your day.

Only just realised Kate Tempest (Sound of Rum) is playing in Body and Soul on Sunday @7pm, Love Letter stage. My happiness is complete. Check her out lads if you get a chance, she's an unreal rapper/poet from London.........

Is there a line up time schedule for the Trenchtown stage, on the EP site it just announces a few names for it but no times. Would like to catch Toots and the Maytals there if possible, will be more intimate than the main stage.

Tekken

If someone is dropping you down and not actually going to the gig.
(someone heading down that way giving me a lift)

What is the closest they will be able to drop us off to the actual site?
