    There with drug-filled bells on!

    What a weekend; I broke out in a big grin today when I realised it's barely 4 months away. The line-up accouncements began in February last year, so hopefully we'll know a few acts by the end of next month.

    Anyone know if the €89 early-bird tickets are still available? Are there really only 300 or is that just a marketing gimmick.

    The lineup won't start being announced till about mid February. It's pretty stellar every year though. But...

    I've heard a rumour (which is hopefully all it is) that two of the main acts to be announced first will be from the Ed Banger label. Say it ain't so :(

    Got my ticket anyway; €99 in the second-round presales. TBH I'd have paid Oxegen prices rather than miss this.

    If they book an ed banger act [a ****e label which is dead since 2008] as one of the headliners, that will be a ****ing disgrace. A psytrance / techno / ambient festival booking a ****ty ****ing electro-house act? Cúntish


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,587 ✭✭✭Pace2008


    Not many days left in February. Any hint as to when the first announcements might be, Neutronyx? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,598 ✭✭✭✭bodhrandude


    Still no sign of a line up for this, when are they gonna get around to announcing this?

    that's past acts.
    the sentence before that list:
    "Hundreds of Acts have already played in the previous five editions of Life Festival including: "


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,598 ✭✭✭✭bodhrandude


    I was figuring some of these names were familiar as I was at the 2008 one which was probably the most reggae inspired one and the last one in Galway.
    I remember also catching Sphongle and Hallucinogen who were superb, same guy I think.

    im waiting to hear myself,thinking of hitting life this year but id like to know the lineup before i get my ticket.they seem to be very slow in releasing it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,539 ✭✭✭ghostdancer


    the launch party is on Friday April 1st, so presumably they'll release it then.

    still, only leaves 1 payday for lots of people between the lineup announcement, and the actual festival itself, for people waiting on the lineup before getting a ticket, or convincing friends to get tickets...

    guys i have been to life for the last 4 years in a row and i can assure you its not all about the music, dont know if you all read the blurb that they released when people were asking for a line up about how its all about community peace love blah blah ****ing blah but trust me its the best festival ive ever been to and i cant.

    DIGWEED!!!!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,172 ✭✭✭cosmic


    I haven't been since it's moved from Gort. I'd wanted to go this year but I'd say John Digweed (and it's current location) could attract a different sort of clientele to this one :(
