Grimes? Think you're a bit confused. She played FF on the saturday but as far as i know she's not announced for EP yet?

Didn't she self confirm a little while ago?

Yup, her site has her down as 1st Sept Electric Picnic

Cheers for that, another to consider if it's worth it...

I have tickets to both, but I'm thinking Body and Soul will be better...

Anyone interested in gig buddies?

May be going to EP this year, but can't be sure yet if I'll have anyone to go with.

Hearing rumours that Bombay Bicycle Club will be added.

Is it possible to see a day by day lineup? Barring that, does anyone know what day The Cure are playing? Thanks.

Thanks, I didn't see it, although I tried reading for a few pages back. There isn't a day by day line up also is there?

Bon iver announced a date in the O2 in November so that's him ruled out for EP now! Was kinda hoping he'd be added to the bill.

Wiirdo

Is there any chance The Roots play a gig outside of EP do yous think?

Richie Hawtin is free that weekend too.

Sure wasn't John Digweed listed to play initially and a few days later he was off the list. Both not typically EP acts but I would still love to see Hawtin play.

Lianne La Havas is playing EP according to her website.

wow now thats a little treat..

saw her in the sugar club a while ago - sublime..

Was just chancing my arm and googling "1st september electric picnic" and the other dates to see if I could find any acts that had not been announced but had it in their tour dates.

All I could find was Patrick Kielty is in the comedy tent.

That totally wasn't worth it :pac:

Edit: I just tried putting in the numerical dates and found the Kanyu Tree also

Why don't they do a full weekend ticket with no camping?

That's annoying so. I just cant's see him in the 02 myself though. Is it an all seated gig?

Still hope for the Shins. Apparat is doing a good few festivals and would fit in nicely, better yet if they could book Modeselektor and get them together.

Richie Hawtin is free that weekend too.

Raging about Bon Iver. I would love to see them at EP. You are right about the O2, not so sure it is the right venue for them..

You'd be better posting here http://forum.electricpicnic.ie/
I believe there is a meet up every year at EP and plenty of peeps on their own

is that not from last year? are they playing this year?!

frantic190

That is from last year, but it was said on Today FM or 98Fm that they are playing the Picnic. I just thought they mixed up the years but maybe not?

I think they want to be like Glastonbury with all the festival goers there for the whole weekend camping though they've made a concession with the Sunday day tickets.

Technically, they do. Camping is free. The price you pay is the cost of admission to the venue. You are not obliged to camp and can come and go from the enclosure as you please.

barryd09

Any chance Noel Gallagher will be added I wonder? I see hes free the Friday & Saturday of that weekend the last time I checked.

honru

Jaysus things have been fairly mute on the announcements side of things!

Didn't someone say here EP said on their facebook there would be an announcement late June? Gotta be this week
