    What exactly is a science tent? :S


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


    i'm more confused by the "Wednesday Show" with a baby icon :pac:

    hope there's a few more toilets than just 1 lot in the main area, could have used some last year up where the comedy tent was.

    Time Is A Thief
    Looking forward to INDIEPENDENCE Music & Arts Festival. We'll be taking to the Red Bull/Breaking Tunes stage at 11:15pm on Saturday night. A stage so nice they named it twice.

    Just wondering if anyone can help me...
    There's a group of us going 3 days and camping. Most of us can't get off work or can't finish early so probably won't get to site until 7 or 8. Will there still be much space in campsite? We'd like to pitch together, 4 tents. Don't mind whether it's campsite A or B.

    You should be able to find a space together no problem.

    INDIEPENDENCE Music & Arts Festival
    Folks, Camping tickets have just ticked over 70% sold. With almost two weeks to go, it would appear that they will sell out and most likely in advance so if you are planning on camping for the weekend, don't delay!

    Anyone know what the capacity of this is?

    I've heard 5,000 but not sure if that's right!

    Has to be Berdyman's epic live show.. brilliant fun altogether


  • Registered Users Posts: 138 ✭✭scico rocks


    I've seen Beardyman a few times now, but have to say, it's wearing a bit thin.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 9 Here Comes The Sun


    Hi, I heard there would be a comedy stage/tent but can't see it on the site map. Anyone know if there will be one? Thanks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 jazzzzy


    Has anyone ever volunteered at Indiependence before?

    Applied and got an e-mail saying I've got a spot, just wondering what kind of work is involved? They say you get time off to watch some of the music...so if I can work it around Feeder, The Coronas and The Frank and Walters in particular I'll be happy :P


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


    don't know about Indiependence volunteering, but i'd imagine it's just checking tickets, checking wristbands, searching bags for glass bottles, directing the traffic coming on to the site, etc.

    Have never volunteered for Indiependence, but various other ones, Im doing Liss Ard festival in Co Cork the following weekend. Its like any festival and like ghostdancer says, info stewards, car park steward, directing festival production traffic, guarding production areas or areas restricted from regular festival punters and wristband checking. Youll enjoy it, its a fun way to work for your festival ticket. If your shifts clashes with the bands you want to see you can always change over with other volunteers who want to see something else.

    If you want to get into it, you got to get out of it. (Hawkwind 1982)

    Not a bother!

    Just said I'd say it in case you were trying to get to both of them!

    Hi, I heard there would be a comedy stage/tent but can't see it on the site map. Anyone know if there will be one? Thanks!

    Think there'll only be a few hours of comedy over the weekend in the silent tent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 158 ✭✭Curve Music


    If you volunteer for us you fo 16 hours work over two shifts on the weekend. some shifts run from early til 6-7pm, some from 6-7pm until late but we generally try to allow volunteers one early and one late slot.

    As others have mentioned, the duties involved include those outlined above amongst others.

    Does anyone know what the VIP perks are? I won them on the ray foley show
    And was wondering what to expect:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 158 ✭✭Curve Music


    VIP = backstage bar and backstage access.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,767 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    I won't be able to buy my ticket til Sunday or Monday, is it likely to be sold out before then?

  • Registered Users Posts: 22 ssimples09


    I dont think so, they announced a few days ago on facebook that 70% of tickets were sold so I doubt they will sell out this weekend, maybe they will next week though, who knows!
