Don't even plant the subtle idea in my head that there could be more additions cos then I'll be disappointed where there aren't any. It's sold out now, the line up is brilliant, the only announcements we'll be getting are stages and stage times and I'm quite content with that. :P

True.... it would make bad business sense to fork out another €100,000 for another headliner when it's sold out and don't need to improve the lineup!

Any running order out yet ..?

What food are you bringing? I can't think of anything outside of bars and crisps and maybe a few apples. Want to try and eat somewhat healthy so the body holds up for the weekend so I'll probably end up buying some stuff there, I assume there's somewhere to do things like smoothies or soup?

Jus as an FYI, if you're into food, you can eat better and with more variety down at EP than the rest of the entire year. Ostrich burgers down to simple noodles/chips, and everything in between. Some of the best(and most welcome) tapas and paella and all sorts of other things are available, or have been previous years.

All based in the main arena too. You'll see it. Enjoy.

So so so looking forward to this, have backpack packed and ready to rock with duplicate spare ready for the car boot in case of emergencies, beer is bought, just needs chilling and sticking in cool bag.

c'mon the weekend!

Does anyone know if BBQ's can be brought into the campsite? From the website:

The following items may not be brought in to the arena: Alcohol, drinks bottles or cans, camping equipment, disposable barbeques. Sealed water bottles 500ml and under and food for personal consumption may be brought in to the arena.

It doesn't mention the campsite.

I don't know about proper big ones, but I doubt it.
Disposable ones are grand in the campsite, just no open flames/campfires.

So does anyone have any tips on how to create their own cool box/bag?

last thing I want to be drinking is warm cider I was thinking a normal bag lined with that emergency blanket stuff and maybe stuffed in a sleeping bag after to insulate it?
No idea what I'm doing, this is just what I've gathered from the internet that will apparently work?

I've been wondering how to waterproof me tent.
I'm told hairspray will do it, or just rub loads of wax on the seams.
Hmmm

Most camp shops sell a spray for that sort of thing i think

david75

Really? Cool. Thanks:)

I just remembered something. I've a €100 bet with someone on here that it'll go ahead.

Crumlin Children's Hospital if you don't mind.

It looks like someone got in there already. The user Joe Hart is banned, not sure what that means for pay out....

If you take the booze from your fridge and wrap it in the space blanket it will keep em a couple of degrees below what they would have been without, but this alone won't be enough. Recommend getting a super market freezer bag + some ice! Put about x6 cans in at a time and boom cool beers!
The space blanket part is important, the warmer the can going in the faster the ice will melt.
Ice is heavy & difficult to carry in. Will be on sale in the camp shops but can run out at any time.

Yep, I picked up a big can of it yesterday in Halfords for a tenner

For all those Dioralite first timers. Be warned. It's tastes manky.

And use it properly.

ghostdancer

what is "properly"? from reading the back it just seems like the next morning you throw a sachet in a cup of water, stir, drink?
i don't want to be ill all weekend after trying to make myself better :pac:

Hold your nose while you drink it.

TBH 30seconds of bad tasting water certainly beats 2 days of being hungover in a tent.

Mild crisis this morrning, couldn't find my camping chairs. Him indoors went to Woodies in Carrickmines & got 2. €12 each and they have loads.. Also, brilliant wheelbarrow half price for €35.

As for diorolyte, get the blackcurrant ones. Much easier to drink than original flavour

Where is the RBMA stage - is that the 'rave in the woods'?

Has anyone else noticed that Bronagh Gallagher who's playing on the Salty Dog is the same Bronagh Gallagher from Pulp Fiction, Star Wars ep.1, You Me & Marley...

Yea woodies seem to be the only place that have them. Debating getting the woodies one, packing + carrying it Vs buying one in the camp for €15?

Wheelbarrow is fairly large, will it fit in the boot c/w all you stuff?
Woodies do a yellow trolley for a similar price, think they call it a "grain bag trolley" something funny like that! Even this is awkward enough, last year I had to take the wheels off and lay it down in the back seat of the car.

yes, Red Bull Music Academy I think is what it stands for.

Does anybody know anything about complimentary tickets, has anyone had one previous years. I've managed to get my hands on one (through a friend that is working there and gets paid in tickets). It says 'Gate 1 Abbeyleix'. Is this the main entrance and do we queue with general admission, or is there a separate queue?

I'm presuming I need ID and the name of the person I got it off. It also says €30 compulsary donation to charity, which is grand! Anything else I will need?

5 mother fcuking days bitchezzz!!!

Hogzy

Anyone know of any camping chairs available? in Cork and/or Dublin
