Ya boooooo indeed

The line up is going to be incredibly underwhelming. Just as well there's more to it than the headliners.

Yeah seems like Longtitude may have snapped up a lot of acts that would usually play EP..Maybe there'll be a crossover though!

Arctic monkeys. Woeful woeful woeful band. That'll turn more people ff going than anything I can think of.

Really, anything? What about Pitbull headlining?...or Fatboy Slim?

One band wouldn't turn me off going at all. But I've a feeling the whole line-up won't be spectacular this year!

I'd be quite content if The Knife just played... The first year I went last minute just or the fun of it and absolutely loved it... I don't really care who's playing I'll be there anwyay... It's just extra nice if someone you really like plays at it... half of the fun is finding music and stuff you usually wouldn't else hear or see

Artic Monkeys are hardly a ep headliner, more of an oxygen band I would have thought. I'd be more concerned is **** robot and kormac playing rather than the monkeys or squeaky bjork.

Get what you're saying but for me there has to be bands I like playing to make me consider going at all. I'll gladly go out and explore other stages/find new acts when I'm there. Think EP's line-up could end up being average cos of Longitude. I'd be happy enough if a few from Bestival's line-up were in the mix at EP!

My e-mail says "Your online account shows orders from 2012 so you will be automatically emailed a code enabling you to book tickets at the €169.50 price. This email will be with you before Friday." I presume everyone else is receiving similar ones based on their own story.

Line-up will be released at 12.15pm tomorrow apparently http://www.hotpress.com/Johnny-Marr/news/Johnny-Marr-for-Electric-Picnic/9786604.html?new_layout=1

if people have the same letters in the code (apart from the XXX part), then it's a general code.

Having bought Camper Van tickets was enough to get the discount. Happy days.

Im not even going this year. They just emailed me. I've been to nearly all them and booked them through the ticket master website. So they must be going through the purchase history and emailing people. Fair play to them.
