Has anyone else here inadvertently had this insurance policy added to their booking and subsequently charged. I'm usually very thorough when I make bookings and I don't remember ticking nor unticking this during the process. One can ring them for instructions on its cancellation but it seems rather cheeky nonetheless.

IIRC it's a fairly big and obvious section when going through the booking process. It is set as "yes, add insurance to my booking" or whatever it says by default, which I think is a bit sneaky - should be opt in rather than out.

Well Cyril Hahn, John Grant, Dylan Moran & Terri Hooley have all self-confirmed.
Think thats all we know so far.

Bestival is the weekend after EP. Were already sharing the likes of Fatboy Slim, the Walkmen, Franz Ferdinand, The Knife..
Maybe we will get more from their lineup - Belle & Sebastian, Sinead O'Connor or M.I.A.

This on the same weekend, and few bands confirmed for EP Sunday are playin on the sat.

Would be class to get some of the Saturday bands to play EP; James Blake, The XX and Justice in particular!

Oasis_Dublin

James Blake is playing something else, isn't he? Forbidden Fruit perhaps? He is definitely mentioned in the daily ads of some radio station anyway

roll

am hoping steve mason will be on it - have a suspicion he will be but can't get confirmation....

Aye, but that's the June Bank holiday so he could easily play again in September. Wouldn't make it to FF since it's on the same weekend as The Rory Gallagher festival, which is of course better than EP!

I've heard tell of Bastille and Lumineers? Wouldn't be overall pushed on either of them anyway.

bastille are playing sea sessions in Donegal next month and Lumineers are playing Dublin in November. Would they play so soon after/before a gig?

Bastille are also playing Indiependence so reckon they could play EP as well alright.

Unreasonable not-gonna-happen wishlist (Not including QOTSA and Daft Punk because that's just ridiculous) :

M83
James Blake
Atoms For Peace
Streetlight Manifesto
Portugal. The Man
Alt-J
OFWGKTA




Slightly more reasonable:

And So I Watch You From Afar
Cold War Kids
Enemies
Antlers
Adebisi Shank
Daughter
The World is A Beautiful Place...
Caribou
Mmoths

Yup. Every band/act that you've ever wanted to see play live will be making an appearance.

It's a fact.

I've got friends in the industry

Ha ha a guy I was on a stag with last year had seen Hasselhoff in Scotland the week b4, said it was awesome they just went for a laugh and to pick up chicks said it was great cheesy craic they would definitely go again.


Will we see any big names tomorrow? I don't count FBS as a headliner?? (Although isn't he somewhere else on the Sat night? He must be on Fri) so I'm expecting one more 'big' name.

sassyj

I'm going to guess Pet Shop Boys and Editors
