Weathers holding up

Now the big decision, Kasabian Or Le Galaxie

Much prefer a good dance later in the evening. But i hear kasabian are great live.

Just went for a walk in the IMMA grounds, looking like a good setup, got to see Kasabian soundcheck, they were quality! looking forward to the day now!

Nice one!

As much as i dont rate Kasabian, they do put on a good show.

Hopefully the rain holds off!

I'm really getting excited, I would love to see Trinity Orchestra but as usual they are on too early in the day.

Anyone have any idea if we are aloud bring in sealed water bottles?

Standard operating procedure is no water but if you've a medical need for it they might let it in. Don't abuse this as people with real medical needs shouldn't suffer if you take advantage.

Missing Trinity Orchestra is missing the festival... get in for it people!

Having seen Le Galaxie and Kasabian.... see Le Galaxie. In fact pretty much everything I'm going in for is Irish today. Trinity Orchestra, Fight Like Apes, Daithi, Le Galaxie. Embrace the local talent!

Also Nialler9 is doing a film at 3.30 about animation in music videos which should be great to see.

Lads I can't find my ticket - is it possible to pay at gate? Will they take credit cards? Panic!

mimihops

What's the ground like, any mud or anything? Wellies/sandals/trainers??? To the previous poster there was a ticketmaster at the gate last year, not sure if they take credit card though.

what are the drinks available in the festival? not a bulmers fan

I know down by the main stage was alright when we left after Kasabian last night, it was trampled but wasn't too bad. You'd be grand without wellies.

Also, this is a long shot, but if anybody has a ticket that they aren't using for the afterparty tonight and wouldn't mind giving it to me, could you let me know? Really really want to see Austra in Custom House Square, but they won't let me go with a Saturday ticket... Raging!

There was what I think was either Heineken or Becks too.

Bulmers, Becks and some wine from what I remember. Not really a fan of any of them but stuck with Becks yesterday.

Tennants was also on sale

Slattsy

Was there yesterday, wellies are not needed at all.

Toast

It's grand down there.

Really good yesterday. Almost surprised at how well it was to be honest. There was the tiniest amount of rain a couple of times but mostly overcast which is the best weather for festivals as far as Im concerned. The bars ran super fast... the toilets didn't seem too queuy... food was good (get the massive frankfurter from the charcoal grill for a fiver.. yum).

Bands were mostly excellent. Trinity Orchestra were a great start , Daithi was too dancy for too early, Kormacs Big Band was excellent as always. Crystal Castles tore it up. Kasabian did what Kasabian does... personally I was happy to leave for Le Galaxie.

Vibe is great, everyone was in a good mood. People were happy to talk nonsense to each other. Ive hundreds of photos and no energy to go through them all but I'll leave this one here as I didn't notice it at the time:

Great day yesterday. Crystal Castles were excellent. Kasabian put on a good show too. Cant wait for today. The ground is very solid, runners hardly have any muck on them - unusual for an Irish festival
