Ive noticed that since they started the day tickets on Sunday, these people seem to get dry days. Coming in all clean and smug. Feckers

Is everyone forgetting about Omar Souleyman, saw him at a melt festival this year, highlight of my weekend

BadTurtle

Hope Temples are on Saturday, don't mind missing anyone there for them.

They're on the Sunday sadly Friday looks very bare, Foals the only mainstage act I would have any interest in seeing then. Lets hope the other stages are opened and its not like last year.

BadTurtle

Friday and Saturday look quite bare so.
Beck, OutKast, Rustie, St Vincent, Mogwai, Temples, Slowdive...that day's gonna be some cluster**** of clashes.

I imagine the site is a bit of a washout at this stage? Might actually sell my ticket. It would be the first time in 11 years I don't go...!

Talk about jumping to conclusions. T'was only a misting of rain, pair of wellies and you'll be grand.

Very muddy, trucks aren't helping!

Chin up people - there's good drainage there and sure even if it is wet, if you have wellies and rain gear you'll be grand.

Keep positive people

We live in Ireland folks. Always assume a wet festival, bring the right clothes & boots and if its not muddy & wet (or even sunny :eek:) then its a bonus.

You is well mental.

Hoody, poncho, wellies, and dry socks in the car. Done.

Duff

Once my tent stays dry, I couldn't care less what the weather is like at the end of the day. Bring enough spare clothes and you'll be grand.

They're mad hanging their clothes out. Sure there's no drying in it.

I think we're looking at the scaled back Friday this year again. Last year Sh!t robot and Giorgio Moroder were set to play the EA on Friday too, so we could see something like Bicep/robot - Duke Dumont/Annie Mac?

Vinden Lillage

Saw from the coverage on BBC three that SBTRKT didn't have Samphra performing with him and setlist was quite different to his previous shows, didnt even play Hold on. Hope this isnt the case for ep as I think Samphra makes his set twice as good, hopefully he'll be on stage with him.

roll

putting up the tent might just be the biggest issue-looks quare windy on friday.....

i would imagine he'll have Sampha with him. it's a complete waste of time and money booking Sampha for a DJ set on his own otherwise...

Hold On and a few more were in the setlist a few weeks back:

Duke Dumont is sunday, confirmed on his website & Annie Mac is on saturday, confirmed on website! Can't wait to see them, just watched them both on you tube in Ibiza a few weeks back! Hurry up Friday!

Fair enough

But yeah, could still have a cool electro/dance combo for Friday EA!

For anyone using the Android App:

The Main stage and RBMA were added to the clashfinder earlier.

HOWEVER … Someone changed the "print advisory flag" on clashfinder to "1" which should indicate a final timetable. It has now been changed back to "3".

The app uses this flag if you are using auto-update. So basically if you updated while the flag was set to 1, the app thinks the timetable is final and will not auto-update anymore.

If this is happening, you will need to go to Tools->Reload Data in order to get back to level 3.
