Enjoy the weekend - I am gone.

At the moment can't even decide whether to set an alarm in the morning. I want to be out of here early. Soak up the atmosphere.

Mince Pie

So, typical can't fricking sleep!

On another note, clashfinder is wrong, Booka Brass Band have confirmed they are playing 00.30 and not 22.30 which leaves me back to playing spoons in the woods rather than subject myself to Shít Pet Boys. Judder

There's the old wind and rain doing it's thing

Just noticed Jon Gomm playing on the Sunday, that's something I didn't notice yet!

Lovely

Mince Pie

Oh and on another note, can I please address the meet up at the Salty Dog at 5pm on the Friday, it will also be a good meet up in the fact that if you have forgotten something I'm sure someone else will have brought extra.

I will be wearing a black and white hat unless its outside and the heavens break.

It's pissing rain over here I really hope it's a different story down in Stradbally.

Looks like stradbally is taking a soaking...

Useful.Idiot

forecasts all week were telling us it was going to be soaking tonight.

windy and wet in Portlaoise

bennyob

I know, Ive been following the forecasts all week. Not sure if shine has.

D.Q

it is now electric picnic friday. Rain no longer exists as we once knew it.

Da Shins Kelly

Very stormy where I am too right now and has been all day. Hope it clears up.

For a variety of reasons our small group of three won't make it to Stradbally until 10, maybe 11on the Friday night. Will there be any issues getting our wrist bands at that late hour? I know finding a decent tent spot etc will be hell at that stage but we don't mind once we can get in!

Cheers.

Wristbands no prob. Wont be much green left im afraid.

Thanks bennyob, until about two hours ago we didn't even have tickets so we're just going to run with it!

Raining cats and Dogs here for last hour but that was expected hopefully some early morning wind should dry it up a bit...ground out there was good today so. Should take the rain ok ...ish

Pitching the tent will be tricky if it keeps up till early morning

Drive safely everyone 10 mins either way will make no difference what so ever

Just catching up on this thread now before hitting the road in the morning. Loving all the help, tips, band recommendations, site advice and everything else that goes with it! Fair play folks! Hope everyone continues that vibe on site and has the time of their lives....

However, one posters input stands out from the rest - beansy, will you marry me??

EDIT: Read a bit further and see that she mentions another half. Ah well sh*te.... You're a lucky man Mr. Beansy!

highly recommend going to The Trampz in the Trailer Park at 9pm Friday night. Great funk band from Dundalk and deadly craic.
Also if anyone fancies something a bit heavier, I'd Fight Gandhi ( a band what I am in ) will be playing the Oxjam tent at 4pm Sunday.
Everyone have a deadly time! hopefully the weather won't be pants. and if it is I hope at least its a nice enough pair of pants.

I'd fight Ghandi too...if he wasn't such a holier-than-thou hippy goon. And dead.

I'd fight Ghandi if he was undead.

And so it begins

Have fun people!
