Electric Picnic 2014 ** NO TICKET DISCUSSION ALLOWED ** see new mod note

laois gael

Latest is rain has not let up and is still misting down horrible morning but that was forecast ...ground will be soaked so a day for wel lies or boots starting off anyway ...sky looks to be clearing so hopefully around 12/1 the drier weather will come

Winds not as bad as predicted but still present

It won't spoil the enjoyment esp when better weather is on the way


Just take extra care driving Folkes

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

the app says that they're on at 22:30....

i've seen a few acts on fb post their times/stages, and then correct themselves later. BBB might be working off a preliminary schedule or something.

The Minutes only finish at 00:30, and Cult Called Man are scheduled to come on at 00:50.
it would also leave a 90min gap on the Salty Dog if BBB aren't playing then.

unless the app has completely wrong times for half of tonight...

With the really ****e weather out there, i'm starting to be kinda glad i wound up working (not planned) today, let everyone else deal with the wind and rain and then saunter in as the sun shine blasts through the clouds

(that is how it's going to roll in my mind and i'm sticking with it)

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.

I'm in the same boat as Dien but I'm going in a campervan. Would anyone be able to tell me if there will be any issues getting into the campervan area at this time?

Thanks.

Anyone have an idea of the travel time down by car from Dublin? Leaving at about 6 which in itself is probably a bad plan :cool:

BandMember

Sorry beansy!! Didn't mean to freak you out. I was only messing but reading back it probably does seem a bit mad alright... I happened to be reading a series of funny posts you made at the time and was laughing at them as they were like something I would do. Anyway, my apologies.

Right, time to hit the road! To use a great line from a great movie, let's go to work..... (puts on sunglasses coolly and strolls towards the car as Little Green Bag plays in the background)
