    There was a poster on here a few days ago saying there was one final announcement to come (apologies - I don't recall your username) but I'm just noticing that with the addition of Trailer Park yesterday, the "And more to be added" line is gone from the poster on EP's site...

    Can we take it that this is our lot?

    Personally, I'm thrilled with it as is, but if there's more to come I'll keep a closer on here and Facebook to see the announcement!!

    Mr S?

    Wait, what?!

    Some other guy was on here yesterday saying it might rain. Where are people getting these ridiculous notions from?

    It's usually pretty cold down there at night, even if the weather is decent.

    Ok - I just went to a gig & found it to be the most boring I'd ever been to! can't believe they are on the line up.. but if you like the album go for it!

    I read this wrong initially and thought for a second you meant you had to go to Budapest on Monday the 7th, was feeling sorry for you. THOUGHT for a while I had to do this presentation thing on a stage in Dublin first thing Monday morning and was dreading it - thankfully its been postponed.

    The week will fly now, is right!
    10 days!

    Pond (obviously)
    Parquet Courts
    Viet Cong
    Metz
    Bitch Falcon
    Alvvays
    Fat White Family
    New Valley Wolves

    Just got round to listening to the EP from H099O9, definite Death Grips sound to things, if that's your bag?!

    Of those further down the lineup, I'm looking forward to Shamir (Hot Chip meets Prince), Metz (disturbingly loud garage rock), Alvvays (sugary sweet indie pop) and Natalie Prass (singer songwriter from the Matthew E White stable).

    Have you seen Ho99o9 live?

    I'm not sure they're any good but worth a look nonetheless.

    Nope, if I'm honest, hadn't heard of them until they were announced. But that sound could work quite well in B&S at night.

    Anyone know if they're still accepting volunteers? I applies to body and soul there last week but my account won't log in online. I'm getting desperate at this stage without having to spend 350 on a ticket.

    Try this one, Friends of the Earth Volunteer, similar to the Green Warden Volunteers at Body & Soul festival this year, it just cropped up in the EP facebook yesterday.
