    have you seen the home fries guys? they were at body and soul and have been spotted around several other festivals. Buttery new potatoes, then fried in a pan and topped with chilli, cheese anything you like.

    Droooooooolllls!

    Sorry guys, guess it's not coming!

    Had no reason to doubt the contact.

    Pitty.

    Now roll on good weather!

    There is definitely another announcement and I know of one (at least) high profile Irish band that it on it. I am merely presuming that there are more.

    There is a really really good Indian place that I can't remember the name of atm but it was bloody lovely! They have a dude outside giving business cards all the time.

    I usually find myself nibbling around the different places on the starter kinda stuff from their menus rather than have one big giant meal at once but you just gota accept the food prices and enjoy it.

    I done the bring lots of your own food stuff in the past and just can't be arsed anymore. There's too much good stuff to try there :pac:

    Poor bodhrandude must be devestated with the lack of announcement, he even called out a boardie who usually has info on the EP board

    Not too bothered, theres loads in the line up to keep me going and quite a few a friends playing in some of the smaller stages. I'm sure they might still announce tomorrow, I would understand if they didn't bother but I would find it strange that they would increase capacity while decreasing the main arena line up by 14 or 15 acts. Didn't someone say that there was 74 acts announced for the main arena but 90+ acts announced in 2013 and 14.

    Home Fries definitely a good call if they're there - yum yum :)

    Kinara Kitchen was great two years ago and then last year the queues kept scaring me off. Hoping to get to them this year.

    Mindfield is a good spot for coffee when you need your fix - by Sunday afternoon I am likely to be found huddling somewhere in the Leviathan tent with a paper cup of caffeine goodness from the Amnesty guys!

    I seen her in 2008 before Underworld and she was great craic

    Pink Mooners - Just got an email. I remember someone saying ages ago that the walk to the main arena was a pain. Not anymore wihoo:
    New for this year is a gate from the Pink Moon Campsite to directly access the arena. Please note this will only be open when the arena is open, if you are returning from late night entertainment (such as salty Dog or the Trailer Park) then you will need to access Pink Moon through the wooded path entrance (the same route you will use for arrival). Gate opening times will be displayed on the arena gate.

    She is a black Jamaican singer who had a string of hits back in the 1980s, her music is a combination of stylistic reggae inspired pop and disco funk. She made the headlines when she appeared on the Russell Harty show and misinterpreted something he said and beat him on the head with her handbag. Her group had the amazing Jamaican luminaries Sly and Robbie as her rhythm section, they also produced her records and played with her live in the 1980s. She used a different band during her tour that took in the Electric Picnic in 2008 where her stage show consisted have a huge boardwalk which she stepped down at the start of her show in the Electric Arena. Heres a link to her wiki bio. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_Jones
