    This was reported in the Mirror today about a girl left in critical condition after taking 3 tablets from a batch of fake ecstasy pills. So a word of warning they could be floating about Body & Soul festival too. http://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish...spital-5711038

    These are the pills that Ana Hick apparently took, so watch out for these and read pill reports and consult the Bluelight forum.

    From the official website:
    The Body&Soul Arena will open at 12pm on Saturday 20th June

    That sounds like no main stage on the Friday - as per previous years with the exception of Darkside last year.


    According to Lambs website they are playing on the Friday?

    Flight Facilities put on their facebook that they're playing the Saturday night. Did the mainstage finish early on the Sunday? Thought it finished at 12 last year, if so I'd hope Leftfield play on the Friday then.

    I reckon Leftfield will close the festival on Sunday, on the main stage, just like Caribou did last year. That was epic and was the highlight of the weekend, Caribou were billed as festival headliners so I reckon Leftfield will pretty much fill that bill also.

    He was the first person I thought they'd book this year. Mad surprised they didn't.. They defo need a DJ with a bit of a techy edge to mix things up a bit.

    Its only 4/5 weeks til body and soul now... very much doubt anyone else will be added to the line up. :(

    Anyone know if they're sold out yet? We're so broke that we've been putting off getting a ticket but my friend just posted on Facebook looking for one, so now we're paranoid that we've missed our window. :'(

    Reckless In Love has Hidden Agenda on the Friday, Mother on the Saturday again (yay) and Radio Shack on the Sunday. Remember Hidden Agenda & Mother but is Radio Shack a new night or were they Friday last year? 1 month!

    Hidden agenda were deffo Sunday last year....they ended with the World Cup tune. Mother were Saturday...can't rem fr? Radio shack was a separate small tent that was next to the processco and wine bar within the walled gardens...had a lovely Saturday sitting there listening to fab tunes. They must be taking over the whole stage then, interesting.
    Can't for the life of me rem who was on in the woods on the fri night, spent most of it in my house

    The Drifter was on last on the Friday - think it was hosted by Nightflight maybe????

    Will miss RadioShack from the walled garden if they're not there.... hopefully that little area stays

    I really, really hope there are more tickets! My boyfriend has never been to a festival and I persuaded him to come to this. So many incredible acts; Sohn, Clark, Superfurries... to name but the most exciting!

    Fingers crossed there'll be a tier five.

    I actually behaved myself on the Friday, couple of beers max. Got silly on the Saturday and then you can enjoy the Sunday too. I find if you go hard on the Friday you're kinda hanging a bit for the Saturday/Sunday. Also if you don't get too wasted you'll remember where things are.

    Pity HA aren't closing the reckless stage again on Sunday. They nailed it last year. But suppose it's only fair it's rotated around.

    I'm still holding out hope for a couple of other profile acts to be added, the poster still says many more TBA

    Yeah it was Nightflight who ran the Reckless in Love stage on the Friday last year I'm pretty sure. Delighted to hear Hidden Agenda and Mother are back down there, they had some great Irish DJs play down there last year. Getting close now, only a month to go!

    Looks like I'll be going to this on my todd! Any advice welcome, but I'll just be doing the sat and sun nights and was thinking of just kipping in the car. Would I be able to do this with the layout of the place, and security and what not?!!

    I reviewed Body & Soul a few times now from a volunteering perspective, here is the one from 2013, I hope you like.

    Check this out, went to Glastonbury on my own last year and met up with people in a similar situation. Made some great friends.

    B&S is about 4 acts short of last years bill, would be nice if we got that final announcement, so far no Sunday evening reggae act has been announced as yet.

    You will have a bit of a walk, but nothing deal-breaking.

    Not sure what you mean by security.... if you mean festival staff, they won't mind.

    If you mean getting broken into / vandalised, I doubt it. Your car should be safer with you in it, than mine all on its lonesome.

    I've been to BnS the last three years and would say you'll be totally grand, come along, no worries :)
