    Check the ep site but you can bbq but with limitations, much as I love to cook there's no way I'm hauling all the required stuff, great food on-site anyway, Prosecco in a plastic bottles, no issue there, if you put drinks under your tent it really helps cool them a bit

    Where are the designated BBQ areas (joplin campsite in particukar) ? I never saw them other years ... I have however seen people using disposable bbq's outside their tents though. Has anyone any experience of being told off for trying this?

    Yes, got one in 2012, it's the business, get a roll of duck tape and tape everything on to it and sail on by all those poor souls lugging everything in by hand! Cannot recommend it highly enough!

    How are the stage times for people so far? No major clashes for me so far, biggest worry I have is that Bicep or Soulwax will clash with the XX or Duran Duran. Who do we reckon will headline the EA? Interpol, Father John Misty and another?

    I think you have to ask yourself "does he deserve a ticket?" ... ticketmaster will should sort it out.

    We'll worth getting in touch with them I'd say, I made a typo on my address a few years ago and never got my tickets,, I realised this quite late but they still sorted it as it was all documented, I had to collect from the box office entrance which didn't suit me but hey it could have been worse, they basically voided my paper tickets as it went missing in the post, and I collected my tickets at the red car park entrance

    Both great. I'm sure you'll enjoy them. Yeah Saturday's a nightmare. Not to worry.

    Disaster. Bicep/The XX clashing, Duran Duran/Soulwax clashing, Tiga/PSB clashing. Worst thing is that there are large chunks during the Saturday and Sunday where there is nobody i want to see. Feck it, someone at least tell me the weather forecast is looking good..


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,053 ✭✭✭D.Q


    Surely King Kong Company are playing another slot as well as the Sunday afternoon


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,760 ✭✭✭Effects


    Feck it, someone at least tell me the weather forecast is looking good..

    Storm weather seems to be arriving early so hitting about 7pm on Friday. Some break in the rain on Saturday afternoon then it's heavy rain from 4pm, through the night clearing to scattered showers all day Sunday.

    They're 2 separate things.

    Harvest are on the Trailer park stage doing Neil Young covers.

    The salty dog no stars are a music collaboration and play a classic album each year on the salty dog stage.
    This year they're covering exile on main street by the rolling stones.

    What time is this going down? Love me a bitta the Stones.
