Then, take the rest of them and start you own band and create what you like or think is missing

That's what I'm presently doing, funnily enough! We nearly have an EP finished.

Hope a couple of ye got down to Aaron Lee Tasjan. Great craic despite the small turnout.

Apart from the newstalk tent (which is full) and going to stradbally is there anywhere else on site showing the match?

Got home this morning for a shower and clean up. Stuffing my face now with a big fcuk off beef dinner to load up the carbs for the day.
Elbow, michael k, band of horses, Duran x2, ragn bone man... And missing real estate..

Today's the big music day for me... Bring it on!!

Was that you that recommended him this morning? Loved it

First time ever leaving a festival early but it is what it is.
I loved my time there. Because the headliners were very underwhelming for me it meant we just kept walking and finding.
I have a heavy heart knowing what I'm going to miss but 2 days are better than none.
Keep going people...keep going

Thought ATCQ last night were fabulous, really stuck a finger up to those writing them off as headliners. Though shame the weather was absolutely awful during their set, the sound mixing on Q-Tips mic was way too low, and whoever was in control of the live video ought to be ejected into the sun.

Today is a hellish sauna of a day. A shower would even be a waste of money as it'd be undone in minutes. Tomorrow's shower is going to be absolutely transcendental though.

Yeah any of those corporate places showing the match does anyone know?

Crowd of about 10 ppl ejected from site few mins ago. They were being frogmarched down to main entrance as I was passing heading to trench town. Dunno what the story is

I've had two already today. To quote the great don Logan "I'm sweating like a ****"

F*** Pete Tong - it's all gone King Kong!

Left this morning as I don't want to see any of the bands that are on today. The rain last night and the muck this morning were the straw that broke the camels back and sent me packing. I'm glad I tried it but I know I will never go to another outdoor festival again, I don't enjoy them! London Grammar and the xx were the highlights for me. They were amazing and I was right at the barrier for both!

We booked into the Maldron portlaoise. 150, not too bad. Just drove there from the site with our tent and had a shower and watching the game. Bus shuttle back after, handy out.

Stillill42

Holy ****. The Lemon Twigs.

Can't believe the rubbish on here over last few days, just back after two nights of solid entertainment, great value for money. xx, London Grammar, These charming men, otherkin, Declan Mckenna, Annie Mac, jagwar ma, riptide movement, divine comedy, the strypes, birdy, madness, roadhouse doors, frank and Walters, Interpol plus mindfield, throwback stage all for €200, and some clowns on here moaning about it, unbelievable.
