This must be the quickest it's ever sold out..

Anyway I think this year's festival is gonna be very different now with no Franciscan Well, Canadian Molson, Kopparberg...will they take the Jager place away too? :mad:

I'm actually devastated that Heineken are sponsoring!:(

Hi lads, was wondering could anyone who was at indie before tell me what time most people start leaving the campsite at?

It's very weather dependant.Some leave at 7 or 8 am.I usually try and stay until 12 or 1pm as there are always a few garda breathaliser checkpoints about.

Main site is mostly covered - all stages on tents and the beer hall is a barn so no worries on that side from rain.

Good f*cking luck to the campers though. Site doesn't deal too well with rain in my experience.

They are indeed. 2009 (I think) was a total washout and led to loads of small crowds at stages because the rain was so bad so the organisers just stumped up the cash to get marquees for the lot. Tbf, for a festival of its size, an outdoor main stage isn't really necessary.

When i went in 2012 the Main Stage was outdoors and the other stages were marquee (bar the Red Bull stage which was outdoors)

Maybe it was 2012 was the rain and 2013 was tented so?

Either way, I was there last year and all the stages are covered now.

How much were the one day tickets when they went on sale? I presume it was the same price for each day.

I see on their facebook notification yesterday that non prescription medication is banned.

As someone getting over a cold this is pretty disappointing. Anyone here know how strict they are?. Are they going to take my benylin and panadol tablets off me! If Im upfront will they just bin it.

Also this is my first time going. Can anyone tell me how far a walk the car park is from the camping area? Will probably be leaving some backup medication.

Just want to enjoy the weekend and not be stuffy and sniffling miserably if the cold plays up......

Dont know anything about the medication to be honest however the car park is less than 5 mins walk away.

Down here now, I can confirm it's muddy but not raining

Mr Teeny

Went down yesterday evening just to see the Manics (first time seeing them). Place was in a right heap after a wet weekend and an awful lot of very tired zombie heads floating around the place. Great set by the lads though. Real pity Nicky wasn't there but hopefully the family illness isn't too bad! James is an immense frontman and a super guitarist. His voice is amazing live. Hopefully they're back soon for a headline set, an hour and 15 just wasn't enough!!

On a sour note, I hope they managed to catch the lovely young gentleman who pushed over the portaloo yesterday evening. What a scummy thing to do!

More importantly, hopefully the poor girl who ended up stuck inside and covered in a layer of blue gunk (and whatever else was inside after a messy weekend) and who ended up in an ambulance is ok today!

Aah God love her, thats really gonna ruin your buzz for the whole weekend! Yeah, I've only been twice, but the place is full off eejits, I went to castlepalooza and the crowd was way more civilised!

Is it very easy to sneak get people in without a ticket?

Heard of a few that did it
