New job on Monday, what do you think is the best way to tell them I need 4-5 days off at the end of the month? :P

You only need 2 surely, Friday and Monday. You should never be hungover on your days off, be hungover at work and get paid for it, use your sick days for stuff you want to do.

Are you doing your app again Pablo?

I am not doing apps for individual festivals anymore.

Instead, I made an Android app called Festable which can be used with any clashfinder. Its the same as the apps I did previously, except now you just use one app for all the festivals. If the festival has a clashfinder the app can show you the timetabler and set up itinerary, reminders etc. Was used last w/e at Sunflowerfest. This w/e coming at ATN and I suppose Beatyard.

here it is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pablosoft.festable

No iPhone version and to be honest its not likely that I will get the time to make an iPhone version before EP, more likely 2019.

Thanks PabloandRoy

Invent an Uncle who has passed away in Scotland or something like that, or a relative, then you can pick a listing from RIP.ie to back yer claim. Good luck.

I love the new Robyn song. I know she won’t be announced but a girl can dream

Furious-Red

Just a guess

The Prodigy
Catfish and the Bottlemen
Stereophonics
Bastille or Imagine Dragons
Vampire Weekend

declanleo

I'm guessing aphex twin due to a new album

PinkCamper

Manic Street Preachers
Liam Gallagher
Years and Years

Maybe A-Ha

That'd be one hell of a coup - and is entirely possible too.

They've one European date lined up this year: End of the Road the same weekend. They've done a few shows in California and Japan and have one lined up for Chicago this week.

New album/song due out by the end of September (Sony financial statement confirmed 'new material' by that date) but they have remained very quiet on shows and material up to this point.

They were heavily rumoured for a European festival run earlier in the year after they confirmed their comeback and the End of the Road show but it didn't materialise so if EP was the only other one to have them, it'd be impressive.

All the promo material around the EOTR show describe it as a "UK exclusive show" this year so if they don't show up at EP, I would imagine it'll be 2019 before they're back over this side of the world.

That'd be an expensive enough one for them. In VW and the Prodigy you've two potential headliners.
Would be an incredible announcement though.

I'm gonna say
Manic Street Preachers
Robyn
Liam Gallagher
Sleaford Mods
Rudimental
The Academic

Seems to be a lot of shouts for Liam Gallagher. He is also booked every weekend until the end of September except EP weekend.

The Prodigy
Catfish and The Bottlemen
St Vincent
A-Ha

Is her Songkick accurate? https://www.songkick.com/artists/537844-robyn/gigography

1 gig last year, 3 the year before, just a few over 2014, 2015?

Would love to see her live but didn't realise it was that much of a rarity!!

New additions

D.Q

The Murder Capital on that Other Voices stage would be incredible.
Only recently discovered them, one of the most intense live bands you'll ever see. Genuinely menacing feel to them.

it'd make sense, but apparently he said at the gig in Malahide, and on twitter, that he'd be back in Ireland "next year"....

Poorside

Lost brothers are a good addition to OV, they’ll probably pop up on some other stage as well.

St Vincent was already announced

Columbia Mills were great last year.
Nice addition of Losties abd Seamus Fogarty too.

Take a couple of Arret, it should sort out any looseness.

I spent the last 30 minutes listening on Spotify only to realise they're not on spotify but some lad called Uncle Murda has an album called 'The Murder Capital'

Probably already mentioned but going by their Facebook page King Kong Company are nailed on to be announced.

ricerocket

Outside shot but hoping for Depeche Mode to be announced.

everlast75

I'd love some charlatans, James (albeit unlikely), Happy Mondays (or some 90's indie) Catfish & The Bottlemen, Vampire Weekend.
