2fm are about to ruin my day... That have a "massive announcement for the Rankin Wood stage for the Friday night"... Which will no doubt consist of an assault on the ears.

Jenny Greene? Or was she in the electric arena the last time?

Sadly that wouldn't rank as a big announcement in 2FMs world. Jenny Greene on the other hand...

When is this Jenny Greene announcement supposed to be?

they hand out microphones that aren't turned on to the crowd, so everyone can not sing along

After 2pm today - DJ Mo K in the studio so guessing its him doing a reprise of his show from last year.

What's a Mo K?

Story of hip hop rubbish no doubt

It’s mad, they change the announcement schedule a tiny bit and now I’m eyeing everything with suspicion.

This 2fm announcement craic isn’t adding to any of my hype at all at this stage.

It's announced,story of hip hop, the dj said she cried at the show last year and the guy did too, óh god pass the bucket

With all the music out there why have the same show two years in a row. Slope getting slipper by the day.

Still nothing confirmed to save my Friday night down there

Very True

The sub-headliners are shocking

Another quick question if ye don’t mind. Eco camping I have 2 friends who now can’t go and I have their codes. Can they be used by someone else or does it have to be names attached?

That pile of pox story of hip hop was rammed last year. All those fools standing there while young fathers killed it in the next tent. Raging they aren’t playing again this considering they playing all over Europe with massive attack and sold out the Academy earlier this year.

On the other other hand.... is that an Elvis tribute... I’d be so happy

I'd be very confident of young father's playing, they will be in Stradbally with Massive Attack so expect that they'll form part of a 3rd main announcement or be a surprise act somewhere over weekend

Not my type of stuff at all but they were utterly epic and would merrily toddle along to see them again.

What's the basis for this?

Young Fathers haven't toured with Massive Attack since 2016 as far as I know. They're playing Electric Fields that weekend so not out of the question but just wondering if I missed something!

And even looking at Massive Attack's set lists, they play 'Voodoo in my Blood' live but usually without live input from Young Fathers (as per setlist.fm at least!)

They were definitely playing with them this summer. Maybe just at the festivals they are both booked for? Either way I'd love to catch them if playing missed it last year
