Made this from my own Spotify list, just realised it leaves out the cover bands.

I'm up at 6 every working day, and now my brain naturally wakes at that time, even after a night of alcohol.
That's one thing I'm dreading about the picnic

Rigor Mortis

jesus, just took a look on adverts.ie. They clearly got their booking and hype right this year. 370 offered for a single ticket

Estelle Costanza

Massive Attack
These Charming Men
Field Music
Garbage
Gomez
Interskalactic
The bionic rats
Nina Kraviz
Ejeca
BSC Soundsystem
Nigel Wood

A very leisurely picnic in store for me. As long as I see Massive Attack I'll be happy.

bodhrandude

Pissing rain in portlaoise

Rigor Mortis

Rain in Portlaoise is our friend now. Fewer broken tent pegs and broken wrists trying to get them in.

PinkCamper

Looking out the window and thanking the universe EP is not this weekend. Pouring rain in Dublin this morning and so chilly

Stillill42

Ah, These Charming Men and Mick Flannery clashing. That's the start of it now.

Seems to have changed in the last hour ! Yr better now while accuweather slightly worse. Still probably some uncertainty overall I'd say

I normally am too. We can have the office workers early morning meet up and hangover chat. I'll be in eco

Fatfrog

Another tip for those who suffer with cold is a product called hot hands, available in some pharmacies possibly Tesco. Pack of 10 is €10'ish.

They come in sealed pairs, when you want heat open the package, a chemical reaction starts when exposed to air. Insert in gloves and boom!!!

That weather outside today and driving home Friday night from work is scaring me... Please God we get a bit of luck.. Can deal with the odd shower but not a full weekend of it

Colostomy bag?

Any recommendations on pop up tents, or maybe a thread consensus. I was going to buy this one today

https://www.regatta.ie/malawi-2-man-pop-up-festival-tent-red-grey/

But a couple of argos.uk reviews are saying it's not waterproof at all, even though it does have a 3000mm hydrostatic head count...

Thanks!

3000 mm is the key number in an affordable tent.
They are gonna be slow to say waterprooof in this country

Funny looking at everyones list it looks like the "meet up" will happen a good few times over the weekend and we won't know it..
So here's a question have you got a guilty pleasure in the line up? An act you might go see if at a loose end or a mate could twist your arm. For me it's probably Dua Lipa if nothing else is on and I'm in the main area I'd probably go check her out.

Mine will be Picture This.. One of the girls in my group is a huge fan and never seen them.. In fairness she has come with the rest of us to see all sorts over the past years so we'll have to repay this year..
