I wonder will the roof on the Heineken stage help with the noise bleed?

Is Jerry Fish in the same place as usual?

Looks the same size to me, but then again my judgement as EP is questionable.

Mentioned a few times on here that TM release small batch of tickets Thur or Fri, is that rumour, wishful thinking or fact?

Just a question on taxis, would it be easy enough to get back into portloaise post EP (1 am ish) on Friday and Saturday via taxi?

Assuming they have some sort of rank there?

I believe Jerry himself said he had a bigger tent this year. He'll fill it too with that line-up.

Lads, huge question here. I won tickets (yeah, I know, jammy bstrd). However, I just realised the person I'm bringing has Fibro and would have qualified for disability camping. However, it's closed. Anyone know if they shoot them an email or if we rocked up to the access area (which they say on the site) what would happen? Cheers.

I'd definitely try an email, explain that you won tickets last minute, I'm sure they'll try accommodate accommodate your mate in the circumstances, good luck

Hi lads and ladies, I’m getting dropped up by a friend and was wondering where is the drop off point and is it far from the main entrance? Eco campsite is near the main entrance too isnt it? Thank you

Drop off at green. Head along the road (white) enter wristband exchange take next right after bag searches, head to yellow X. Will take about 30min excluding queues, more if carrying.

Try emailing access@electricpicnic.ie. In all fairness, I'd say they'd be pretty understanding given the circumstances. I'd also message them on their various social media accounts, bound to get a reply off one.

Asked about weather and ground

“Its been mainly dry but its cold enough in the night at times there was a bit of drizzle on and off yesterday but no heavy downpours.”

There’s bound to be some decent stuff in Trailer Park, Salty dog and the EA tomorrow.
Five grand Stereo are in Salty Dog after KKC, well worth a look.

Roadhouse doors > ash > murder capital > 2fm story of hip hop/ The brummies > kendrick > bitch falcon

That's what my night is looking like but no doubt i'll have to change with tomorrows announcements

Thursday or Friday usually?

Just another lurker finally on to say fair dues on all the sound advice. Really helped put a few things in my mind to bed!

Raging about the Jorja/Nina clash as whichever I pick basically determines how that night is going to go. Might just be swayed by Nina as I'll have a fair few pals going there.

Could I ask what is meant by the diversion from Vicarstown? Hoping to land in Green car park for the shortest walk to Pink Moon.
