I took this photo of site this morning, have some more I will share later along with a detailed forecast but not looking too bad. Some drizzle tomorrow evening and Saturday morning then maybe some rain Sunday evening but it could hold off until late into the night. Now to try find a Sunday ticket

I have an entertainers ticket, do they actually ask when/where your playing?

Wow Pink Moon looks way more cramped than previous years, they have put the bigger 6 man tents (light green in middle) all bunched up... They were in rows last year

Very unlikely that they will ask you where/when. Just say you are with the ukulele collective.

They’ll ask you to sing your best song. Be ready.

if any hassle go with ... "I will have you know my good man, that I am a Professional Entertainer's Assistant!" Use your posh voice, be grand.

.. used to be called roadie or guitar tech or magician's assistant.

seems to be a glut of campervan/caravan tickets on donedeal, some below face value.

Some are genuine I feel, maybe camper fell through. But others were completely ripping the piss! One guy on face book started at €200 a few weeks back, he's down to below €100 now ha ha c$$t!

What was face value for this year's festival? It was only €55 odd a few years back?

I really don't understand how they can ''sell out'' as its basically free money to EP :pac:

Any update on the ol' Berlin Bunker!?

Ed: In one way I want to ''discover'' it as that is the idea but on the other hand I know I won't have my where with all to do that :P

Again, tell her to try a Donegal accent and just stroll through.

(this one could run for a while)

Maybe Gardai/licensing restriction on numbers for Thursday night?

And anyone know why the Body & Soul stage times are so late (excepting the main one)?

Folks, there's a band called Melts on the Trailer Park stage at 22:10 on Sunday, I'd recommend catching a bit of their set in between St Vincent & the Prodigy. I saw them support the Murder Capital and they're well worth the stroll over.
