Electric Picnic 2018 **Discussion Only // No Ticket Sales** [Part 1]

Dany Hitch

Work finished: that had to be longest H&S briefing session I've ever had to endure. Now home to pack.

See y'all at The Roadhouse Doors tomorrow afternoon: I'll be the Screech Powers lookalike in the Hawaiian shirt.

Have a great picnic everyone!

SEALED only. Otherwise it could be vodka etc. After 1AM work away with boozey ones up to 500ml.

Just put the top in your pocket before you walk in.

Those, including myself, needing to get into Green Car Park for Pink Moon, can we share a list of emails to get notified of who gets in and how? Wether through Athy, or Vicarstown?

Then it's no longer sealed so confiscated unless it's empty which kinda defeats the purpose :-)

If it’s a water bottle for water then this works.

For booze it’s different of course.

Eh, I'm not giving out my email but I will post here once I'm in. We're aiming to be in Stradbally around 10:30ish so keep an eye on this thread around that time.

Just getting in the mood

The Parish King

Not sure if they’ve been discussed much here, but Silverbacks at 3pm on Saturday in Jerry Fish should be worth going to.

Saw them in the Button Factory a few months back and they put on a good show (lead singer really gives it socks), and Dirty Money is a great tune for those who love their guitar bands!

Any Berlin bunker location yet? I like how hush hush it has been kept 😂

Just trying one more time here, if anyone knows of someone looking to swap a couple of weekend tickets with family camping for a couple of weekend tickets with normal camping please let me know. Thanks.

Just finished dinner in the campervan arena, bit chilly now already.
If anyone is driving a camper down, the VMS sign when you come off the m7 is incorrect, tells campers to go straight through the roundabout where you're supposed to take the first left towards stradbally - same route as other years.

Someone on the overheard at Body and soul page on Facebook said it's beside the salty dog but not sure how reliable that is

Bag packed, as a non-camper it's easy. Now for a few vinos with herself before I abandon her for the weekend. If you see any of the t-shirts in the attached and are feeling so inclined say hello to a Billy no mates. Enjoy everyone.

Just dropped off some early entry campers. Was heading for the yellow but that isn't open tonight. Only letting in Staff on the Timahoe Road tonight! Had to go through the town and had to drop off at Green. The only one open tonight. Tailbacks.. Rang the guards and he said yellow would be open tomorrow. My feeling is they will only let you into Red tomorrow and leave the rest of the green for Sunday arrivals... Could be wrong and might fill up the Green first?! Why couldn't we be told this on the website??? Stradbally only 15mins away from me and it took 1.5hrs round trip...

Heard on the news this evening due to roadworks in some places motorists using the motorway from Cork/Dublin should expect to be delayed longer than usual this year.

Fairly gutted I'm not going but enjoy it folks and keep us posted here over the weekend.
