    Quite enjoying listening to Ólafur Arnalds, very minecrafty :pac:

    Had a blast of him last night on my way home from work, along with a few from Kiasmos. His stuff is perfect for a late afternoon chill out!

    My favourite genre after "tetrislike".

    You know that he is half of Kiasmos?

    He fits in the Nils Frahm spot from last year. In fact there is some music on which those two have collaborated also.

    That would be a big surprise, be a bold move to say that so early though if there we zero truth to it.

    Ah yeah, I'd take it at face value myself. Would be a bit surprised if it sold out this week is all but they know ticket sales better than any of us!

    I know it's something you'd say to sell more tickets but ATN are advising people to pick up tickets this week as close to selling out, apparently. Just an FYI.

    Between this and EP seems to be huge demand for festivals lately. Think Castlepalooza had changed its dates to May from August bank holiday before cancelling but guess some people going to that could be snapping up tickets for this instead.

    Wow.. :eek:
    I'm happy with my two, thanks :D
    But never would have expected it to sell out this quickly.

    I can't view that link, I'm not on facebook. Does it say selling out?

    I live and work in the area and anyone I mention it to are all "heard it was great last year, so am going this year".

    I can see it selling out. Would be surprised if it were this early though. Maybe it will "sell out" and then during the early summer a final batch will appear. That's a bit cynical of me i know.

    just looking at how it is phrased..

    "Hello...we would strongly advise picking up your tickets this week as we are on course to sell out all tickets. "

    OK.. this does not mean it will be soon sold out. It means if we keep up this rate of sales we will sell out before the festival.

    The this week bit implies it will be soon, otherwise why specify it at all?

    I don't think ATN are necessarily the cause of this. Lots of festivals both here and in the UK have cancelled 2019. Bestival is the most obvious, but they had a disaster last year resulting in them financially sinking. But Festival No. 6 has cancelled as well.

    In Ireland, Arcadian Fields in Dundalk and Swell in Arranmore are not going ahead this year, together with Castlepalooza and Townlands as you mention. They can't all be down to ATN.

    Re: Body and Soul, the general consensus seems to be that the lineup has been declining in the last few years. Even though I liked last year's lineup, it's hard to argue with the fact that there are less big bands coming to Body and Soul. But maybe for their 10 year anniversary they will fight back.

    It says "On course to sell out". Which could easily mean that they have sold 10k now and plan to sell the other 10k between now and August.

    I'm not so don't take my word as gospel. But their website hasn't been updated since last year's festival:

    http://www.arcadianfield.ie/

    I would've thought they'd at least have sent something out by now!

    TBH, I'm amazed Castlepalooza went on as long as it did

    Why do they say register future interest here, after emphasising that there will be NO MORE put on sale?
    I didn't think it was possible to cancel a Campervan pass (or any other tickets), so they can't be in case somebody asks for a refund..

    To guage how much interest there is for camper van spaces so that can increase capacity and accommodate everyone next year.

    This lineup hits all the right spots for me. Delighted with FJM as he's one of my favourites. They've picked all the best Irish rock acts and mixed in with some top end electronic acts. The wailers on a sunny sunday would be glorious.

    Also I don't see much of a point in comparing EP and ATN. Both aiming at different markets. EP nowadays is going more for the masses and ATN is a little more niche. Hence the festival is half the size of EP. Comparing lineups doesn't really work for me. A festival is more about the environment with the lineup being the cherry on top. An amazing lineup doesn't make a great festival and visa versa.

    Kiasmos/Olafur is super. He was in Ireland last year on the Weekend of ATN (for Beatyard) and I was hoping they'd get him to this to do something with Nils Frahm as they collaborate a lot. A few more of his label mates from Erased Tapes would be nice.

    Hot Chip have never let me down when they're doing their own, full band stuff. Patti Smith is a force of nature. National and FJM, I'd definitely go see, but if there's something more interesting on I'd be okay missing out. I'll always make an effort to see Albarn too. Disappointed Leftfield is the DJ thing, as Live they are great.

    Very decent line up, couple of more good bands, djs and some good non music things and it'll be great.

    Well they are a premium band, also its their only show in Ireland this year (so far) granted they do play quite a bit but always put on a great show so no complaints from me.

    I am nearly sure 2 of them were there but in saying that they were on quite late and I could have been seeing double by that stage :D was advertised as Kiasmos DJ set

    First time I saw them was when they played EP first time in 2005. I thought they were fantastic. I have seen them a few times since but never quite as excellent as that first time.
