Billie Eilish listed as 8pm Friday on her Spotify page, no stage mentioned but would assume main.

Don't know how reliable Spotify is for times either!

When you see the final line up, you feel the loss of OV. It's a big miss for me. Lots of real low key quality there over the last few years.

Huge loss, noticed immediately the lineup came out it was missing, contacted them immediately, and they said they were concentrating on “other projects”.

I spent more time in there on my last EP 2014, than anywhere else,went to some of the “banter” events too, I think that was the first year of it, and lineups were not announced around mid afternoon each day.

I think every artist playing EP is listed for 8pm on the Friday. It's a default time.

Ah, looks like you're right. Even the festival itself is listed to start Friday 8pm - my bad!

I was at the Roadhouse Doors last year and none of you showed up, some of you were still travelling at the time but then I got to meet scruff monkey at Chvrches.

I'll be there this year to the right of the mixing desk wearing a Hawaiian shirt and towing a bag of cans. :-)

We live in hope for the free flow staying in Salty Dog.

If not, I'll be like a reverse El chapo smuggling cans in

Did any of you talk to me at SD last year about Joe Strummer? I was weating a black Strummerville hoody.

Just remembered now after reading bodhrandudes post :-)

Oi. I met Mucker at the Roadhouse doors last year, advertised myself well in advance in a bright orange Pavement tshirt. You can only do so much. We'll give it another bash this time round.

I seem to be spending most of my day refreshing the Electric Picnic website, hoping for another announcement like Freetown. Not being very productive, and its still only Tuesday of the week before EP!

Refreshing here and EP site whilst searching for drinks deals online... Can't see a lot of work being done in the next 10 days!

They posted about Maya Jane Coles and the set times for the Heinken stage around 4pm yesterday so there is still hope for today!!

I see Bilie eilish is down for the 3 nights on her website. I am coming home for the All Ireland on Sunday so I'm hoping she's the Fri or sat as my wife is mad to see her! I'll be in the bad books if she misses her

She's performing in Milan on the Saturday and Barcelona on the Monday.

Safest bet would be EP on the Friday - but maybe hold off telling the other half in case Billie springs a surprise!!

I still don’t understand how people get fooled by this. Only meet people face to face and only pay cash in hand and your chances of being scammed are so much lower. It’s not complicated.

If the fraud crowd track his IP address he'll be caught for sure.

I initially gave him the benefit of the doubt and thought it was a misunderstanding, but the clown used his real name and details?!! How did he think he'd get away with it??

Hey all,

I'm going to EP this year on a performer ticket instead of a regular one. Does anyone know if that brings any perks with it at all?

You can tell impressionable young people that youre the fifth member of various bands and let them fawn over you

Or just rock up to the office on his business cards :pac:

Clearly not the brightest young lad - given the line of work he appears to be in, a fraud conviction (or even allegation TBH) could cause him serious professional problems - and deservedly so.
