Hi Guys!!!!

Officially in single digits, on night shift and have severe EP butterflies!!!

Like others I am not overly excited by the line up, to be fair EP could announce a one man band in a tent and I would turn up for the craic! Live for this weekend each year, a place like no other!!!

Any one else getting pre session jitters??? :eek::eek::eek::eek:

CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!

I remember Ed Sheerin in (I think) Electric Arena. He was rubbish.

I think Three said last week that they would be announcing their Made by Music stage today didnt they?

I presume the Made by Music stage will be acts from Three's Made by Music initiative where they put Irish acts together to make new songs, videos, etc.

This year, they've two tracks out on it - one from David Kitt, Fehdah and Kean Kavanagh, and one from Soule, Elaine Mai and Sorcha Richardson. Are any of those on the bill yet? There's a third track on the way, I think but I dunno who is involved.

Last year, they did Jafaris, Saint Sister and Kormac. Think the Saint Sister track was quite successful.

Because they do paint ball there during the year and other outdoor activities in the stradbally estate. Obviously not during the weekend of EP though the idea of shooting some hunzos in the face does sound appealing.

As a hunzo I was going to pretend to be shocked and appalled, then thought about how much fun it would be shooting paintballs at the 18 year olds in bucket hats and the 'yah, I'd just really recommend doing a summer in Thailand, it's where I got these trousers that I've been wearing since Friday, y'knowwhatimeanloike?' crowd. I can't be a hypocrite. Just make sure you shoot glitter at me too.

The 'loike' part really painted an excellent picture there!

I'll be floating around Harvest Moon and Freetown mostly with glitter and UV paint for anyone who wants a splash of colour. Adulting gets boring, being a total hun in Stradbally livens it up a bit.

Sounds like the Play The Picnic stage under a different name

Only took them a month to actually think to apologise. Won't be getting my money again that's for sure. I noticed they said capacity will not increase. I think they are actually decreasing capacity as I doubt they would get that license again.

Still no announcement Today... What we thinking are going to get another big name (electronic) or just some fillers if anything at all?

Has anybody sold a tent in Pink Moon on toutless? I have a 2-man tent to sell as we managed to get a 4-man tent instead this year. Just wondering what's the best way to go about it? Selling gig tickets is one thing when you have physical tickets to hand over to the buyer. All I have from Pink Moon is an email confirmation.

I'm looking to buy pink moon tent if you still have it?

If anyone is interested I have a 2 man Bell tent in pink moon to sell. Cost me 470, will take 450 for it. Adverts and donedeal aren't taking any EP ads this year. Just can't go myself, I have the email confs., cr card, etc etc and can meet to show it's genuine. Cheers.

Is this still available?

Court123!

As you can probably tell I'm looking for a two man pink moon tent if anyone has one going please!

Not much of a suprise there, I still think it'll be more of a corporate version of other voices but hopefully I'm wrong. Some decent acts in there all the same. Cassia do really sound like vampire weekend and the Scratch are a good act also.

Yeah I agree, give us something that's not been announced already and who hasn't played the festival before.
