    Nipped out after Sugar Kisses. Up the front for the Strokes. They better deliver.

    They will. Then that's it for me as on the road early tomorrow.

    Keep providing updates on how disappointing Sunday turns out to be.

    It'll be the best EP Sunday ever. Guaranteed. And I'll keep you informed.

    Definitely.
    Sons of Kemet. Completely mental, completely brilliant. I have never bopped so much to a sax and tuba, and two drum kits before.
    Foil, Arms and Hogg were brilliant in the comedy tent

    Sounds like any one I have talked to tonight will end up at Lamb at Body and Soul. I will be there

    Justin has had a few too many sherbets me thinks,he looks rat arsed!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,354 ✭✭✭nocoverart


    I never thought I'd get that 'getting old' feeling, but I'm actually quite content in not slumming it at EP this year and streaming Tool's new Album with a few cold ones instead. The Strokes near the front would be amazing though TBF.

    He's been rat arsed for 18 years.

    And don't they sound amazing? Loving it.

    Yeah lovely tribute Mac made to the late great Pete de Freitas at the start of the song.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,723 ✭✭✭Stillill42


    Julian is a patronising prick. I like the band, though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭hullabulloo


    Couldn't make ep this year so went to see the strokes in London at all points east preventative measure, please let's know what ye made of their set, as fans and as most will be, hard to explain.

    Lovely Louis...

    The Strokes, a masterclass of music and comedy.

    Julian is one funny guy.

    It was like sitting through a Ricky Gervais comedy.

    Great setlist though and band sounded awesome.

    The Cutter, Killing Moon and Lips like Sugar...an awesome finale to a great gig.
    Gotta be up there with best act of the weekend


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,678 ✭✭✭Mucker46


    Another great day. Echo best gig so far. CATQ were damn good too. Somebody's child had a great set in the fabulous 3 stage. Left strokes early the "banter" between songs did my head in but the band were awesome. Missed thumper but saw them before relly like them. Including a small few half sets saw 13 bands today. Thats why the picnic is still the one for me. Roll on tomorrow.

    I just knew that one of the Boardsies would decipher what Mac was mumbling. Congrats Mike Guide.

    Was at that gig too.. Breaking my heart to miss them tonight! Have to say though, I was a bit disappointed by them that day. Maybe my expectations were too high, or maybe the sound wasn't great.. I dunno.. I've seen them I think five times, but that definitely wasn't up there..

    Could possibly be due to the fact that anyone trying to follow Johnny Marr would pale in insignificance. I almost wept during How Soon is Now. Was hugging strangers!

    Can not for the life of me find Berlinhaus. I know its meant to be on the way out past salty. Does it only open at a late time?

    Rankins really delivered last night. Theee fantastic sets in a row, Duff then !!!Brittany!!!then Echo. The dodgy sound quality during Duffs set solved for the latter two but Echo wins with those last four songs.

    Would have loved a longer set from YER WAN.

    Went to see strokes after. Tight as **** that band. Hit sack then


  • Registered Users Posts: 831 ✭✭✭CFC007


    Going down around lunch time if anyone is leaving with a band.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 CantonaGod


    Strokes absolutely rocked. Julian though....what a dick.(even for a rock star!) Hard to Explain the highlight for me.

    Sunday morning festival pig flesh sandwich and black coffee is best pig flesh sandwich and black coffee.

    The not quite living dead are now getting up and staggering to their camping chairs where they will sit wall-e like in the morning sun waiting for the great fireball to push heat back into their alcohol riddled cadavers.

    For all the eco messaging., there’s some scummy ****ers in this place. Rubbish strewn around like a fly tippers happy finish.
