    I don't think they sold 5000 tickets on year 1.

    I wasn't there so couldn't say but was told 3000 or thereabouts?

    There's a Clashfinder up for this. Just needs stage times to be announced to make it right.

    They're still listing Donal Lunny. I thought he was recovering from surgery and that's why The Bothy Band had cancelled their NCH shows?

    Yeah wondering this too although it is only a 45 minute set. I have to admit they are a bit scatty releasing the timetables so near to the event.

    The weather has been nice here in Galway I'm hearing decent reports from crew on-site that its nice there too, hopefully the weather stays consistent for the festival weekend.

    They might be on last, but they're not headlining. There were lots of complaints about the headliners finishing really late last year so they've obviously taken that feedback on board and moved things around.

    Right folks that's me crashing out for the night, bags packed and off in the morning to Dublin and getting picked up and driving to the festival site. Won't be online again till following Monday and I'll give a Boards review and then my blog review. 😊 Hope to meet some of you there.

    I'd imagine they meant to type we don't have a campervan ticket?

    I phrased that terribly..Thanks for the replies.

    We have a Campervan ticket and each of us have a weekend ticket so we should be fine.

    If it's half as much fun as last year it should be great…

    Last year was fantastic, the only thing to complain about was the weather and even that looks like it might play along this time.

    Roll on Friday :)
