Anyone heard rumours bout who's playing? Hopefully Damien.I reckon the stage The Thrills were on would really suit him.I think it was Rising (in the tent) although he was good on Main Stage. |

guess it's a wee bit weird to see him play before an audience of 50 000 peops.

All the usuall Irish acts will be there im sure. The Bellies, Kitt, Casey, Hayes .....the list goes on... I'd love to see Dave Mathews Band there. Speaking of Bowie, i also heard that he was asked in an interview what bands/artists he was listening to that people should look out for. He spoke highly of "Stand". They're an Irish band from Tallaght. Very good band. After hearing of this comment, they invited him to a gig in the US, and he showed up. He told them he might be looking for them to come on tour with him. Which is amazing for them! </font>Edited by: daol20

Gonna be totally organised this year!! We're hiring a van between us, instead of driving down. And we're gonna sleep in the carpark, rather than in that jungle they call a campsite! (Nightmare!) Think i'll pay for a camping ticket though, so i can go in and out to the van. Cos withought the camping ticket you cant get back in when you leave.
And im not getting so wasted this time, that i miss half the gigs i intend on seeing! </font>[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img] Edited by: daol20

I'm gonna go to Glasto again this year but I'll definatly make it to Witnness unless I'm totally broke.
I live 15 minutes away so I don't need to camp. I'll be driving though so no drinking/illicet substances for me. I missed out of the point last year but I would pay any amount of money to see Bowie at this point and if the Pixies are there then God you can strike me down dead if you want the second that they go off stage.

I got it second hand from a journalist that Bowie is confirmed and the pixies are 90% certain.

Just checked my shoe box of ticket stubs and festival programmes, and last years gig was the 12th and 13th of July.
But i've heard that they're gonna turn it into a 3 day gig. Dont know if thats happening this year though. Although its turning into a tradition that the open the campsites on the Friday, and the unoffical party starts then.</font>

I was stuck in work that Friday. 3 of my mates went down to set up early. I was listening to all the updates on "Pet Sounds", and was leppin to get down there!! I was working the night shift at the time. 7pm till 7am. I got off early at 5am and a few of us drove down at around 8am. Felt like i missed half the party...</font>

Jerry Fish was EXCELLENT on the friday night, fair dues to them for playing actually, i'd never been to a festival the night before and i reckon the friday night was the best part... that and cold water. But this year... the f**king pixies.
