Where did this info come from?

I have noticed something lately that's got to me a little. Shows in Ireland are being announced a few days before the tickets go on sale. I've noticed this with alot of shows lately. Whatever happened the days when a show would be announced weeks and weeks in advance. Where will I get the money from?! Hehe...

Having had fifteen minutes to consider these developments I now realise that he's playing the shows on monday and tuesday to warm up before the big one on friday. This means that the band at the Picnic will in all probability be a 7-piece. Who will be following my example and going to all three shows? Furthermore to this how many of us will find it easier to reduce the number of shows to two, if the predicted timing clash between Devendra Banhart and Damo does in fact happen at the Electric Picnic?

Damien = good music
Devendra = good music

I may have to make a choice... Devendra won without me having to think.

sounds cool. though it's getting to me as there's so much live music around and none i could possibly attend. so yanka, i know how you feel (wrong place, wrong time, i suppose..)
i'll be staying in england (dover) at that time but i don't think i could afford a flight over as i'm somewhat broke (it's become something like a standard though, so i should be used to it by now )
so anyone who's going: make sure you enjoy it a lot! and even a little more than that for everyone of us that can't make it =)

Presale's are always shrouded in mystery. Usually they're just for people in the industry and stuff... the rest of us plebs have to wait. Not to worry though, the pre-sale ticket allocation won't be too serious, and as long as you're awake in time on saturday morning you shouldn't have a problem. Especially if you've set up a ticketmaster account prior to buying the tickets, it speeds things up quite a bit and it's fairly simple... like filling out the long forms prior to the crucial moment.

i have seen both live and would go for damien any day - maybe i was just unlucky with the night i saw devendra, but there was just something pretentious about his act - PLUS he and the band were so drunk already when they started playing, and it just got worse from then on - i left the gig, cause towards the end it sounded so horrible i couldn't stand it.

i also saw devendra at roskilde last year, and it wasn't all that. i dunno, i just feel there's something false about him; maybe i'm wrong.

damien, on the other hand, gave me the greatest musical experience of my life.

the last time i checked it cost about $650 round trip if you fly out of chicago to dublin around those dates.. but then you have lodging and expenses to think about (unless you have a friend to stay with) so i bet it could easily get up over $1000 in just a few days..

it's still very tempting though, isn't it?

Got my tickets :-) Looks like standing at Vicar St ..... so that'll increase the capacity a fair bit.

Better when it's unreserved seating at those lovely tables...

I've got 3. Unreserved seating it great if you're willing to put in the effort to que early to get a good spot. I got first row sitting in between where Damien and Lisa's mics were set up. Bo selecta was popular at the time and Damien made some joke to which Lisa responded (off mic) with a "HEE HEE" but no "shamon mother****er". If it's gonna be a rockier show then it'll be better standing.
