The glade is a mud pit when it rains but even so its notoriously hard to get tickets. I'm still waiting to hear reports though it only monday and people are probably still digging their cars out of the mud and waiting for the drugs to wear off.

Have to say their Electric Picnic performance last year was top drawer though

Ha.... ive never seen the phrase "maybe irish organise things better" in a sentence before!!! hahahaha

Were not exactly one for our success stories... but your right, Electric picnic is an exception in festivals here. If they played oxegen youd be looking at a weekend of bad facilities and bad sound.

it was very good.
no mud or not enough to put you off.
the weather held out.
the set was festival fav's but thats what the large crowd seemed to want.
between stars sounded really good.
sound system could have been louder but if you got in there it was more than ok.
bars,food and site were all excellent.
haven't seen as many dreadlocks,comedy hats and monged out hipppies for years !
