Im going down on Friday morning but i havn't looked at the list yet to see the times, cant view the website in work. I wanna see Mogwai, Jape, Give a man a kick and Redneck Manifesto after that i`ll be happy to stroll around and have a look at anything. I am getting excited now though. Just looking at inflatable matresses in Lidl, they have some camping gear cheap this week if anyone needs some stuff.

I hate to break the bad news but Tapes'n'Tapes are no longer listed in the line up on the website. It looks like they've gone the way of Tom Vek, Os Mutantes and My Morning Jacket.

RTE are meant to be showing coverage of the event on the Saturday and Sunday, only breaking for the Irish match and the news.

Well they must have put it back up because I double checked the line up at 11.30 this morning and I couldn't find their name anywhere.

Just checked my tent this afternoon, no mould (ah, Glastonbury '03, I can still smell the tent I was sleeping in), all pegs and supports accounted for. I'm all set.
