[I Bleed Black]

Anyone heading down on sunday to try and sneek in for MBV? It would never have occured to me but someone mentioned it a few days ago and it's got me thinking

 

[Unicron]

A friend of mine is down there putting up the MyHabs and says it's not rained there since Monday, the site is a little damp but not too bad.

She also says that an odd tribal rivalry has cropped up between the people putting up tents and people putting up MyHabs.

are they definitely on sunday night? might have a go at sneaking in...

 

[hermie]

are they definitely on sunday night? might have a go at sneaking in...

I had heard that they were playing saturday but they're down to play sunday on the website and on any provisional timetables that I've seen. You should definately give it a lash. Just keep a small bribe handy. You can kip in with me and Tara!

 

[I Bleed Black]

Ya I saw sunday too. I would gladly drop a fifty quid bribe just to get in to see them.

 

[Unicron]

Was someone asking about buses back on Sunday?

La Scala Theatre Stage
Sunday 31st August
6pm - 7.30pm Henry Rollins

I'm not a fan of his stand-up/spoken word routine but is it not a bit strange they didn't have this on the line-up?

 

[Bold Lump]

So after considerable effort and plenty of help from others. I'm now only after

Neutronix
Bernard Shaw
515

with or without them i'll be posting everything else up sometime after lunch

 

[Unicron]

Tent pegs. Where? In or around Dublin/Maynooth/Naas. I presume your common or garden Marathon/Lifestyle sports wouldn't stock them.

Every year I come home from this I come back with fewer and fewer and I'm not sure I've got enough to cover it this time.

[Unicron]

what about the camping shops around capel street.... duuuuhhhhhh

I thought they only had sex shops on Capel St.

Thanks.

 

[Space]

Great Outdoors/Millets and most outdoor shops will have pegs.

 

[La La]

they sell pegs at the picnic, innit.

 

[potlatch]

Indeed, and biodegradable ones I'll wager.

The Blasket Islands has one old Peig. At least it used to.
