Sorry to be picky but shouldn't threads about Forbidden Fruit Festival/Electric Picnic/Life Festival be in "International Festivals"?

On here you get communities building up within each sub forum, and he's just letting other like minded folk who he's talked to on here know about it. I doubt many folk from here would have noticed it in the international festivals section.

Well I can understand why he mentioned it, RockNess is essentially a dance music festival with a bit of indie and rock thrown in, although more noticeably pop orientated this year, Life is also a dance festival except uniquely the indie and rock is replaced by some of the best reggae bands and sounds.  I was at the 2008 festival in Galway and Max Romeo and Finlay Quaye played different nights of the festival, whilst there was a mix of techno, dubstep, minimal something or the other??? psi trance and loads of other stuff in about 5 other stages or marquees.  Its pitched like a smaller Electric Picnic (RockNessy type do)with a capacity for 3,000, lovely food stalls and a decent bar not sponsored by Carling nor Heineken, lovely vibe.  And to Kowalski I posted in the International festivals thread but didnt the organisers announce the line up over a month late, so Window Licker beat me to it.

Some pics from 2008.

This is exactly it man. The reason I posted it on here is because I've been to Rockness a couple of times and have a bit of banter with people who frequent the Rockness forum. I love Rockness, the vibe and also the people and Scotland itself.

All I'm doing is giving like mind people a look at whats on across the pond i.e. similar festivals and the opportunity to check out Ireland and what it has to offer.

Like you say it wouldn't have been noticed in International Festivals.

I see its been moved regardless! I smell a rat

Just got a volunteering job at the fest, so looking forward to this next weekend, Woot!  Can someone give some info or heads up on some of the duties expected of a volunteer?, I have a rough idea as Ive been to a few festivals now, but this would be my first time volunteering.

Will someone else post comments on this please otherwise Ill keep posting so it stays at the top of the international festivals forum, I will refuse this festival to be ignored, will just not stand for it.
