So according the eFestivals news article, the first acts have been announced.

Anyone heading over for this?

Booked my flights last month, been meaning to go for about the last 5 years but took the plunge eventually.

Any tips appreciated

I went over last year and it was superb. We never bought an official badge and just went to the unofficial shows. It can easily be done on the cheap.

Hopefully you have accomodation sorted already because transport is a nightmare.

If you have any questions I would be happy to help although I am no expert

Staying with a mate who lives there, he gets passes etc too as always puts 1 or 2 acts up in his house for the festival.

He's had Skinny Lister there amongst others in the past.

Baby in Vain and Happyness are worth checking out.

Moon Duo and The Twilight Sad are cool, too.

Really excited for this now, 6 weeks to go on Friday.

12 days am out there for, so got a few days either side of the festival to chill and explore the area.

Been a couple of announcements since last posted here, looking forward to catching as much music as I can (unlike what I do at UK Festivals).

www.do512.com is a good listings website to keep an eye on all the free parties.

The strange brew 4 one at Hotel Vegas on the Monday will be worth a visit before the music festival starts officially
