So it seems a few people have tickets already

I can't recommend this festival enough, one of the best I have been to over the years.

I should be going up a bit early (straight from the IOW so pretty much travelling the whole length of the country as I hope to spend a couple days exploring the area. Perhaps get the boat over to Stornoway and camp overnight up there.

So anyone else fancy the trip up north for this one?

Last year there was quite a few eFestival people there.. no doubt a camp will happen nearer the time

I've not told wullie72 or mr me that I've bought myself a ticket yet!

Alas, we will be taking the low road from the East Midlands, but I'll be in Scotland afore ye!

[butchwade]

We went to see the Vatersay Boys in Edinburgh last month, closed my eyes and I was back at Loop.

I'd like to see the Lorelei playing in the tent......if only to see you on the bodhran

The missus and I are hoping to get there again this year, but it will be the line-up that makes us commit. If we make it her ma n pa are gonna go up in their campervan and we'll probably drive up through the week too, avoiding "difficulties" with Ryanair and airports.

Names in the line-up I'm looking for: Dreadzone, Alabama 3 - either of them and we're there.

Really hope we make...

[butchwade]

Hope to see you up there Phil!

[butchwade]

Speaking of lineups.......................

Belle & Sebastian haven't done any live shows for ages, I'd LOVE to see them at the Loop

[llcoolphil]

Aye, on my lonesome! Was thinking of heading to Oban on the Wednesday and then on to Ullapool on the Thursday morning. You coming with me?

[butchwade]

Yeah be good to see you again too. You SSW this year? And I trust Bearded Theory is in your plans - you could practically walk there!

[Paul ™]

Bearded Theory is currently a work in progress - 'er indoors isn't sure yet!

[irons]

Dependant on line-up. Me, Rab and Rabs family are thinking are doing this. Probably the best festival of the last summer. I'll tank a lift of them.
