Just been to the Starsailor reunion show and they were absolutely phenomenal. Had the Charlatans guitarist playing with them for most of the set. They would make Thursday all good again.

Good call!!!! They are supporting James on their UK tour, who are playing Beni onthe on the Thursday night. Fingers crossed!

Steve Guppy and Muzzy. Whats wrong with you two saddos. People are trying to use this thread for info. Seriosly need to get a life and stop obsessing over this page, its embarrassing

To be fair, it's a forum for festivals, why take it so seriously? Aint like they've hijacked the main FIB website and are withholding info?

Yeah they're outside nightclubs filled with festival goers?

Few clubs and bars have stuff going on in the town too, tbh with you I'd just go out and see where people are giving out leaflets for and check them out see the atmosphere. All the bars and clubs in the town seemed decent last year, club called vox was good, free to get in alright music, bar called fraggle rock had a band in there and some other one called Casablanca or something was good as well. Never went to the one opposite, Harlem or something?

Harlem was really good last year they had a progerganda night in there. There is another club right next to it aswell that had a good night on the Tues/Weds.

Turns out no one gives a fuck.

Furthermore, if that info has come from the website owner sharing their details that brings up data protection issues...

Good job it came from him posting his own Twitter account.

No need to sound so butthurt; although I guess you're probably another fully grown man who's made a forum account named after an ex-footballer to spend your day chatting shite.

I prefer the ex footballers to anyone else, least they've got a sense of humour.

The two im talking about are directly opposite the festival on the other side of the dual carriageway by the aqua park, cant miss them tbh and they got lively from 11ish until daylight by my somewhat hazy memory. They were really good though i remember that much!

Cheers. Think I'll check them out after having a few in the town.

fraggle rock in town normally a good nite on the Wednesday

Might as well check it out. Last year we got a taxi into town and there was a dj stand set up in a back lane. We just stopped there all night.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
