Can you imagine the ammount of skangers that line up is going to attract? At least it'll keep a lot of the scum from going to Electric Picnic just to get off their face to Basement Jaxx.
Very true, Stroller. Chavs/skangers/tracksuits and a whole assortment of Dublin spivs taking over the beautiful Belvedere estate depresses me deeply. I'm from Mullingar and the idea of an 'Electric Picnic' type festival on my doorstep seemed interesting. Until I saw the line-up. Any claim that MCD are making that this is their version of EP is a sick joke.
MCD are simply throwing another festival with safe, crowd-pleasing acts so that they make yet another bucketload of money. That's why we should cherish the Electric Picnic even more because Aiken/John Reynolds are really making a massive effort to provide an alternative type of festival for this country. Even if the line-up is slightly disappointing this year, it's still vastly superior to Poxegen, Hi-Fi et al. |
