Electric Picnic 2012 - Day 3
On the final day, I spent a lot more time in the Body & soul area, enjoying the sun, starting with a concert from Eleventy-four - which I had previously seen in Bourkes. An amazing choir entertained us in the afternoon, before I catch up with some Tipperary friends.

Electric Picnic 2012 - Day 2
On the second day I had my eye on the cure who did not disappoint me.
The day started very well with a full string orchestra playing the full "Dark Side of the moon" in a stunning fashion, before wrapping up with some tune from Stevie Wonder.

Electric Picnic 2012 - Misc
So in the end it was the best thing ever. The weather was brilliant. The bands were fantastic. I saw the Cure for the first time, along with Sigur Ros. I bumped randomly into friends once in a while of the weekend, only to loose sight of them on the crowd hours later.
Did we mention the weather was brilliant? And the people and the artist, the food....
Sorry if you weren’t there !

Electric Picnic 2012 - Day 1
So in 2012, I finally set foot in the Electric Picnic ( http://electricpicnic.ie/ ) , the yearly Irish music festival held in Stradbally Hall.
After setting camp in the morning - I arrived quite early, avoiding all the traffic, people had promised me - i went for a quick around the place, even found the salty dog.
The first band was on the main stage: Alabam Shakes ... good, but as I enter a tent I got stunned by the performance of a fuming "Willis Earl Beal".
The first day finished with the XX tremendous and an unexpected volcanic and eruptive performance from Sigur Ros to close the night.
