Yes indeed the some big news coming out of Stradbally includes the news that The Vaccines are to pull out of the festival due to illness. Must not have gotten their inoculations before the tour. Hopefully there is a cure out there soon to get them back on the road.
Killing Joke also won’t be making to to Stradbally so you guys can write both them bands off your must see acts. However it’s not all bad news today. The Salty Dog stage, the faded red ship wreck of a stage hidden amongst the woods of Electric Picnic will play host to a range of awesome bands across the weekend.
Ham Sandwich will be the must see act for me over there. Lord knows what fashion podge can make work with a pirate ship at his disposal. Jerry Fish and his mudbug club will be playing to as will Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros which should make for an interesting spectacle space wise on the deck.
Rubber Bandits will be hosting a Dirty Rave and Might Stef will be closing up shop at the ship on the Sunday. It’s all rather awesome. Full listing and stage times below. Enjoy
