The build up to Irelands biggest rock festival is well under way with little over 2 months to go to the Punchestown weekend of fun. The lineup was pretty tasty previously including acts like Foo Fighters, Coldplay, The Strokes, Black Eyed Peas, Blink 182 (If management finally confirm), The National, Brandon Flowers, Beady Eye and more more more.

Now adding to the lineup is rock god Slash, America’s hottest underground act Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, one of my favourite all time acts Manic Street Preachers aswell as Glasvegas, The Saturdays, Pete Doherty, The Pretty Reckless, Professor Green, Eliza Doolittle, Example, Cherri Bomb and Ke$ha.

Not three bad if you ask me. I always like an eclectic lineup and that is pretty much hitting all the bases.
