Well that’s Electric Picnic over for another year and despite the sometimes inclement weather everyone there agreed it was a wonderful show. Highlights included Imelda May who showcased her new material, Robyn at Thisispopbaby and the all new Bacardi Arena (with the now legendary Nando’s BBQ backstage).
Some of those spotted over the weekend were Claudine Palmer, Paddy Cullivan and his wife Jen, Triona McCarthy, Kathryn Thomas, Andrea Roche and Rob White, Glenda Gilson, Avril Brophy and Senator Dan Boyle.
It's not all about the music at Electric Picnic. Over at Mindfield, poetry was slammed, books were critiqued, political views were challenged and thoughts were provoked! It's all about the spoken word, with events like the now legendary Leviathan, the perfectly silly Salon du Chat and the ubercool Science Gallery, it was an entertaining and imaginative space to lose yourself in.
The big stages don’t just get the big names, Mindfield played host to the likes of Ryan Tubridy, Howard Marks, George Galloway and David McWilliams along with music legends Simon Napier Bell and Peter Hook.
Roll on EP 2011!
