Electric Picnic

For weeks before the Picnic, all people could talk about was the weather. Would it hold up? Would it be the mudbath that was Oxegen '10? Did anyone even know who was performing?! Who am I? (Yes, everyone wondered that.)

Puck Fair

Kilorglin is a tiny town in the Kingdom of Kerry renowned for not much else than this once a year spectacle. The Puck Fair is the oldest festival in Ireland and one of the oldest non religious festivals in the world. What happens at the Puck Fair? Well. A goat is hoisted by a winch above the town in a metal cage and held there for three days while the town celebrate beneath it. Fill up the petrol tank, we're going!

Castlepalooza Day 2

Sunday it was and our heads had seen better days, it’s true, however we really were loving this festival like no other so with a quick rub of a baby wipe it was back into the action.

Castlepalooza Day 1

OK, first off...what is a 'Palooza'? This word has been dandied around by a lot of people who are seasoned festivalers - and we thought we were part of those people. But with 'Palooza', we were stumped! Duped! Bamboozled!
