A big day for all of the Dads still on Facebook getting ready to comment “who” or “never heard of them” under every post about the headliners

Yay, I’ve heard of them all!
I’m clearly still “with it”.

Great line up! Raging I didn’t try get a ticket before they sold out.

Holy moley

I guess I’ll never see Chappell Roan in Ireland, it’s either a 3Olympia concert that sold out before she got big or a festival that sold out before she was announced as a headliner 🤣

Far better than the 2024 headliners

Went to see Sam Fender play above The Wiley Fox years ago when he was just starting out and he cried off sick three or four songs into their set. Sounded like they were so hungover they couldn’t actually perform.

This will upset the Newstalk Dads waiting to wheel out their annual “*never heard of them”* quip. Of course they’ll still do it.

Savage. Missed Hozier last year cos it clashed with a gig the missus wanted to see. Thrilled he’s back again.

I complain every year about the lack of guitar driven music but then they book all the guitar driven music I don’t like so basically.. I’ll never be happy. 😆

As safe a corporate line up of radio friendly unit shifters as you’re likely to see.
10 years ago it would have been something like Florence and the Machine, Sam Smith, Fr John Misty and probably Kings of Leon again if RHCP had the Marley park gig that summer.
It’s basically a festival of acts you’d expect to see in the Marquee in Cork. A pre Festival Republic equivalent would have been things like Yung Blud, Kneecap, Charli XCX, and then maybe Pulp or similar arty but legacy act

Incredibly well rounded set of headliners. Can’t wait.

Shockingly bad headliners.

What’re the odds of picking up a Friday ticket between now and August? Lived in Canada the last few years so no idea what the story with EP is anymore.

Pretty crappy lineup except for fat boy slim

Haven’t been to EP in years, and for a good few years now I breathe a sigh of relief when they announce another underwhelming line up. Zero FOMO here. Chappell Roan is the only one of those I’d be bothered about. Kings of Leon haven’t done anything decent in nearly 20 years, Fatboy slim is good craic but not a headliner for a €300 festival.

wtf lol that’s actually class

All good acts, funnily enough I’d say Fatboy Slim would be the most fun

Yet again Electric picnic has very middle of the road headliners. I just don’t get the appeal of it anymore. It doesn’t seem to know what type of festival it is. All Together Now and Beyond the Pale kick its ass with the headliners in my opinion
technowobble on
Sam Fender is living off of one over played song from a few years ago.
Kings Of Leon have been a poor live act with some time and are completely living off past glories. If you know you know.
Hozier sounds fantastic live but not my idea of main stage festival act. He’d be great in the tent, not the main stage.
Fatboy Slim will be decent but can’t say he’s a bigger pull than Calvin Harris was last year.
Chappel Roan seems to have gotten a lot of the budget seeing as she’s very popular.
You’d hope the secondary acts announce might save it again this year.

Woah Fatboy Slim is still touring?! Nice!!

This is the first electric picnic in a while where I can’t be smug about not having a ticket, and if that isn’t a good sign I’m unsure what would be.

Excluding Hozier it seems like a weak bunch of headliners. Does anybody really need to hear Fatboy Slim again?

Shit line up bar hozier.

Fatboy Slim headlined the very first Electric Picnic. Was only a one day festival. We camped on a farm about a mile away. Great times.
