Full Electric Picnic Stage Times revised
These stage times are updated from yesterday and look pretty comprehensive (and include the Big Tree, Bacardi B-Bar and Lost Vagueness). There are also quite a few bands playing the Chill Stage in the Body and Soul area, but there’s no mention of the line-up on the Electric Picnic site. I think it’s organised by a different crew to the festival, but still, not having the info up two days before everything kicks off is a bit shoddy. One band I know that are playing, are Halfset, who will be on at 4.15pm on Saturday (on aforementioned Chill Stage). After that, I’ve bolded everything I’m going to try and see and anything with a * is a must-see (I’m purposely skipping lots of Irish stuff I’d like to see because I know I can catch them again).
The Infactah boys have found some sort of EP artists pack which is full of all sorts of info. Maybe I’m missing something, but on the last page of the booklet it says:
“Participants of Electric Picnic please note: Magic is for on site use only!”
Is this some covert code for shady behaviour or just a warning to keep your Paul Daniels’ card tricks to yourself when you leave Stradbally? Answers on a postcard please…

I knocked out a PDF showing the timetable earlier today. You can take a look at the PDF here.
One question though: any word what happened to The Russian Futurists? He was a big reason for going for me this year.
August 29th, 2006 at 5:05 pm
Cheers for that Keith, way neater than the above. Someone sent me a snazzy colour coded one last year that was great, any idea where I’d find one?
Not sure what happened to Russian Futurists, but I know they’re meant to be playing the Foggy Notions stage. Also there’s no replacement listed for Gnarl’s Barkley and no mention of Viva Voce who I really want to see.
August 29th, 2006 at 5:42 pm
Well, this is only the first version. I’m pretty sure I could lay everything out a lot better than it is right now.
Supposedly he’s had to cancel all his Irish and Scandi gigs.
August 29th, 2006 at 7:29 pm
Good lord, what is this lineup to. I want to go to this >:O
PJ Harvey! I’m come to the conclusion that I am cursed to ever seeing her perform live.
August 30th, 2006 at 8:39 am
yeh i think it’s changed a bit now, like Polly Harvey is headlining (yay!) the crawdaddy stage. Oh well, we’ll see later today I guess!
August 30th, 2006 at 9:06 am
Anyone know where The Boy Least Likely To have gone?? I was really looking forward to seeing them. My hot tip for one of the early shows is Michael Franti and Spearhead. Seen them live twice and were amazing both times.
August 30th, 2006 at 10:12 am
Is it just me or does PJ Harvey really look like Linda Martin in that photo? Scary.
August 30th, 2006 at 10:17 am
“Is it just me or does PJ Harvey really look like Linda Martin in that photo? Scary.”
Ouch!
So, what’s that magic business all about then?
August 30th, 2006 at 12:40 pm
if you don’t get to see the brakes i wouldn’t worry too much sinead. saw them a few months back and it wasn’t exactle stellar.
August 30th, 2006 at 12:49 pm
PDF updatorized.
August 30th, 2006 at 1:19 pm
Mish, that’s disappointing to hear. Really liked ‘Give Blood’.
Keith, much obliged.
August 30th, 2006 at 2:44 pm
arrgh, there’s so many timetables going around that i am getting confused! for example, the Excel doc and the pdf to download on Keith (above)’s site conflicts with your listings, sinead. presume yours is the official one. can’t get on to the EP site.
August 30th, 2006 at 2:54 pm
Mine’s the same as Sinead’s one, just organised to make scanning to see what conflicts easier. If you’ve seen something different though, treat Sineads as canon, and tell me: I’ll update mine.
August 30th, 2006 at 3:05 pm
The only conflict I spotted was PJ Harvey, who apparently is now headlining the Crawdaddy stage. Gnarl’s Barkley’s replacement hasn’t been announced yet so I left that blank.
August 30th, 2006 at 3:08 pm
oops, crossed comments there Keith. Yep, they’re the same but PJ is headlining the Crawdaddy tent (Niall has this as this well)
August 30th, 2006 at 4:25 pm
sorry, panicking unnecessarily! the only differences i can spot between these line ups are pj harvey & amp fiddler (whose slots have been swapped), pet shop boys (on earlier cos of no gnarls whatsisname), and a slight difference in the minotaur shock and psapp times (MS at 515 instead of 530).
hope the damn rain clears up!
August 30th, 2006 at 8:20 pm
I’ll fix that up. I’m moving a weblog from WP to MT right now, but I’ll get to it shortly.
