This picture paints a thousand words of the Stone Roses Gig in the Phoenix Park last night...
Here's a review of last nights gig courtesy of Entertainment.ie The Stone Roses Review

Ahhhh so the sunshine is finally here... Will it last for any of the festivals that are to take place for the rest of the summer?? Who knows? I know I'm skipping right through to September but I could help drooling at the line up for Electric Picnic this year.. Hopefully my recession hit purse will be able to spread to the ticket cost...

The legends that are HotChip are playing this year.. Sure you'd have ta.. Above is a picture of them rocking out at last years Glastonbury Festival.
You can check out the rest of the line up on their website here. Electric Picnic Lineup

Look at the fab sunny photos direct from the good people at Westport Festival.
They've a fantastic line up including the ever entertaining Imelda May and also JOOLS HOLLAND!
Big cooo for Westport..Anyone going?

The anticipation for the Body & Soul festival is weekend is building and even the wrotten rain can't dampen my spirits.. I probably will need lots of spirits now to get me through it but still, I'm giving myself 10 out of 10 for enthuasism...
This has brought me back to one of my earlier posts about asking you to share ingenious or just a little bit clever, solutions to coping with the rain at festivals.. I'm on the look out for some ideas and will post any from the weekend to inspire you..
In the mean time here's some images from the the Isle of Wight festival.. They're having the same weather as we are but it's not showing on their faces... Isle of Wight Festival, Telegraph article
Enjoy!

In the Ticket Today inside the Irish Times there's a 4 page Festival Pull out.. Well worth a look ( no I do not work for the Irish Times so it's up to you if you want to buy it, although it does make you look intelligent whilst sitting on the dart) I digress, tis very good.. Here's a link to their facebook page which will give you a preview Irish Times Ticket Facebook
Seeing all the ads for Sea Sessions in Donegal remind me of the time I went there 2 years ago.. Had a very pukey episode in the car on the way home and may have puked on a random person waiting for the bus to work on the Monday after it.. Ooops...
