Seems like it, I have an excuse for not being around though: University and long distance travel ftw!

Can people in this thread direct their peepers towards this thread:
[forum.nin.com]

Might be some fun involved!

I wouldn't mind to see your Muse footage

yeah, because those pointers will help when filming nin next time.

Hey Trev
What's up man!?
Yeah, me and John are heading over - ya met him in the dam iirc?

Seriously can't wait, its gonna make my year.

Hey Irish NIN folk,

Lots of the global NIN websites have gone off line now. Australian, Germany, and including the Irish one. Didn't take long for these sites to belly up regarding NIN going into hibernation mode for a while. Alas, I suppose this thread is it for the time being..... (which was never fun to begin with). Long silences, petty hate, etc...

But regarding the Electric Picnic 2010,

Just pointing out the obvious, agree or disagree with me, I don't care. But if ppl think spending 240E for Electric Picnic, and only seeing the likes of Roxy music, Freeze, The Frames, Massive Attack, or Imeda May..... I like Massive Attack and The Waterboys, and they will draw a good load in. So, good luck if ya like the line up. So if your going I know you'll have a good time (Tickets are out this Friday 26th March, and takes place on the 3,4,&5 September).

But, when ya look at what's on this year at Oxegen 2010 for 199.50E (3 day no camping), or 224.50E (3 day camping), well no comparison. Save your dough for this years Oxegen folks, pay for that one first. I know some ppl here, and they have told me "they'd rather slit there wrist's than go to Oxegen". Well this post isn't aimed or meant to antagonize them, it's aimed at anyone who's impartial, and just wants to make up their own mind, with the given the facts.

When you have Muse, Eminem, Prodigy, Faithless, Temper Trap, Florence and the machine, Arcade Fire, Kasabian, Fat Boy Slim, Calvin Harris, and the Black Eyed Peas.... well, what can I say.

Ya, I know the Picnic serves a good purpose as a conveyor belt for new and up & coming Irish/UK band. All I'm saying, why take the risk! But ppl will go because they want to hear new material, and that's exciting in itself. So good, there are good reasons to go to the Picnic. I know EP organizer's have never paid top dollar for the best acts, never tried to compete with Oxegen, so all I'm saying - WHY is it so Pricey???? Like, how much does it cost to get Roxy Music in?? And what happens if the top acts are assigned to different days? Ppl will have no choice to pay the full wack of the 3 day ticket.

I suppose you could say Oxegen is over commercialized, expensive, and hard to get to. There will always be pillheads at any festival. And yes, EP as more cult, alternative appeal, and slightly more grown up atmosphere than Oxegen. But the Picnic is charging over inflated prices, for what's in my opinion, B-list music. Last years Oxegen, for me was a magical weekend, NIN/Jane's Addiction/White Lies/Ting Tings, especially the Sunday. The atmosphere was just invigorating and energetic...

So, I don't expect ppl to post and agree with me on this, because no one on this thread (ever) as a sensible measured debate with me anymore. But this, had to be said....

Bottom line - I'm saving my money for Oxe10, paid for my tickets already, and all I need now is a good summer's weekend in Naas! If that feat is possible...... Hope to see ya there!!!
