Excellent, I haven’t a clue who most of them are but I bet they’re brilliant.
Also of interest was this:
Electric Picnic intends to make a greater strides this year towards becoming as environmentally friendly as possible. Discussions with Cultivate Ireland & Global cool are on-going to investigate how we can reduce our use of non renewable energy & offset those we do. The festival will also have large on site recycling stations this year instead of recycling off-site as per previous years, and will be introducing a pro-active ‘Leave No Trace’ campaign. Enforcing a biodegradeable packaging policy with the traders and focusing on a more environmental traffic management plan
Electric Picnic will eat Oxegen for breakfast.

ps best option until the site gets up and running (if indeed it does) is keep an eye on the forums, particularly the official announcements section…
