Check out Saturday's photographs!
The weather gods certainly seem to be smiling on Electric Picnic. As you’ve no doubt been made aware of by now, this year’s Electric Picnic was subject to scaremongering by weather forecasters and festival-goers alike predicting some sort of apocalyptic Hurricane Irene-like weather. Not only did this not come to fruition on Saturday, yesterday’s weather was as good as any of the best Picnics in recent memory. I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t the odd shower here or there (the rain is pitter-pattering on the media tent as I type this) but Electric Picnic 2011 has – so far – been largely rain free, which is pretty darn good for an Irish music festival in September.
