Day 1 Electric Picnic 2012 | Andres Poveda Event Photography
It was a long treck from the Car park to the main Arena but the folks down here in Stradbally didnt disapoint again this year. The mood was electric through the campsite and then as the arena opened to the sound of Kormacs Big Band on the main stage the mood reached fever pitch. Alabama Shakes, Gavin Friday, The XX and Sigur Ros all permormed on the main stage making a very mellow first night to the Electric Picnic 2012.
