Electric picnic 2026. Highlights were Wunderhorse, fontaines & sombr...and also getting a lend of some tarpaulin to fix the hole in my roof from a random camper and a lend of a air mattress from @gonzomusic__ , as well as SVP €4 sleeping bags! Honourable mention for FIZZY Orange!

Lowlights were getting a hole in my roof and a river around my feet and well-meaning staff just guessing with authority when they really have no idea where the thing you asked for is!🙈😆

With the heartbreaking news of @dollyparton passing today, we send our love and deepest condolences to her family, friends, and everyone whose life she touched.
"The Life of Lester Wink" short film was, in so many ways, a celebration of Dolly’s extraordinary optimism, wisdom, words, and music. Through the award-winning performances of @patshortt1, @cleliamurphy, and @ronanleahy396, we told the story of two misunderstood people who find common ground in Dolly—and, ultimately, in each other.
Dolly’s spirit became part of the heart of our film. @carbonatedcomet put together an exceptional team in Limerick, Ireland: @jamesidonnelly, who brought Dolly's spirit to life through his incredible production design; @shane_serrano, through his beautiful cinematography; and @steve_ferrone, who helped secure two extraordinary Dolly Parton songs that became central to both our story and soundtrack.
Shot and produced entirely in Ireland, the film gave us a firsthand glimpse of just how deeply Dolly is loved in Ireland and around the world. As it traveled to festivals worldwide, audiences connected immediately with her music, humor, and spirit—including at the @waterfordfilmfest, where we were honored to receive Best Narrative Short. Knowing that Dolly personally approved the use of her songs in our film has been an incredible honor for all of us.
Like so many of Dolly's songs and her philanthropic work, "The Life of Lester Wink" is about refusing to let the world define you—about finding joy, embracing who you are, and having the courage to live as your truest self.
We will always be grateful that Dolly’s words, music, humor, and outlook on life helped inspire our short film.
Rest in peace, Dolly Parton. Thank you for the music, the laughter, the kindness, and for reminding generations of us to keep looking toward a brighter future. We feel incredibly lucky that a little piece of your spirit will always live inside "The Life of Lester Wink." ❤️
