You can see for yourself hereThere's something about The Flaming Lips, maybe it's their Oklahoma charm, their surreal wit or their whole-hearted commitment to making every show they play just like a birthday party. Whatever it is they've garnered themselves a well-deserved reputation among the festival faithful here at the Electric Picnic and they seem to be on everyone's 'must see' lists. Frontman Wayne Coyne is quite possibly the nicest man in pop. He could also talk the hind legs of a donkey. Here he chats with Cormac Battle and Dan Hegarty about practical festival footwear and The Flaming Lips relationship with Irish audiences. 
Charlie Parr's music was made for the Body & Soul stage here at Electric Picnic as anyone fortunate enough to have caught his set there will testify. As though that weren't enough, he gracefully perfromed an exclusive session for us here at 2fm picnic headquarters. 
BellX1 find themselves in something of a dance
sandwich on the Main Stage tonight, following on from 
Conor O'Brien's Villagers project has risen like a
phoenix from the flames of The Immediate. Despite having released just one EP
he's managed to pack out two Electric Picnic sets this week, one on Friday in Body &
Soul and the other at the Crawdaddy Stage earlier today. Such herculean efforts have taken their toll though as he tells Dan Hegarty.
Mercury
Music Prize nominee Lisa Hannigan enjoyed her stint on the
Main Stage ahead of Beach Boy and all round music icon
Brian Wilson. 
While you're at home in the comfort of your living room in your smoking jacket and slippers listening to some of the exclusive performances and interviews here on the 2fm Electric Picnic blog, spare a thought for those hardcore revellers waking up in tents that seemed a good idea at the time but are now leaking like an excited toddler with a juice addiction. 
Mundy is set to get toes tapping over in the Crawdaddy
Stage later this evening but before that he dropped in for an exclusive
acoustic rendition of Strawberry Blood for your ears only!
The Aussie indie rockers played the Crawdaddy Stage early this evening and Cormac Battle caught up with Dougy and Toby before their set.
Strange one this. Her set started brightly with "Dance Dance" and "I'm Good I'm Gone", tunes that suitably aroused the jammed Crawdaddy Stage. However the momentum faltered afterwards with a few slower numbers and (quite unbelievably) a Kings Of Leon cover. The recovery process had to start - and it did - "Breaking It Up" - a particular highlight. But we were left with the impression of a slightly underwhelming set when compared to her sold out Button Factory show earlier this year.

Come and see a sacred fire being lit, a unique planting of a grove of native Irish trees - Oak, Ash, Yew, Holly, Rowan, Hawthorn, Hazel, all considered sacred in ancient Ireland. There is also a fund raising auction for the Woodland league, whereby the trees to be planted will be sponsored through bidding. A wish for each tree will go out to the four corners of Mother Earth for healing and hope for the future, radiated by the fire pit in the centre.
