The ghosts of Electric Picnics past

After witnessing so much discofinger at this year's Electric Picnic, it occurred to us to check the YouTube archives and excavate the discofingers of Electric Picnics past. It appears as if discofinger has been happening for many years at the Electric Picnic, and we are cautiously optimistic that Ireland may well be the discofinger capital of the world.

The festival discofinger buzz

This year's Electric Picnic in County Laois was especially fruitful, giving us many opportunities to both discofinger and capture discofinger videos. The below were taken during Barry Donovan's (Lunar Disko) set in the Bodytonic tent.
