The very highlight of EP? ‘She was a sexy lady she had to get her thrill…’
Removed from the joys of Electric Picnic for another year, tired and weary souls are now creeping back to a festival-free reality.
The memories will, of course, live on – and no more so than the 90s Power Party area, which over three days thrilled and delighted thousands of fans of the bygone decade.
Hosted by Electric Ireland, revellers were brought back in time – to a time that may not have boasted Wi-Fi, but instead could champion treasures such as Friends; Dawson’s Creek; Buffy; Clueless, and The Matrix.
It was the era that gave rise to Saved ByThe Bell; to Tupac Shakur, and Michael Jordan – not to mention Power Rangers, and Alanis Morissette’s not-so ironic Ironic.
Nope, it’s hardly surprising that the 90s Power Party stage was pretty much the talk of EP.
Hey @MarkMcCabeIE – we're still recovering from Saturday night's spiritual experience. 😉 Unreal. Thank you. #90sPowerParty #FullyCharged

With the stage kicking off with 2 Unlimited on Friday, Mark McCabe conquered Stradbally with his throw-back rendition of Maniac on Saturday night. Then the Vengaboys wrapped it all up yesterday.
If you missed it, and sadly not everyone could bear witness to such iconic Nineties-tinged performances, Electric Ireland has kindly stuck the best bits in a 2-minute-long video.
Suffice to say we’ll be watching this on loop for some time…
