Anyone that went to this who wants to share some stories?

location was beautiful, 

Arena was nice and spread out so didn't feel congested at any point. 

Free buses to and from the arena were a nice touch. Was queueing for 45min to get the on day 1. Got taxis to location for the other days (7-9euro)

Pros:
shiny happy people
Childish Gambino, David Byrne, Noel Gallagher
Payment system awesome. 
2nd stage had good sound
Got my early bird for 80euro and registered my wristband with cash early to to get a cool trucker hat.
Smaller stages for new acts were real nice (firestone/thunder bitch) and had good sound.

Cons:
XX were late and out of tune/time and their stage show was broken.
Food stands on tops of hills
Alcohol Prices compared to NOS Alive, 4euro vrs 8euro
Main Stage had very poor sound overall from different vantage points.
Tent Stage had poor sound (was standing beside mixing desk)
Bilbao is a not a pretty city (although the Guggenheim is amazing apart from the Chinese expo) 

Would I go again? If bilbao was nicer and the sound system was similar to NOS main stage/Mad Cool then yes. 

San sebastian is an amazing beach resort an hour away by bus. would recommend. 

Transport in Bilbao is good. 

Got gin drunk quite a lot for value for money. Overall 7/10
