This will be ‘the greenest event in the world this year' according to promoter John Reynolds with no cars or parking available. The ticket price for this one day event will include transport from Dublin city centre or a Park & Ride facility from Leopardstown Racecourse.Having played the Electric Picnic three years ago it's a welcome return to these shores for Kraftwerk, when you take into account its their only show in Western Europe in 2008 it makes all the more special. Commonly referred to as the "Godfathers of electronic music" Kraftwerk pioneered the genre in the 1970s and their influence on other bands is incalculable. So ahead of their time, we are still catching up.  Few bands arouse such intrigue as this quartet from Dusseldorf who will be performing a two hour show.  Notoriously reclusive, Kraftwerk rarely provide interviews or media appearances and opt to send their robot doubles as stand ins for official photographs.  Their live appearances are also becoming increasingly infrequent so Irish fans are in for a double treat witnessing this enigmatic band in breathtaking grounds, never before used for this purpose.Background Luggala info:Guinness heir Gareth Brown resides at Luggala. Founder of Claddagh Records record label in 1959 which recorded many of the classic traditional music albums of the last five decades, he also discovered The Chieftains, the first band to make Irish traditional music popular around the world.  Slightly more compelling is the story behind Gareth's brother, Tara Brown. Socialite and enthusiast of London Counterculture, Tara was a good friend of the Beatles.  Paul McCartney met Tara for the first time in the same club where he would eventually meet Linda.  In 1966 at the age of 21, and rumoured to be on mind expanding drugs at the time, Tara drove his sports car at high speed through red lights in South Kensington, smashing into a van and killing himself. It was this that inspired John Lennon to write the lines "I heard the news today oh boy" and "he blew his mind out in a car" from the Beatles song ‘A Day in the Life'.
