By now, Sled Island has grown to fill a place in the hearts of people of a certain age and persuasion that is reminiscent of the place that people of an older age and altogether earthier persuasion hold for the Folk Fest. Like Christmas for the skinny-jeans set, Sled Island's arrival heralds the greatest weekend of the summer, filled with all your best pals, all the hippest bands and all the illicit substances you can cram into your body over four heady days. This year's highlight will no doubt be the battle between Les Savy Fav's Tim Harrington and Fucked Up's Pink Eyes for ultimate beard supremacy. Like matter and anti-matter, their beards must be kept separate from each other for the good of the universe.
