Just make friends with your neighbours, and hopefully you will be beside some like minded folk. I found that last year, the large majority of people were at the very least friendly and some were outgoing to make sure you had a good time.

Make a shirt that says something like "Came from Ireland, traveling alone." You will make a fuckton of friends. Everyone will want to buy you a beer.

the funny thing is, interstate is spot on with that idea. sasquatchorbust i'd love to share some beers with ya. would it be horribly stereotypical of me to bring some guinness along?

As others have said; if you're gonna be alone anywhere in the world a music fesitval is probably the best place to do it. We met so many people last year that we barely hung out in our group of friends that we'd gone there with anyways.
So camp next to some good cool people (stick to the Canadians), and you'll have a blast. Hell, bring your irish accent by my campsite and i"ll pick up the girls you can't take care of

I'm always down for the Guinness if you're needing some help with them... tell yer what, I'll bring the whiskey for our Irish friend, if we find some Bailey's, then we can start with the car bombs!

Yeah, I'm going to have to second that. I don't seeing it lasting past the second day, and that's if I'm smart enough to drink it all the first.

car bombs in ireland are made with jager and red bull..put the shot glass into the red bull and down the hatch...nothing like it at half ten in the morning!
