    Anyone know when we will see the official timeslots for the bands released. It appears the oxegen.ie & mcd.ie are down at the mo - oops, someone didn't plan for capacity .

    mcd have said they won't be announced apparently

    We'll know when we get there and handover our €10 for the dated timetable still including bowie:rolleyes:

    I don't have anything I can link to to back this up but somebody posted it on the oxegen message board earlier (which is unfortunately down at the moment).

    Hopefully it's not true but it wouldn't surprise me...

    Check The Ticket (Irish Times supplement) tommorrow. If they're not in that then it's certain that they are not releasing the times, which is really, really bent.

    Those lousey sods at MCD, so they are not going to release the times that bands are on stage. I assume we'll have to be paying the 10+ euro for the official dogtags - ripoff. Those bloody things were out of date last year, had a couple of blatant mistakes. Do they not think that 130 is enough to be paying, with extortionate food prices for dry tasteless food at the campsites without being forced to pay another 10+ for a gig timetable!

    Someone should post the timetable here as soon as they get it (whether through irish times or through dog tags or whatever).

    It's not in the Irish Times (or the Ticket at least)

    MCD = ****ing ****.

    It turns out I'm not actually going to the festival but this move by MCD to withold times is an absolute disgrace, people should buycot buying their rip-off timetables. You can roughly work-uot what the times are going to be anyway. No doubt drinks will be 5euro or more, f**kin disgrace.

    BTW is their website down on purpose I wonder

    Bollocks.

    MCD seem to be going along by the UK festival side of things. The majority of the big European festivals post their timetables online, however, many UK festivals tend to only give access to a timetable once inside the festival.

    Perhaps its because there have been screw-ups in the past when keeping all the bands on scheduele. In any case, this still sucks.

    another example of MCD being money grabbing ****s that need the irish people to boycott their gigs, i certainly won't be going next year.

    Friend of mine works in franchising at oxegen, laminated timetables that go round your neck will be on sale from this avvo at the gate
