Oxegen 2005

Blisterman

Is it too early for this?
Anyway, just wondering who everyone thinks should play at this.

Here's who I'd like to see
Aerosmith
Motley Crue (I believe they're reforming next year for a world tour)
AC/DC
Tenacious D
Yellowcard
Beastie Boys

JoeSchmoe

jesus i hope the beasties will be doing the festival circuit this year. i also think chemical bros, will be playing again

mayordenis

maybe at the drive-in might randomly reform.

Ro: maaan!

Ha! Yeah...!

Mars Volta would be nice though...

febreze

Deffo want the beasties... Anyone going to see them in Glasgow, Manchester or London at the end of the month ?? B@stards wouldn't even do an Irish show in Dublin or Belfast !!

honru

Aye, I hope the Beastie Boys go on the European festival circuit next summer, make up for the lack of an Irish show this December. They probably won't play Oxegen 2005 though...

I think the only band that have been booked for Oxegen 2005 so far are The Frames.

bet the killers will feature highly, they're in the exact same position the darkness were last year.

Wouldn't mind seeing blur as a possible headliner, otheres id like at the fest would be
electric 6
frames
mundy
HIM
flogging molly
therapy?
Maiden
cruachan
offspring
morrissey but hes playing the point this month

Hopefully they don't start to grate quite as much as the Darkness - they need a new album to start with.

Maybe Frames to support the Pixies? Beasties would be a great headline too

karlh

we can dream but the beasties wont be touring after this album

Personally I'd like to see Brian McFadden play the main stage both nights. But it would be a little boring to hear the same stuff twice in two days, so I think the only reasonable course of action will be to have him perform his set Acapella one of the nights, preferrably the Sunday.

It could help accomodate the crowds that would surely flock - don't think the mainstage would be big enough for just one night.

I just hopes its a FRAMES_FREE ZONE like last year

McFadden, that'd be cool. In a bottle-throwing sort of way.

ditto.

Or in a sniper rifle blowing his head off kind of way.

Hopefully there'll be less of a mainstream approach to it this year, unlikely seeing as it sold out for the first time last year.

Personally would like to see:

The Frames,
The Delgados,
The Killers,
Therapy?,
The Pixies (would sell my soul to see them again)

if 17,500 went to see them at Marlay i'd think for sure that Mcd will have them back again too!
And with good reason! One of the most original and brave bands i've ever heard.
And great lads to talk to aswell!.

I thought Glen Hansard ascended into heaven at the end of that Marlay Park gig and thus won't be touring until the endtimes? Or at least that's the impression I got those who proselytised about it...

Were you there? It was actually the most mid-blowing gig ever, i'm going to see tem on the 23rd, i was at the album release in HMV, i love these guys and they just keep blowin me away, upping the game, if you don't wanna see them at oxegen, there's plenty of other stages and tents. If you don't like someone, just don't turn up!

p.pete

Suppose there's a chance of Bowie turning up again this year?

Morning Glory

I'd love to see Razorlight, Kasabian & The Libertines (including Pete Doherty) do Oxygen

Should have gone to Reading fest this year

patsmear

pixies pixies pixies pixies pixies.
Audioslave'll have their new album out by then, maybe the Foo fighters aswell..
they need to redeem themselves after bein not very good at slane last year

Roar

Green Day
Audioslave would be lethal, they were class in the point.
What odds the chili peppers??
Snow Patrol on the main stage late at night would be the berries

carl johnson

can't wait for audioslave's new album. apparantley they have loads of new **** written.. I hear it'll be out in january

I think they should bring Monsters Of Rock back to life and Bands like Iron Maiden, Motörhead, Kiss and AC/DC perhaps together with less "old-school" bands like Linkin Park or so should play together.

Brian Mc****him shouldnt be allowed on stage at all @ Oxegen or anything that big

rubadub

Kings of Leon, in the tent

qz

The Pixies were amazing at the Phoenix Park and I definately wouldn't mind seeing them again.

Anyone else want Ozzfest to return???

i wasn't there but i heard this worked really well when they played support to metallica in the RDS

Ro: maaan!

Well Foo Fighters are confirmed.

Yeah, they're headlining on the Sunday (10th). Pretty weird, I didn't know they would have a new album out by that time. Can't say I'm too thrilled, pretty mediocre live and they've played here enough in the past. A limited amount of tickets go onsale this Friday until Christmas at this year's prices (prices are going up next year).
