Yup tent-pissing was done with near wild abandon. But so far as I could make out it was like a territory thing, boys being disgusting. Tempted to leave my tent beehind this year....but I might just wash it when I get home instead. As for the looting of things, buy a padlock, don't leave anything valuable in the tent, and try pitch where there seem to be decent people round most of the time.
Our tents were fine, but we were in a nice enough spot of camp b. heard camp a was a nightmare. Just be careful is all kiddos. Bring your own drink, a fiver for a glass of beer? Its not even a full pint, so I think I'll stick to water on the bands and carnival part and keep my drink for the campsite.

Oh and don't do what lods of idiots did last year and drink yourself into a coma during the hottest day of the summer. The amount of alcohol-poisened lobsters the red cross had to rescue. Sad. :rolleyes:

Bring on the Chillis!

In a nut shell Campsite A is for the ****pissing Ultimo-pikeys who'll rob your drink and **** on your auntie.
And Campsite B is absolutely fine with a bit of tent jumping on the monday morning me and my friends, and extended friends, went and camped all in the one spot so there was about 20 tents in a defensive ring of rubbered, stoned, mad ouvit people which worked quite well. Just don't bring a chair unless you're actually gonna watch it 24/7.

We ended up with about 30 or so chairs last year

Oh oxegen, F**k the line up it's all about the camping!

weemcd

here we are on the eve of the general ticket release and there still is nothing to draw me in, and im pretty sure there will be no more announcments by tomorow.

very disappointed.

Mushy

Campsite A isnt that bad. I was there this year and nothin bad happened to my tent. I heard bad things bout B though! Saturday night will be the best.

Meh, there's scumbags everywhere. Just stick together and ye'll be grand. Plan to arrive at the same time as other people ye know and camp together. Just keep an eye out for each other and everything should be fine.

Anyone who ever goes to music festival just for camping deserves to be shot in the face.

Camping is crap, yeah you can have a good time with some mates and some cans but that isn't down to camping in itself. Camping at Oxegen was hell last year with regards to disgraceful toilet facilities which were not cleaned even once over the whole weekend, the disgraceful lack of washing facilities, the disgraceful lack of water available and the disgraceful lack of security. Camping at Oxegen is a health and safety hazard. MCD will do the same this year as last, rob us of our money, laugh all the way to the bank while we get treated like animals.

The fact that this years lineup is completely average makes me feel even more robbed.

Yeah good point but i dont care bout anything like that! Just get on with it. Try and avoid usin if you have to. Bring baby wipes for a "shower". Not the best but they do work. Bring your own toilet paper aswell. It works out and you dont care and dont end up with constipation.

dawballz

Was in CS A there last year, having been in CS B for the previous two years, I can honestly say that A was full of knackers.
It put me off going this year tbh.
Nothing happened, but it's just a pain in the arse havin to keep an eye on yourself and your friends stuff all the time.. too hard to relax.
Maybe Electric Picnic this year for me.

Berns

Got my ticket , first time goin :eek:
Hope get some more good bands in though, aint the best atm :rolleyes:
