What exactly does unoficially mean? Does it just mean someone said it on a message board? 'Cause that would be disappointing.

The Free Man · 06-04-2005 11:27pm

aye its on the msg board, but its in a sticky topic and posted by a mod.

Ive heard good things about Mars Volta but never heard any of their stuff but if theyre playin at oxegen il have a listen to them.

On a different note im really lookin forward to Razorlight play any1 else agree?

i heard Razorlight live on BBC radio last night and they were so so.

i'll be there to watch em though all the same.

Mars Volta are indeed excellent. First album is anyway. They were great at Witnness two years ago. Small tent, class.

Razorlight were very good last year. Stayed for the end of them instead of going to the Strokes. Probably had something to do with the small tent too.

They sound very like The Strokes(Razorlight) but i read an interview with the lead vocalist and he said he went to a Strokes gig and it nearly put him off singing!!!

I didnt know Mars Volta were at witnness 2 years ago damn!!!

Ro: maaan! · 07-04-2005 5:08pm

Aye. I only knew one of their songs at that stage, but people I knew knew them so I went along. Got the album soon after. And The 80s Matchbox B-Line Disaster were on just before them. It was a good 2 hours.

twas indeed class, the small tents are great once you get in early. they end up being packed out tho...

you'd really need to see mars volta do a 2 hour set to experience them in full tho,
maybe they will at this oxegen :eek:
