True enough, I'm supposed to be working:D getting a bit off topic though.

Wouldn't fancy The Thrills but I guess what the punters want probably won't come into any decision making...

Well the Thrills *are* super crap, so they'd be top of the list if MCD are looking for cheap, crap replacements, heh.

and there's one person who decides who's a twit and who isn't eh?
Some people might just think that is kinda dictatorial after all.

i really dont think vodka and tuborg are the ingredients for a kick ass weekend. why do the irish feel the need to get totally wasted in order to have a good time? they get so drunk that they couldn't have a good time and even if they did they wouldn't remember.
sure, younger people don't know their limits yet but by the time your 20 its just sad to be getting really ****faced!

corm500 · 30-06-2004 04:41PM

Just announced on nme.com, Bowie replaced at T in The Park gig by....yes you guessed it the Darkness. Jesus wept

I seriously doubt it at this late stage, the gig is ten days away and all the big acts are probably long booked up for Summer. Most likely Muse will headline - although i've a feeling they won't be coming either, Dom must be absolutely devastated about what happened on Sunday

what happened on sunday?

Well perhaps you should seek some help for your problem then.

His father died shortly after they played their set at Glastonbury. They've cancelled their Wednesday gig, so Oxegen is still up in the air.

The Darkness are set to headline Sunday night at OXEGEN following David Bowie’s unfortunate withdrawal due to illness. David Bowie has been forced cancel his entire European Tour due to a trapped nerve in his shoulder sustained last week.

“We wish David Bowie well and hope he has a quick recovery. We are disappointed that he has had to withdraw but are looking forward to OXEGEN which features performances from the hottest international artists of today. Across the weekend fans will see performances from Muse who were the highlight of Glastonbury, The Cure, The Strokes, Pink, Black Eyed Peas, Franz Ferdinand, Snow Patrol, Kings of Leon, Belle and Sebastian and many many more”. stated Justin Green, MCD.

your not the only one by any means, it's just that their fans usually aren't saddos who spend their days talking ****e on the internet.
thats more the niche of the muse fan.

Am I the only one who likes the darkness ?

Probably not. There's nowt wrong with The Darkness, except that they're little more than Queen-lite, they've only got one album under their belts, and no matter how good their show, they should be hard pushed to fill the Dame's shoes....

Blisterman · 30-06-2004 05:50PM

David Bowie was the one good act on sunday, they should get Jane's Addiction or Aerosmith to headline.
