    bass player from the bravery falling off the stage was pretty funny. it was made extra funny by the serious effort the band were putting in to look as cool as possible. he decided to pull off his shirt and ponce around the front of the stage. then he took a tumble.
    quite funny.

    id actually forgotten about that! that was so cringy.

    then the same guy decided to jump onto the drum kit at the end and actually got a telling off from the security :D

    dickheads in the security. MCD must have found the missing link, cloned him
    and put a yellow jacket on him..........

    most of snoop's set had me creased up his "king pimp" mate was quite laughable !!!
    security tossers refusing to let people into a half full tent for reasons of safety during Mylo was a total pain in the hole as were the prices of the food on the GRAB -N-GO stand.
    I thought the whole idea of grab & go was to provide cheaper food as there are no tills /cashiers involved ???

    A lad passed out, face down in the grass with his trousers round his ankles, everyone taking pics of his arse with their phones. I also saw a lad trying to jump from the steel fence to the green wall, didn't make it of course. :D

    a friend of a friend sat down beside us when we were drinking by our tents and he fell asleep on the chair. he fell off it a few times and was clearly in a complete state. when he left it wasn't before he wet himself. then i went over to the car park where he was with his crowd and found out he was after gicking himself as well. then he went in to the gig with no top or shoes or socks and danced away in the dance tent for about six hours solid claiming afterwards that didn't take anything. good craic.

    Speaking of wetting ones self:

    Were were drink away in the campsite, when this guy came over to us and asked for a lend of a plastic glass, which we gave him.

    He then proceded to but the cup down his pants and pee in to the cup. He was laughing away as he was relieving himself. Then ( which i assume is part if thie party trick) started to drop the cup down the inside of his leg, but unforutnatly for him, the cup hit his knee and spilled all the wee out drenched his pants.

    We nearly died laughing!! :D

    Guys diving face first in the mud by the sinks in campsite B, one of them naked.
    The Huge explosion in the fire in campsite B, making everyone jump for cover.
    People throwing tents in the fire
    Everyone throwing bottles in the air during audioslave.

    security werent letting anyone in to see james brown despite it only being half full. big crowd of protestors developed eager to get in.

    and then!!!

    people started jumping over barriers and pulling the tent up to go under. fat security too slow to catch them. people queuing started to push through the barriers and knock security down. security gave up. funny cause i couldnt understand why security should give a ****e with it being the end of the night.

    james brown=legend!!!!!!!!

    flying bottles during audioslave

    i broke my ankle as soon as i set foot inside the campite on friday afternoon so i had to hop around all weekend,it was saaad. but i didnt have to queue for the toilets at all,was a bonus...
    but i still had my fun :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 818 ✭✭✭idontknowmyname


    1st funny thing that happened was during Greenday- Billy Joe out his hands down his trousers and started feeling himself up then he couldn;t stop laughin....the dirty fecker :D

    Then during Foo Fighter's set, this girl ran out on the stage over to Mr Grohl and demanded a kiss, he told her she looked like a back packer, then told her to "get off my ****ing stage"!!!! He kept looking over at this wife saying i "love you honey, I'd never kiss her on the lips", then he announced to everyone that after Oxegen (their last tour date) himself and the missus would start try for a family so mini Grohls running around- cool!!!

    All the bottles bein' thrown up at audioslave was really cool,a pure kodak moment.
    Gettin' soaked by security at Bloc Party,then my friends newly dyed pink hair going on everyone beside her and turning one guys arm completely pink
    Dancing to the Kaiser Chiefs was just pure fun.
    Sittin on my friends shoulders for New Order and watchin' the security get real angry at me as they mouthed "get down" and threw their arms around the place.
    And of course the Bus rides home.... :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,891 ✭✭✭Jammer


    during keane/killers there was some dude locked, on his mates back and he kept saying "When i say punches, y'all say Town!"..."punches"...nothing..."punches"...nothing again, apart from people laughing. He was at it for ages and in the end people gave in to get him to shut up, twas funny.

    Everyone trowing their bottles at Audioslave was really cool, the Bravery were just so funny to laugh at. After New Order last night me and my two mates were standimg in a field when this guy who was completely off his face came over to us and asked were we the que for the jacks and talking about Paris... god he was hilarious!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,124 ✭✭✭Jonny Arson


    Funniest moment - me drunk ..... worst moment - me drunk ..... I'm such a f**king pisshead. :eek:

    The funniest moment was when some bloke comes over to all of my crew and starts rapping for about 5 minutes as if he is from NWA or something....... you'd have to be there to understand how funny it was. :D

    All of the tents on fire in campsite B last night was really funny..... hopefully there was no one still in them! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,257 ✭✭✭SoupyNorman


    the worst i seen was the two dopes who climbed up the dance tent onto the roof,

    the funniest thing i seen was the same two lads two afraid to come down to recieve a serious beating from the security!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭Hail 2 Da Chimp


    Best moment: standing around wearing only my boxers socks and runners inviting girls to the pants party. ;)

    Some muppet offering to human beat box for a can of beer and a fag, he was walking around with 2 "cheerleaders"
    then when he did we just ripped the p!ss of him and his mates. He looked like jack ozborn and his friend looked like the grinch.

    The guys holding the lader up in campsite b and some guy climbing to the top of it and falling off.

    the guys from buncranna in the tent next to us singin afternoon delight and streaking!!!

    The music was good also.

    the funniest thing by far was the two huge security guards that snoop had on the edge of the stage. what was he thinkin, that there would be a drive-by in the middle of punchestown.
    As for the biggest disapointment, it had to be the foo fighters the sound was terrible were I was but managed to stroll around an catch most of a savage set from New Order

    We had some guy doing that for a cig. We ripped the piss out of him aswell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 995 ✭✭✭sinjin_smythe


    Funniest was when my friend put a white boiler suit on and covered his face with sun cream and put a condom on his head chasing people around trying to be a sperm. I have a pic here somewhere. Did anyone see him in A1??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 995 ✭✭✭sinjin_smythe


    Best song by far was that 3G song "you take away the sweatest part of me ,,,, who who whoooooooo oooooooo baby please dont go ".

    It might just have been, sounds very familiar, he was up in B6, beside the tent with the guys playin guitar and saxaphone...

    He was wearin a black heavy metal tshirt forget the band, had two guys who looked like his cheer leaders!

    such a loser! nearly felt sorry for him, but that didnt stop us!

    he was making jokes about muslim suicide bombers until we convinced him that 1 of my mates was muslim, then made him apologise to Allah!!! haha chump! :D

    Anyone see the guy in the red glittery cape who crowdsurfed to the front during Doves and then somehow got up on the stage. I never saw him climb up or anything. Anyway he was kind of sitting at the side when Jimi Goodwin of the band noticed him and said "it's Donovan!" Your man got a big cheer and went over to shake hands with Jimi who said "that was a most surreal occurance!" pretty funny I thought.
