If I suggest that an 80s-90s tv icon with a limited music career whose already whored his novelty value out to the nines performs?

DAVID HASSELHOFF!

You know what would be funnier?
If I make a barely viable portmanteau out of Hasselhoff and Oxegen?

HOFFSEGEN!

God Im witty.

For what its worth I bet we will see about 2/3rds of this list: Arctic Monkeys, Forward Russia, Wolf Parade, Greenday, The Kooks, Rodrigo y Gabriel, Bloc Party, Hot Hot Heat, Fall out Boy, Pretty girls make graves, AFI, Muse, The Shins, Interpol, Antony and the Johansens, The Editors, The Bravery, Sugababes, The Polyphonic Spree, Gorillaz, and Kanye West.

Just judging by new album releases, general tours and promotion in around the same time, and MCDs lack of creativity (hey lets get Greenday again! :-) )

hopefully we'll only get one third of that mostly ****e list, can't wait to see Antony and the Johansens, or was that another witticism??

I'd definitely say Marlay is more likely for Radiohead. Oxegen's crowd and Radiohead wouldn't be a good mix anyway.

Oasis are playing Hyde Park in June and with a rumoured EP due in the summer I reckon they will do a festival or two during the summer. However them playing Oxegen is only specualtion and is extremely unlikely. They won't be playing Marlay Park that's for certain.

I doubt EP will get Oasis, it'll increase the Scobe count too much.

MrJones · 08-02-2006 12:14PM

dear oxygen promoters,
how about stop the ripping off of people by not charging
a ridiculous €10 for the schedule.

eh? where/who is saying that they're playing hyde park or anywhere in june? noel said they were finishing touring in spring and taking 2 years off then. the official site says that they'll be "concluding their 12 month tour in mexico". can't see them playing anywhere, especially UK again, and definitely not an Irish festival.

read that sentence you're referring to again.

maquiladora · 08-02-2006 03:50PM

Interesting to hear about The Who being mentioned. Theres plenty of talk of The Who & Radiohead playing the V Festival - and isnt that the one that usually has the same acts at witnness/oxegen? So maybe it'll be the who and radiohead at oxegen too. With the new album out this summer (supposedly in the dark pop direction) it could be interesting...

Yeah thanks for clearing up that misunderstanding for me!

I think it's safe to say that Oasis would never play Electric Picnic!

exiot · 10-02-2006 12:48AM

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS
Yeah it would be cool, but theres no way they would headline a festival when they can sell out Phoenix Park..

Bring on Radiohead, The Who, Arctic Monkeys, Placebo, Rod y Gab, Smashing Pumpkins and Velvet Revolver!

bringitdown · 10-02-2006 02:14PM

TOOOOOOOOOL

That is all

ClareBear · 10-02-2006 06:26PM

Stereophonics, The Prodigy, Coldplay, Kubb, Travis, Radiohead, Ordinary Boys, Muse, Antony and the Johansens, Editors, Kanye West, Roger Sanchez, Deep Dish, Daft Punk, Mylo, Faithless, Chemical Brothers.....

If Radiohead, Kubb and Stereophonics play there's no way I'd miss it, otherwise I wouldn't be too bothered this year, I didn't really enjoy last year that much.

Beau · 10-02-2006 07:04PM

Personally I`d love to see M.I.A., but its not going to happen.

Why not?

She is doing the festivals this summer.

Beau · 11-02-2006 11:59PM

Oh yeh!? Where did you hear that. I thought she was going off to live in Jamaica to make the new album. If she did come here I would go ape ****, better than any artificial high. Arular is an amazing album.

/me prays thats for a break and they dont intend on bringing there crap to ireland again!

Mushy · 12-02-2006 09:20PM

They will be announcing bands for T in the Park tomorrow. the rumoured bands are pure crap so if they play, im guranteed of missing loads of it, thank god. As for that long list, most of those bands would want to headline Main Stage. And dont get RHCP for Oxegen. They playind stadiums/arenas, not very-open air places. They might play Croker cos Rolling Stones have Phoinex for this year

Nimrod's Son · 13-02-2006 03:35PM

I would like to see: Arcade Fire, Oasis, Gorrilaz, Underworld, Deep Dish, Goldfrapp, Prodigy, Pixies, Strokes, Super Furry Animals, Rakes, Editors, Supergrass, Beck, Stereophonics, Iron Maiden, David Bowie, Hard-Fi, Sultans Of Ping, Belle And Sebastian, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, Pink Floyd (I reckon they'd reform one more time for Oxegen

The WHO, chillis, ordinary boys, artic monkeys are all confirmed for T in the PArk, so thats a 99% certainty of them playing Oxygen.
