    How would folks feel about Lady Gaga headlining - I think that might be a possibility ?

    With the way it's gone the past few years it would not surprise me.

    Ok so was kinda bored so I made a mock-up poster for what I think would make a great line up for Oxegen 2011. Some of the acts on it are far more likely than others, but let me know what you think anyway.

    If daft punk alone were there I would definitely go. Hopefully with the release of Tron they will have a few tour dates.
    Missed them last time they were at Oxegen, went to Razorlight instead /facepalm

    I'd be delighted. She's amazing live. Great voice, stage presence. She really knows how to put a good show on and give value for money.

    She could headline 2nd stage opposed to someone like the Foo's. Would be a great act to have.

    Nice One Man..Fingers crossed for the Foos, Blink and The Chilis...
    \m/ BRING BACK THE RAWWWWWWKKKK \m/ :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 278 ✭✭iainconlon12


    System of a Down. LOL highly doubtful!

    I can see Blink playing but wouldn't want to see Foos playing. I love them but I'd rather see them on their own..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,234 ✭✭✭Ardennes1944


    i know oxegen is meant to be a rock kinda concert but my own preference would be eminem first by miles obviously but other than him, bloc party (i know theyre no more ) artic monkeys, b.o.b , chillies, justin timberlake ( no hope obv ) professor green , pendulum.

    ive mixed tastes :P

    Yep, looks like Foo's for T...They'll do Oxegen as well and that'll be that one out of the way, I think we all expected them. Good solid rock headliner.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 manbearpig77


    still no word on earlybird tickets? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD OXEGEN PULL THE FINGER OUT!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,429 ✭✭✭Pierce_1991


    Metallica for T in the Park!!

    HOLY F**K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! seriously loaded lineup. between this and the lack of an announcement i don't know if there'll be an oxegen next year. I think there will still be a large festival on the weekend of t, but i'm not sure it'll be the same name/location/setup as oxegen. Sonisphere ireland maybe?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,778 ✭✭✭Pauleta


    Have the organisers of oxegen finally come to the conclusion that indie music is indeed crap :eek:

    As i think was mentioned before, Sonisphere is also the weekend of Oxegen. I think Metallica have a contract with Sonisphere and they cant play in the same country as a Sonisphere festival. So they wont be playing TITP if word on the street is correct.

    But t in the park and sonisphere are in different countries technically. The only reason i can't see this working is i don't know if james's voice can go 3 nights in a row. Ah well at least i have options if they decide on a different lineup for oxegen.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 16,264 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Yea what about Sonisphere in the RDS? Technically you have 3 stages Main Arena , Simmonscourt and Main Hall.

    There would be no camping .

    The fact that Oxegen have made no announcement similar to TITP looks like that there might be one next year but they would be stupid not to have a festival of any kind. They could do a Bud Rising kinda thing either just a weekend of gigs with a big support bill .

    You clearly were not at her Oxegen performance. I'm not a huge fan but went expecting a good performance and left 10mins in because it was so awful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 278 ✭✭iainconlon12


    There clearly will be an Oxegen 2011 as the oxegen site mentions tickets will be on sale soon!
