    Anywhere on this landmass would do me just nicely. I suspect they'd be a bit wasted at Oxegen.

    They played Oxegen 2005 in one of the tents and clashed with The Killers that year

    really ****in hope not,what a waste if they played oxegen.electric picnic or their own gig,please.

    elbow and 2 many djs are probably likely to be confirmed in the next announcement i reckon.

    Nope he played 08 and 10
    Sorry I just thought he was, your right. My bad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 audreykerr


    Doubt it he played last year.

    When did this rule of "they/he/she played last year" come in?
    This is Paolo Nutini's third year in a row playing Oxegen.
    B.E.P somehow are playing again this year.
    The Coronas played 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010...

    Could MCR be heading the vodafone stage while black eyed peas are on? Would be a pretty perfect clash for me i think...:)

    Both on the main stage I would have thought. They'd both pull in the same crowd so no point having them against each other.

    I don't think he does live sets anymore so I'd imagine the dance arena, yeah

    ~Any ideas who'll be on on the saturday? Bar the Foos and Monkeys obv. Hoping for the EELs

    Been reading back in the thread is there a general feeling that QOTSA will be announced?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 16,268 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Yea Script will play before BEP.
    Hopefully either Elbow/QOTSA clash with BEP

    Maybe he was saying we could rule them out for oxegen


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭UpTheSlashers


    You mean they posted up my wonderful piece of art that posted here last year sometime........:D what a bunch of dumb-a$$e$

    [Lovely poster]
    At the bottom of the poster it says Oxegen 2010 is subject to license :p

    I was saying it for that reason, but it looks to be irrelevant now as Mona are playing Slane as well as Oxegen

    Yeah but little bands like mona don't have exclusivity written into their contracts.

    Blink should still be playing, it just hasn't been announced yet. Hopefully we will hear something soon, I'd say they will still be there;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 206 ✭✭Tenks


    My trustworthy source has told me that blink won't be playing Oxegen, but they will be playing a Dublin gig to accommodate missing out.

    Whether that means the o2 or Marley Park remains to be seen.

    Marlay Park is hosting those small gigs in the tent this year. They wouldn't play that. I'd love a Malahide Castle show or something, if the Oxegen rumour is true

    But they're off for that couple of days on oxegen weekend.......would make no sense for them to do the o2 then? (as clashing with oxegen always equals a bad idea for ticket sales :pac:)
    Unless they come back later in the summer after some more summer fests.......

    Their own gig would be better experience i guess...but still....

    Yeah they'd presumably add a date at the end of the tour.

    When are more acts going to be announced?

    ALSO

    Ke$ha is playing Glastonbury & T in the Park. Shes playing in the UK on the 9th and so will be around for Friday 8th and Sunday 10th. What are the chances of her playing Oxegen do you think?
