    That'd be amazing, dunno if it's likely though!

    She's headlining Glastonbury, so I doubt she'd settle for anything less than a headline spot at Oxegen? :confused:

    Jay Z headlined Glasto and subbed Oxegen

    Maybe the Sunday with Coldplay if The Strokes are moved to Friday?

    If she is, I'd say maybe the Saturday headlining the Vodafone Stage up against Foo's?

    I actually prefer the idea of Beyonce sub-headlining the sunday with Coldplay.

    I think it would be fair if Beyonce was announced because that would even the odds for pop and rock fans and lets face it there will be a mix of them at the festival.

    I'm actually more concerned about Beady Eye and whether they will headline any stages or just play on the new bands stage.

    Sorry mods, this may have been asked/answered already but I dont fancy reading the entire thread:), have the day breakdowns for bands been decided yet? If so, can someone put a link up or if not anyone know when this will be announced? Cheers

    Page 115 has a rough breakdown of who's announced what days so far on their sites, etc.

    TITP added 7 Scottish acts to the line up this morning. Therefore, you would imagine, Irish acts like the Coronas, Republic of Loose and maybe Snow Patrol could appear with the likes of Beyonce and maybe RHCP if any sort of "major" announcement is being made...

    I'm sorry to down people's hopes but the RHCP will not be announced for Oxegen.

    If they were to play it would be as a headliner, hardly the Vodaphone stage. They played in 2006 as headline and after that I couldn't imagine them asking for any less.

    Irish acts yes definitely, Snow Patrol may be a possibility with a new album out.

    Yea there is no way Chilis will play this year since all headline slots are gone and wont play any lower.

    Irish acts i think we might get away without having the corona's since they are doing Marlay Park. Snow Patrol wont play , would be happy of Fighting With Wire , The Answer , In Case Of Fire , ASIWFA were added

    But they are a new band :P

    Not sure about them headlining any of the stages though, wouldn't be a worthy act to do so IMO.

    They won't headline any stage. I imagine they will be quite high up on the second stage

    One of the papers (I think its The Sun) has a side story on their front page tomorrow with the headline "Naas Booty Beyo".

    I wouldn't mind some of those Scottish acts.
    Chances though.

    Must say even if ya dont like her its a massive coup for TITP/Oxegen since we now have 2 Glasto headliners and 2/3 Reading and Leeds headliners

    Yeah, they have done really well this year :eek:

    I wouldn't be too pushed on Beyonce myself but if she doesn't clash with anyone I don't want to miss I'll probably check her out, just to say I've seen her :p

    Yeah it's on the website. Should have checked.

    That's insane that we have an r/l headliner and 2 Glastonbury headliners on the same day. :confused:
