Would you mind sending me a contact number and a convenient time to ring you to discuss your comments further? Kind Regards, Ciara Davey MCD Productions Ltd. Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin.

    I'm not a member of their message board I'm just a subscriber to their mailing list. After the gig was over they sent me an email asking me to log onto their website and leave feedback about the festival. I left them some honest feedback about how I thought the showers and the new food stalls were a great idea and also how I thought the security was inadequate and how I din't feel safe in the campsite. So do ye reckon I should give her my contact details?

    Yeah don't see anything wrong with that. I guess if they are honestly trying to get feedback to improve the festival for next year then no harm in replying I suppose, might be some free tickets in it for you!

    I suppose it could be possible they are using this as a fact collecting exercise for their case against boards.ie maybe you shouldn't reply afterall.....

    As per Comet there. Anyway, you left your feedback so there's not much more you can do. Also, MCD invited you to give your opinion and there might be an MCD gold pass giving free access to all their gigs for the next year at the end of it!

    If you want to get your point across whether it good or bad why not let them ring you. They cant do anything if you voice an opinion to them. Would love to know what they are up to though.

    as per man-in-the-can... as much as i'm against the big promoters, you've got to give them the benefit of the doubt now and again... maybe it's genuine market research... if it turns out they're amassing a legal case with this info, i'll personally petrol bomb their office... note to mcd - you can take that above comment seriously if you want to sue me...

    Give MCD the benefit of the doubt now and again? How many times do you have to give it to them? w**kers of the highest order. They had ample opportunity to gain feedback on the oxegan msg board which they shut down, the same with boards which they are suing.

    nerraw, you need to sometimes soften your approach, fella... i don't like mcd but even they wouldn't be stupid enough not to realise that you've got to keep on bettering your product to maintain growth...

    They're basically asking people to describe the bad points of oxegen to them while at the very same time, threatening to sue people who discuss the very same things on the internet or in the papers. They can't have it both ways. Perhaps MCD should soften their approach to music fans and provide value for money.

    i'm a walking contradiction, man-in-a-can nerraw, if you think that, stop going to their gigs... seriously... that's the only way to force their hand... ...as mentioned in previous threads, i have found myself going to less and less gigs by mcd / aiken, partly because of the music but also because i prefer supporting the independents who actually seem to care... i aint stupid enough to think that mcd would cut off their nose despite their face, though... or maybe they are... guess we just have to see the results of strollers decision

    I'm also a walking contradiction. I hate them but will still hand over the cash to see a particular act, mainly because there is no other way to see that act.
