    I know - I bet all the partisan Electric Picnic heads are probably kicking themselves now. It definately beats the EP indie lineup (apart from presidents of the universe - Yeah Yeah Yeahs). I'm gleeful as I'll probably go to both.

    great line-up. HOWEVER i wonder would it have sold out with just the indie-as-f**k names and NOT the red hot overcooked peppers etc? or is it a case that MCD can now be discerning with who's playing given they dont have to flog any tickets? me, i think the EP vibe is much better but then i'm older. still, that line-up would almost (i did say almost) make u brave a load of puking 15 and 16 year olds

    what odds them doing like they did with T in the park and suddenly "finding" another 12000 tickets?

    Didn't bother getting tickets this year but it is looking decent. Same with every festival though, as the date approaches you half kick yourself for not bothering

    yeah, amazingly the lineup is better than ep's (who quite stunningly dropped the ball this year, i feel!)... the left moved right and the right has moved left... still, watching some of the better bands (animal collective etc...) in a tent full of pissed up uninterested kids who won't shut up sort of rules oxegen out for me

    i have three points. its a bumper triplepost! :D are the rumours true that there are no unsigned irish bands playing? kinda a shame, always felt oxegen gave a chance to those types. (did they farm them out to the hi-fi's etc?) there doesn't seem to be many young irish bands anyway, apart from the humanzi/director/marshallstars axis. also - has any band ever played electric picnic and oxegen? mlk

    Ah there's loads of bands about. It's just that not many of them are all that good.

    yikes. i think you exactly what i mean, i'm talking about bands who do not have a major label to squeeze them onto a bill like oxegen. there aren't many, but there's usually a few. anyway, allow me to correct myself. are the rumours true that there are no unsigned / independent / pedants playing oxegen?
