You can't get them yet. I think its March when you get them. The concert is in.... July I think

Cracking line up that. We planned to go to Oxygen a couple of years back but we just stuck with the V Festival!

Who are the 'some others' Mag?

Not to sure on that just yet. Hasn't been confirmed

EDIT: Just realized you could have been making a joke 

Poxygen as it became known on these shores always has a cracking line-up - no doubt on that front. However the behaviour of some of the juvenile, pikey "clientele"  and "security" staff leaves a sh*t load to be desired, tho' 2008 did see an improvement all round. Immature e-heads who can't hold their drink and find it hilarious to rob and fight make it far from comfortable and a long haul.

It's the sister festival to T In The Park (Scotland) so the line-up is the same. So having "done" a lot of festivals down the years my advice would be T In The Park before Poxygen but always, always, always Glastonbury before all else.

I've been at O X E G E N and Witnness (both correct spellings btw) every year it's been on Mags. Every year Mags, without fail. I don't need a vote (got a link for that poll btw?) to know that, as a festival, Oxegen is only the second best in Ireland FFS.

As for the "biggest" in Europe? .....The Punchestown music venue would fit into Glastonbury about 50 times over. It (oxegen) always has the best line-up tho', just like I said.

Each to their own Mags I hope you enjoy this year's gig.

Oh I know I will don't worry

I cant wait for it last year was F***ing mental !

cant wait!!

My brother did security at Oxegen last year and was still suffering mentally weeks after it.  He was unlucky enough to be on the ground instead of in the towers for most of it and he said there were rapings and people stabbed every night.  He had to put fires out and stop fights all over the place.  Says he'll never do it again and judging by the way he reacted to it when he got home, I wouldn't go if you payed me.

Looks like a cracking line up but anybody thats going, be careful.

Really looking forward to it. I'm going on the Sunday to see Nine Inch Nails. Favourite band.

I wanted to go but I'm doing a spanish exchange in my 6th form

Not really a fan of any of the bands there. Apart from Stereophonics (absolutely cracking band) and KOL earlier stuff.

Can't wait for Glastonbury me! Kasabian and Blur with a bit of Bruce Springsteen! Love it!

Blur are going to be at Oxegen too. I can't wait for it this year, have been there 3 times now and I think people exaggerate the amount of trouble way too much. The first year I went there was loads of fires but didn't see many other times. I've never seen a fight let alone stabbings and there is generally just a good friendly buzz about the place. Mag don't let these put you off with stories they've heard, you'll have a brilliant weekend
