The first acts have been confirmed for this year's Oxegen festival in Ireland.
The two-day event, which takes place at Punchestown Racecourse, Co. Kildare on 7th and 8th July, will combine the heady allure of indie A-listers like Bloc Party and Klaxons with the stale whiff of chart no-marks James Morrison.
Yeah, that's right Morrison, I said no mark!
Here's a list of those billed to play so far, in no particular order:
Muse
Interpol
Snow Patrol
Fratellis
Daft Punk
Babyshambles
Arcade Fire
Klaxons
Razorlight
Scissor Sisters
CSS
Bloc Party
James Morrison
My Chemical Romance
Tori Amos
Kings of Leon
Amy Winehouse
Kooks
Goo Goo Dolls

quite high.
DAFT
PUNK!
I'd love to see them live, thoughn this festival is meant to be horrible.
it's............... good......
though thing is, like, Slane, irish people tend to use it as a 'weekend away' - if they like the bands or not. that's the feeling i got when i was there last.
yeah thats what I heard
Electric Picnic was nothing like that though, that was a fantastic fesitval.
i might go to that instead
esp. as i just saw the name 'razorlight' which i had missed before. ugh.
you should
!
i may do.
*runs off to google*
Eww looks like T
Is'nt that the T in The Park ine up as well...?
pretty much.
T and Oxegen
always have pretty similar line ups, if not identical.
So, just how are Snow Patrol headlining over Muse?
Who's headlining the second day?
I'd like to go to this..
but finances may be an obstacle..
I heard Radiohead were meant to be playing. If they are announced soon I'm there.
Oxegen is rubbish
the campsite is a warzone
sheeet
i'm going, but amy winehouse should fuck off.
