    Hey to all you lucky people who got to go to Oxegen, just wanna know what everyone thought of the acts and general feedback, I heard Muse were brilliant among others. I was one of the poor suckers who was like Ill leave it to the last week to buy a ticket:( I surely learned my lesson!

    There weren't any metal bands there were there? I wouldn't have minded getting a free ticket to that, i would've just gotten so drunk that I wouldn't have remembered all the ****e "bands" that played. Not worth paying for imo though.

    I got a free ticket for the Sunday ....... excellent laugh ... got some great grass too

    Drifted in and out of the tents catching 20mins or so of a few different acts ...

    Waiting Room are the most aptly titled band to come along in years .... it felt exactly like being in a waiting room .... bye !!!

    Wu Tang Clan - absolute sh.ite - thought I might have some tolorence for a bit of Rap ... but they were just nonsense.

    Ash - saw a bit of them (thanks to the rain ) - they were OK ...

    Jimmy Cliff - fuc.kin superb ... I can't believe no-one mentioned him here yet ... the fuc.kin tent was jammed for him , I know I wasn't the only one there !!!

    Then rounded it off with The Darkness - great show , great guitarists - super riff-a-rolla , really enjoyed it but having seen them in Vicar St too and being able to predict the entire set , I think the boys desperately need a 2nd album ...... before it's all stale.

    Wasn't much impressed with Ash...they have good riffs and potential, but I cant get with the singer's voice.

    Kings of Leon were quite good..but they're not really my thing

    PJ Harvey was well hot...dressed to the nines. Two drummers on stage really added to the power of her songs. FYI, she has announced a gig in Olympia for Sep 1st. Tickets on sale now €40.

    Yeah, I was there too. I only saw the last 15 mins but he was very entertaining. I would have been there for longer but it was really hard to get in!
