    So apparently Amanda Brunker is playing with some corporate wedding band.

    Even by Oxegen standards that's a stupid f*cking booking.

    Who the hell wants to see some fecking wedding band at a festival?

    Apparently she's selling sofas and replaing jessie j.

    Those going to see jessie j in the first place have no real grounds for complaint.

    All that's really missing from this now is Twink... She could do a rendition of Zip your mickey up.

    Don't leave anything valuable in your tent regardless of where it is. People are assholes, i've learned that over the years.

    Completely true, they disguise themselves as tents or gazebos and steal everything not bolted down. 3 small leaving cert students were stolen last year.

    Bring your tent too, just to be safe.

    Also quoted as saying "the worst possible thing that has ever happened" Some tents are also suspected of being tapped by the NOTW the last 2 years. I swear this oxegen place is worse than cell block H.

    Don't be ridiculous.

    No-one just leaves their tent where it is, you should carry that around with you all day too.

    My campsite last time was an intricate and complex obstacle course, kept the scumbags away.

    Seriously though, just don't leave phones, wallets, ipods etc. in your tent.

    RE: Locker

    See the oxegen website links you to a place to order them online. Do they accept cash if you just go up to them? Seems like it could be money well spent especialy split between a few.

    Thanks

    Just wondering when security are checking your bags as you enter the campsite tomorrow, you're allowed bring crates of cans right?
    And are you able to bring 500ml bottles of vodka in? I'm bringing extra lids.. But will they just take the lids and let me keep the drink, or take the drink altogether? I'm hiding it anyway, but just wondering....
