    Airbourne Weezer and Architects have been announced for sonisphere which is same weekend as Oxegen. IT HAS TO HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,585 ✭✭✭honru


    Yeah, I could definitely see Weezer being added to Oxegen and TITP. If they do, hopefully they play the same night as Blink.

    Weezer and Architects would be solid additions.

    Must say the lineup is shaping up really nicely!

    Yea i doubt Architects(would be cool though) will play but hopefully airbourne pop over this year.

    I also presume Wolfmother will get announced again after having to cancel last year.

    Hey I got a question, im in 6th year at the mo and was thinking, rather than going away, go to Oxegen. But the only problem is I will be 16 (one month away from 17 :mad: )
    So I was thinking is there anyway of me getting into this thing without going with a 21 year old?
    Like would there be anyone around, sound enough to pretend to be my guardian? :L

    You'll be fine. I've been going since I was 16 with no adult/guardian and have yet to be asked for ID. And I dont look old.

    Not to be a buzz kill, but they do check ID at times. They arent strict, but just keep that in mind.

    To be safe, just have some older person to go in with you through the gate :)

    Ye im gona see if I have some older cousins or friends who are going

    Don't go then

    not going at all certainly wouldn't improve they're chances of getting in.

    You'll be fine, I got somebody to walk in with my and friend an I last year, we were 15 and 16, but nobody said anything.

    Even if you are asked for ID off someone just go back and try someone else.You probably won't be asked anyway.

    Pretty likely really, they avoided Ireland on the arena tour last year. Wouldn't be a headliner though.

    I think if they would play they would want to headline imo. Every festival they have played recently are headliner slots. Would have loved to seen them in their hay day but now ive gone off them over the last few years.

    I got in when i was fifteen :) and i look much younger than i am aswell.
    We asked some people in the queue if they would say they were our guardians but they just laughed... But you should be fine!

    Good chance dizzee rascal will play again as he's at belsonic, I know it's like a month apart but they always seem to share a lot of the bands, he pulled a pretty big crowd last year aswell, despite the glorious weather.

    Imo I couldn't see them headlining here. Would love if they did but don't think they're big enough atm.

    They are not my cup of tea but are definitely big enough. Don't think they will play the festival, i don't think they would "fit in" with what Oxegen provides.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,935 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    If Dizzee plays i could see maybe a headline slot on Vodafone or Green Room . Or a co headline with Paolo on the Vodafone stage

    Don't think he would quite headline the Vodafone stage. I'd say he will get the same slot as last year if he plays. Latish on the Main Stage.
