Linkin Park are in Europe the week before Oxegen. Reckon there's a chance of them playing?

Well I would have thought they would have some Irish gig this summer, and since nothings been announced, it could be very possible to see them at Oxegen. I reckon they would be a good draw and would complete our main stage headliners - Foo Fighters, Arctic Monkeys & Linkin Park!!!!!!

I think they are more likely to do a Marlay Park gig.

Yea i think if they booked LP it would be a good pick (even though i would prob skip them if someone else was on) but at least it would be 3 Rock Headliners

I don't see why people think this year will be all pop, dance, R&B stuff.

Only hip hop act announced is Black Eyed Peas. Foo Fighters, Nutini and Artic will no doubt satisfy rock lovers.

Any chance of Glasvegas?They have a new album out.

Absolute Zero

I could be wrong, but they have not announced the European leg of their tour yet. The only stand alone gig they are playing is the Itunes festival night which is free. I imagine they are waiting to see what their calender looks like festivals wise and will build a tour around that.

Hope not, they are not a great live band, seen them support Muse and at Slane. I really don't ever want to sit through them again :P

30stm sold like 4,500 tickets last year in the 02 and subbed the second stage, there's no way they're playing marley park. :pac:

RDS. God Queens of The Stone Age were Savage that day, I would love them to play Ireland in any form this year. Got my hopes up about Oxegen given the relationship between Dave Grohl and Josh Homme

Queens of the stone age would be cool. Tcv were dreadful live though.

because the last few years, there's been more and more pop. commercial rap, and rnb.

paolo nutini - rock?? :eek:
Busted must be heavy metal so.

As unlikely as I think it is, i'm praying the Strokes are announced soon. New single is great and dying to see them again.

Wouldn't say its unlikely. Either them or Pulp will play the festival imo.

The relationship between Josh Homme and Arctic Monkeys too.

So QOTSA a possibility for Oxegen? Fantastic.

I wonder will Editors do any touring this year with the new B-sides collection thingy?

I'm trying to convince myself that it is.

Furious-Red

Yea could see QOTSA under Foo's or maybe 2nd stage headliners vs AM/Coldplay(or whoever the last headliner is)

Me Too:)..Saw the Free Download of the new track available from their site for 48 Hours thing earlier in the Week but was busy and forgot:(..anyone got a link to hear it??

Only 10 days to the Big announcement anyways..lookin forward to It..saw that 21st Feb thing on E-Festivals that Furious Red spoke about already..Apparently theres a few "surprises" in there.. Hmmmm the plot thickens!! ..

Primal Scream doing Screamadelica is a Dead Cert to Headline The Green Room ..Gap in their Tour Schedule and always gonna happen..What an Album that was..In Fact Gonna listen to it Right Now:)

Please God we get Green Day this year (Main stage or elsewhere, I'll see them wherever they play).

I saw the guys at Marlay last year and to this day they are still the best live band I've seen, and that's comparing them to U2, The Fray, Paramore & The Script.

They did play at Oxegen 2005 after the start of their American Idiot World Tour.

They did play at Oxegen 2006 and that was 2 years after the start of their American Idiot World Tour. It would be a nice pattern seen as how 21st Century Breakdown began in 2009.

They played 2005 , 2006 was RHCP and The Who . Id say it will be Coldplay since they are pretty much confirmed for Glasto and we always share 1 headliner

You my young friend. Need to listen to a sh-it load more music and go see a sh-it load more gigs.

I'd say/hope it could be Red Hot Chilli Peppers for the last headliner as they have summer festivals booked, and are due to announce dates soon

Grindylow

Beyoncé is headlining Glastonbury.. Could be likely that she'd be lined up as the pop headliner for Oxegen..
