    The Official Line-Up is announced in February or March, usually a week or 2 beofre General ticket sales. But i think that for Oxegen 09, Kings of Leon were announced in November/December 08, in time for the limited sale tickets that are out before x-mas.

    I think i'm all Oxegen's out TBH, i've been in 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009 & 2010.
    But if we get Foo Fighters, Queens of The Stone Age, Them Crooked Vultures, Daft punk or even Weezer or Arctic Monkeys, i would consider it.

    I'm happy enough with Blink, could be worse.

    RHCP confirmed that they have been booked to play a MAJOR UK festival. So they are definately a possibility, but so is every glastonbury/reading/download/v fest/ iow headliner.

    Pulp are subbing at IOW, on before the Foo's. Blink 182 are big enough to headline. There 02 gig in Dublin actually completely sold out.

    It would be great if they weren't headlining cause that's another huge band. But i'd be (pleasantly) suprised if they weren't.

    I think it would be more likely to see them play either before a band like Foo Fighters on the main stage or headline the second stage.

    Last year The Prodigy and Black Eyed Peas headlined the second stage and they both had played O2 gigs that had sold out afaik.

    I think the black eyed peas played two nights at the 02 actually.

    Still, Blink 182 having headlining R/L last year, they're still likely to headline. But i would be pretty happy if they were a second stage headliner.

    Blink will make or break me going this year. If they're announced I'm going, even if every other act consists of the casts of HSM, Glee and Justin Bieber.

    Yeah, that makes The Strokes likely at least, since they have a new album coming out. I recall hearing that Arctic Monkeys are not big fans of Oxegen, is there any truth to that?

    Yeah I've heard that as well, something to do with being hit with a bottle or two when they played it a few years ago.

    I'm all for having Hip Hop artists at Oxegen, thought Eminem is my favourite of any headliner they've had, but Alicia Keys and Rihanna? Seriously?

    Beady Eye will be a headline act, hence why theyve no Irish gig announced for their tour. Also Kasabian are headlining Isle of Wight and are supposed to have a new album for early summer so theyre a possibility
