    Anyone else agree Primal Scream should be on Picnic and not Oxegen?. Have a feeling the young crowd won't appreciate the Screamadelica album.

    its a classic album and i consider myself young enough. i say they will get a crowd of about 2000 to their gig

    Yes! They could have headlined the EP, instead of playing some two-bit slot at Poxegen.

    They were one of the headliners a couple of years ago at the EP, so that might have something to do with it

    Does anyone know if there are bus companies going from Cork to Oxegen that charge less than Kellys? 50 euro return is an absolute rip tbf, and I'm sure it was only 30 last year. Or are there any non-bus forms of transport?

    You could get the train to Dublin, a bus to Naas and the shuttle bus from Naas to Punchestown, although that'd probably just end up costing you the same amount of money and it's far more inconvenient.

    I am 60/40 in favour of not going to Oxegen this year. Just not as pumped for it as I was the last couple of years. Who knows though, might end up in the spur of the moment getting a ticket

    I think it's only at the outlets. Come to the the one in Cork tbh :*

    Also random question, how do people bring dry shampoo if aerosols aren't allowed?

    I hope it doesn't work and you end up sleeping in a hole in the ground...why didn't you just get a 4-day ticket?

    Yeh, I'll have to bring a roll-on even though I hate them. I need dry shampoo though. Need it.
