Sweet, gonna have to try pull a few strings now to get a free day pass from somewhere

Makaveli

damn, tempting I have to say.

Only heard about those lads last week. Bunch of mental bastards they are.

CiaranMT

As long as they're not on a main stage they'll be fine I'd say. Their stuff would fly straight over the heads of your typical Oxegen attendee.

I'd say if they stuck them in one of the tents later one of the nights, it would be great craic.

They are playing a secret gig in London at the end of May and rumour has it they will be doing two shows in Ireland before heading back to the US that week.

Venue in dublin not confirmed and Venue in Galway is picked but they are still working out money between the venue and the management, but the lads want to do the show.

I'd wager on Roisin Dubh, seems to be the spot for hip hop gigs in Galway.

Correct.
Nothing confirmed, but it might happen.

Jimmy Iovine

Strange that they've been announced. Their music is unreal no doubt but it's not going to appeal to the typical Oxegen goer I reckon.

After seeing the performance on Jimmy Fallon I really want to see them live. It should be mental. Hope they play a smaller gig in Ireland as well before going home.

Shapey Fiend

If you went on what the typical Oxegen goer wanted you'd have nothing but Kings of Leon. As much as I hate Oxegen they tend to consistently have a much more diverse and interesting lineup than Electric Picnic, or any of the other festivals for that matter. They'll probably put them on in the late afternoon somewhere.

But Oxegen is a f*cking dive

Raekwon

I'd say they will go down like a lead balloon at Oxygen which is a shame because they are so f**king swag :pac:

Btw I'd love to see them do a live show in Dublin in say Button Factory or Crawdaddy, that would be insane!

wilmer mclean

Not sure yet do I like them. To be fair I have only seen a couple of their youtube videos. One thing I like about them though is that they're different and have a distinct sound, they're bringing something new to rap which can only be a good thing.

Where can I download their stuff?

Already there dude, or at least as mainstream as they can be. I don't really think you'll ever hear them on t'radio. I also think they'll pass right over the heads of oxegen...

Can't wait to see em at Primavera.

No sign of a Galway show, sorry if anyone was excited. Going over to Primavera myself to see them.
