Oxegen 2006 - who do you want to play?

Jonny Arson

Well.......

QOTSA again - out of this world this year, should be headliners
Manics - never ever seen them live, I need to hear Holy Bible stuff live badly!
Blur - Hopefully they will have a new album out next year
Red Hot Chili Peppers - New album next year.... maybe Oxegen would be too small but lets dream anyway
Morrissey - nuff said
Muse - new album to promote next year... could be likely.. I wan't them!
Franz Ferdinand - Most likely band to be on next year bill for sure
Babyshambles - even though they suck outdoors any excuse to see Pete play is good for me
Carl Barat - solo album out later this year and he's an absolute genius aswell
Beastie Boys - they would go down so well at Oxegen
Chemical Brothers - They are the traditional festival band aren't they
Weezer - I was hoping they would play this year, need them in in 06'
Kings of Leon - Same as above^
The Coral - Same as above^
The Thrills - Almost certainties
Arctic Monkeys - you may not know them now but in 12 months you will... absolutley outstanding young band
Hard Fi - They will be huge this time next year

Class of 05' to come back again - Kasabian, Kasier Chiefs, Razorlight, Rilo Kiley, Bloc Party, The La's.

Burago

My dream would be a hip-hop tent with the following:

The Roots (played Oxegen 2004 or Witnness 2003)
Talib Kweli
Aesop Rock
Mos Def
Felix Da Housecat
The Beastie Boys
De La Soul
DJ Shadow
Blackalicious


I could die happy....

Oh and NWA with the original line up. By the year 2006 we should definitely be able to bring gang bangers back from the grave!

Creamy Goodness

Weezer - I was hoping they would play this year, need them in in 06'

they are coming to the point in august just incase you didn't know.

I hope weezer don't play next year, and only libertines type bands play. i'd really like to see that kind of lineup.

Misticles

anyone know wat the early bird price is for oxegen tickets?

susanna

€145 for camping

Misticles

thats the mormal price!! the early bird price?!!

honru

The price this year is the early bird price, since they are going up in cost next year.

They could be planning a three-day festival. Either that or they're milking the festival for all it's worth...

Exactly! Every new band is hailed as the 'Next Big Thing' these days. They release one mediocre album, do a tour and are never heard from again. This breed of band can usually be identified by a 'The' in their title...

Ro: maaan!

I don't know how this idea caught on.


Charlotte Hatherly would be good alright. Garbage too. Would deffinitly like to see them at some point. Never really thought of Offspring playing a festival. I'd say they'd be good at it.


Price will go up 10 euro every year from now on I'd say. It's not really gonna not sell out after this year. Doubt they'll do a three day one. Especially for 145. They'd be at least 200 if it was three days.

gary the great

Placebo and muse have new albums out so they will play id say, possibly with Muse Headlining and Placebo second hEADLINERS, that would be so good.

Creature

Only Pearl Jam, Radiohead or Nine Inch Nails would make me want to go next year.

That would give me a happy..

Imagine if Tool played? Of course, MCD wouldn't dream of putting on a good band and instead would prefer to have ****ty-ass indie crap like the Libertines, Razorlight etc...

Well after The Strokes and The White Stripes et al hit it big back in 2001 there's just been a ridiculous abundance of indie bands that begin with "The". Quite simple really. Unfortunetly not many of these bands are very good.

There's talks of it, at least for T in the Park of which Oxegen is modeled after. If it does happen, I doubt they would be selling tickets for €200 but, hey, we are talking MCD here. I'd reckon €160 or thereabouts.

Ro: maaan!

It costs €150 to buy an Oxegen ticket for next year now. The "full" price for next year will be €160. I assume it'll go up to €170 the year after. If the year after also gets another day added onto it I really can't see it being any less than €190. And 200 is a round enough amount.

Spicy Lauren

Bjork and Death in Vegas
Bowie would be nice too...

Now we're talking!

Ro: maaan!

ffs, Can't we all just get along? Some people would like to see Pete Doherty, others wouldn't. It's not the first time there's been a difference of opinion. Get over it. Seems as though this argument is popping up in way too many threads...

I'd like to see them get rid of the dance tent altogether so most of the skangers won't turn up...

GerryManderer

I honestly couldn't care anymore because there will be real music at Oxegen next year when The Hoff headlines instead of Tool!

Motley Crue

Velvet Revolver, they opened the mainstream door when they played at Live 8!

Smurfpiss

pixies
radiohead
pink floyd (magically reformed)
turn
brendan benson
air
godspeed you black emperor (dunno how they'd sound live-bout wow!)
interpol
autamata
tenacious D
tool would be cool too.
somehow these would magically not clash!

Blisterman

Gotta have the D.

Dave

Arcade fire would be cool. Bell X1 too.

But if we're talking crazy, then a reformed Led Zeppelin where somehow they resurrected John Bonham.

k_money

hahaha I'm sure his son or phil collins could fill in alright!!!!

The Mars Volta, I missed them the last year they did it.
Faithless, they were class last year
Opeth, I'd say they'd rock out one of the smaller tents, they'd have a big enough fan base and it's growing as well.
Morrissey, one word: genius
