Does anyone know where I can get the stage times for each act? Thought I read somewhere that they were supposed to be giving this info but nothing so far on the Oxegen website. Maybe I was just dreaming....

They said they're sending them out to all email subscribers this week. Friday 7pm is my guess

They were supposed to be sending them out to subscribers from the 4th!.. but remember, this is oxegen, they think you should be happy to be getting stage times at ALL...let alone free ones

And a tip for the weekend. If you buy the stagetimes...which is very handy...don't have it around your neck. You'll get hundreds of requests from people to check out the times, who will then proceed to check out every stage, for every hour and for the next day.

Ohh... very good counter truth there comet!!!
Couple of years back one of my mates, who happens to frequent this very messageboard, brought a xylophone to oxegen for that very purpose... but while initial results were promising, more men then girls tried to use the bloody thing...disaster

But could they play it?
Could ya not have just gone up to girls and said "If I told you you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me" or something similar?

Seeing it laid out like that makes me realise precisely how little there is on the lineup that I'd like to see.

I can't make it this year but seeing the line-up there actually highlights a number of acts I wouldn't mind seeing.

Precisely. Seeing it like that really highlights how poor the line-up is. Obvious, crowd-pleasing indie acts with a smattering of Q-endorsed MOR pop acts like Orson, Corinne Bailey Ray and Sandi Bloody Thom. Then there's the usual,tokenistic second rate Irish acts with possible exception of BellX1. And The Who who will have a lot of the drunken kids scratching their heads, easily old enough to be the Grandfathers of the vast majority of the punters.
They didn't die.

skipping it in favour of !!! in TBMC, who were thankfully rescued from that ocean of ho-humness. And not forgetting the world cup final.
i'm sure it'll be a fun weekend tho.

Im going to oxegen, and to be honest im more looking forward to the weekend, then the music of the weekend. Thats because I dont think its a particularly strong line up. There are a number of bands im looking forward too such as the spinto band, the artics (if i can get in the door), Gomez, the futureheads (if they dont play the new album), whipping boy... amongst others, but in general there just aint enough there for me. Its gotten a tad predictable for me, or maybe im just growing out of it...anyway, i reckon this could be my last year of it as i reckon i might just get the oreign festival out of the way next year before the gray hairs set in

yeah, the new band stage looks the best.
Just got a press release about Oxegen news and it looks like they've um, 'adopted' some Electric Picnic staples - cinema, silent disco and, of course female urinals. There's also 300 communal showers on site. No more babywipes.

There is a Door to the Main Stage ?
Is it like Mr. Benn's Door, or the one Bosco used to visit the Camels in the Zoo every day ...
