I wish I could go, but I don't have the time, money and I'm not allowed by my parents :'( maybe in a few years. I am going to AC/DC (Punchestown) this June though. EDIT What county are you from?

[QUOTE=lazyV;14050538]Northern Ireland.[/QUOTE] Oh, cool.
Would go, Also lazyV Northern Ireland ain't a county. As I was saying, Would go but I'm too young, So are most Irish FP'ers.
[QUOTE=Ryan2406;14050584]Also lazyV Northern Ireland ain't a county.[/QUOTE] Please tell me you're joking.
[QUOTE=lazyV;14050605]Please tell me you're joking.[/QUOTE] County Londonderry, County antrim etc. Still exist as far as I remember.
[QUOTE=Ryan2406;14050677]County Londonderry, County antrim etc. Still exist as far as I remember.[/QUOTE] *Derry. I'd really like to go, except I'm underage, and I may be meeting with tob then.

[QUOTE=MUFC2007;14050710]*Derry. I'd really like to go, except I'm underage, and I may be meeting with tob then.[/QUOTE] Whatever, Derry/Londonderry bleh.
[QUOTE=orbitrek;14050718]I think he thinks I meant country, and it's Derry now. Londonderry is the main city in Derry[/QUOTE] I'm to used to calling it county Londonderry
Oh crap yeah I completely misread. Down.
Must save money to buy a ticket! Already bought my tickets to Oasis in Slane, Now all my friends want to go to this. Damn I need a job. €200 for 3 day non-Camping = Hard rocking/Getting smashed €225 for 3 day camping = Hard Rocking/Getting Smashed/Random Sex/More Getting smashed This doesn't even cover drinking expenses however.
I'm from Tyrone, I'm not a 100% sure I'm going yet but I hear Oxygen doesn't exactly sell out like epic concerts.
[QUOTE=MisterM;14050867]I'm from Tyrone, I'm not a 100% sure I'm going yet but I hear Oxygen doesn't exactly sell out like epic concerts.[/QUOTE] Yeah there was tickets like a week before last year.
If anyone else never noticed this on the site then here's some things to ponder. [url]http://i44.tinypic.com/2ikpcth.png[/url]
[QUOTE=MisterM;14050867]I'm from Tyrone, I'm not a 100% sure I'm going yet but I hear Oxygen doesn't exactly sell out like epic concerts.[/QUOTE] That''s because the venue is massive. Tickets last year went on sale in November 07(Pre-line up tickets, before the line-up is announced)but sold out in May 08.

Blur is still around?
I would go to this. If only I had some money. My mam won't let me get a job until after the Leaving as well. Oh well I'll go next year.
Add me as a possibly going, only going for the sunday to see NIN and the Killers, but might be on Holidays, not sure yet
I'd go but I'd only get a vague sense of enjoyment from the Manics, The Mars Volta and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Maybe if a few of my mates are going again this year I'll go.
I hate being underage :(
Bloc Party is reason enough to go. Unfortunately, I don't live anywhere near this festival. I hope everyone that goes has an excellent time, though!
[QUOTE=Benji;14052599]Bloc Party is reason enough to go. Unfortunately, I don't live anywhere near this festival. I hope everyone that goes has an excellent time, though![/QUOTE] Oh hell yeah. Not so much on the more recent stuff, I'm hoping they play just a few of Intimacy and stick to the good shit.
[QUOTE=Hiccuper;14052232]I hate being underage :([/QUOTE] If you look old enough you'll get in
[QUOTE=ohgodshana2;14072520]If you look old enough you'll get in[/QUOTE] They ID'd EVERYONE last year. Stole my friends umbrella and all.
Elbow :O Too bad I live in Sweden.
[QUOTE=lazyV;14074994]They ID'd EVERYONE last year. [b]Stole my friends umbrella and all.[/b][/QUOTE] Those bastards! I'll probably go when I'm able to, just drag along a few of my friends.
