Dunno if he's coming down with something (again!) but he was definitely struggling at Oxygen! I thought the crowd sounded a bit more enthusiastic than 'T's anyway!

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed yourself anyway! Who cares what a bunch of Beyonce fans think?

It is good that they are playing to different crowds, but I think they'd go down better at somewhere like Reading and Leeds rather than V Festival. It's just so pop-orientated and I know so many people who go to V Festival just for the likes of N-Dubz, David Guetta etc who would walk away at the mention of a band with guitars.

They definitely should be at Reading and Leeds, silly Manics. It's times like this it would be best if they didn't do gigs rather than accept any that are thrown their way, give the UK a rest and do more foreign gigs!

Was at oxegen yesterday myself and i must say it was a weak performance vocally by james and it was really sad to see everyone leaving after kesha though it did make it easy to get down to the front though it was mostly people waiting on beyonce. pretty lame atmosphere all round.

Regards oxegen festival itself, its overpriced badly laid out and for want of a nicer word its full of some shitheads.

Summed up perfectly. The festival certainly hasn't been missed in recent years!
