I do want to though. I was looking at plane tickets, as that's my only real barrier. Ugh, maybe something magical will happen. I still might go ahead and get a ticket for the show.

And Sav ..... ...haha aw thanks Ames for remembering me ...and me I really want to go how much are tickets? Can you only do one day tickets (just because I am assuming the whole weekend would be more expensive) I really want to go but I have to see if my finances allow

We got shafted Jenn I may be able to go, if my grad trip ends up happening...either this or the O2...

isn't the O2 sold out though?

"sold out" is basically an outdated term at this point, there are always tickets still available no matter what

lol true, but again with the finances, I just can't spend a lot of money on tickets and prices run exorbitantly high when the demand does. I swear I am going to end up living in a box with merely my ipod to keep me warm.

Gah I know what you mean....our Kings addictions suck the life out of our wallets....I mean we could probably be on the verge of getting evicted with nothing but a jar of mayonnaise in the fridge and we'd still be calculating how much it'd cost to go to the next show
...or maybe that's just me

I know what you mean. Even in NYC, Ruth was talking about Oxygen and I was like "sure". I must be mad.

For ticket details particularly the pre-sale check out www.oxegen.ie. Full camping weekend tickets are rather expensive so I am gonna go for the KOL headline day. I can't remember how much they were last year but I think they were around E90. If you have the SOF single the live version of Knocked Up is from last year's Oxegen. The atmosphere was incredible.

my biggest obstacle is the fact that my boyfriend will literally break up with me if i announce i'm going to spend more money on KOL-related trips.
i swear. i will send the kings of leon the bill for the cost of my broken heart.

Am I the only one who is a little intimidated by festivals? I mean I have to experience it at least once, but I've heard so many horror stories and have never been to one so...

^^^ Laura bring him with you. Pretend it's a vacation and then tell him about the gig! That's what I did with my friends in NYC!

Sav festivals are really fun if you are in the spirit. Plus if you were only getting a day ticket you wouldn't have to camp out in possibly horrible weather. Oxegen last year was a blast, thee best ever.

Oxegen last year was a blast, thee best ever. Good to know...I just don't want to get peed/puked on or have anything stolen from me Is the drinking age 18 there also?

Yea drinking is 18 and general admission age is 17.
Well getting p*ssed on is not reserved for festivals, I got peed on at the KOL show in Glasgow! Yuck! Can't say I've ever had that happen, or anything like it, at a festival. However, in saying that I wouldn't camp, it's not pretty.

Post by Savanna on Feb 4, 2009 21:01:47 GMT
Yeah I don't think I would camp....hmm at least by that point I'd be eligible for general admission...
I should write down all the gigs I'm contemplating...this is gettin messy!

^^^ I know how you feel. My bank balance is pretty messy! No, what am I saying - it's frightful and all because of my need to hear KOL live every couple of months!

I really really really want to go to Oxegen. I have to look into airfares, hotels, and transport I guess. Ugh I just want to mail myself over there or something!! Ruth, I have actually been looking at the show you mentioned on youtube, it is definitely not helping my rational financially responsible side, lol.
Also I figure I have wanted to visit Ireland for years now, why not take this opportunity to go?
