Yeah Yeah Yeahs are set to play Oxegen, woohoo!They're one of my favourite bands EVER, and I've only seen them once at Electric Picnic, which was one of the highlights of my life maybe (too much?) so I can't wait to see them again. I'd fucking walk over broken glass to see them play.
Also confirmed this morning are Razorlight, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Pete Doherty, Elbow, The Ting Tings, White Lies, Fight Like Apes, Pendulum and Jason Mraz.

Excellent news about YYY- wasnt planning on hitting Oxygen but I will be now! Should be lots of new tunes to boot with their album coming out soon:-)
I can't wait. They are possibly my favourite band in the world (that are still going.)

'Zero'
'Heads Will Roll'
'Soft Shock'
'Skeletons'
'Dull Life'
'Shame And Fortune'

There's a great cover of 'Sheena Is A Punk Rocker' on their MySpace at the mo: http://www.myspace.com/yeahyeahyeahs
Cool- thanks Una- blocked from MySpace in work so couldnt check...only recently unblocked from blogspot at least:-)
Have been following YYY from their first ep and while I thought Show Your Bones was a bit of a let down I am hoping Its Blitz will make up for it...seeing them live again will be f'n fantastic anyway! Gonna have Miles Away playing in the head all day now:-)
I love love love Show Your Bones. Fever To Tell is amazing too though. I'm hearing It's Blitz! will be more FTT than SYB.
That said, Karen O has been working on some pretty lo-fi stuff recently: http://www.myspace.com/nativekoreanrock
Have you seen the Kill Your Idols documentary Una? Karen (much like everyone in the film) doesn't come off well in it.
No, haven't seen it...
