I seriously doubt you'd get in. They check ID like mad if your a tweenager. I know people who took the risk and got turned away.

I look older than I am though from what people say to me. [Not saying I look 17 though lol].

See that's what they said on Oxegen radio aswell about the ID and I was like 'Oh ******' and then everyone else is like 'Nah you'll be grand.'

I might just go down with alot of people, one of whom is over 25 I think not too sure, and someone else recommended getting a Fake ID or something.

Aye, I was going to this year but then I fell out with them all because they're all wankers who think they're hippies when an hour ago they were chavs.

So yeah I'll be going with older ones next year instead.

Are you going next year or taking a year off like Karl?

Been to quite a few gigs but never a festival.

Wanted to go to Reading this year but I just haven't got the money.

Also, why do you have to be 17 to go to Oxegen? I'd understand 18, but 17 just seems strange.
