pages two and three of that day's paper, stating that Arcade Fire would be appearing at Oxegen 07 and that it would be their only Irish festival performance this year.This was later confirmed as true by Tom Dunne that morning on the breakfast show on Today FM.On February 15, the official Oxegen website's home page disappeared to be replaced with a message that said: "Stand by for Oxegen 2007 news...".Tang Clan and The Gossip.Ocean Colour Scene had also announced themselves on their official website as playing on Sunday July 8, but according to the Oxegen website they were to play on the Saturday (which they eventually did).On April 2, the official Oxegen website announced 18 more bands to play at the 2007 festival.These included: Air, Little Man Tate, Queens of the Stone Age, Enter

Aid where they were sent to Africa to be reused.Arcade Fire performed at Oxegen 07.Rainstorms lashed Punchestown for much of the weekend as the campsite descended into a muddy wasteland by the Friday evening.There were some sunny spells but these were eventually replaced with frequent rain showers which drew fans away from the main stages and into the marquees.The mud saw much cause for fun as, in particular during The Kooks's performance on the Main Stage on the Sunday, music fans frolicked in the tedious conditions and sparked off a sequence of raucous mud fights which led to many being bustled away by stewards.Lovefoxxx of CSS being corrected by the crowd after she asked if they were in Dublin, as well as Bloc Party's rousing performance on the Sunday afternoon as frontman Kele Okereke leaped off the stage and called for the crowd to get "violent".He also stated that their performance, along with many of their other Irish shows, had been one of their best.The Pigeon Detectives's performance was also memorable as frontman Matt Bowman informed the crowd that he was too clean and then asked if anyone in the audience had any mud or muddy trainers that they could throw at him.Later he ran down to the crowd, inviting fans to rub his hair, whilst at the end of their popular single "I'm Not Sorry", he jumped off the stage into the crowd.NME noticeably caked in mud for the rest of the festival.On the Pet Sounds Stage, having managed to drown out Biffy Clyro who were on the NME Stage at the same time, David Kitt had stewards pull his younger brother out of the crowd and up onto the stage so they could perform a song together.NME on the Saturday were surprised to witness Kings of Leon, fresh from their Main Stage set, walking through the crowd to gain access to the backstage area to watch Interpol's set.They briefly stopped for photographs with amazed fans.Interpol's set was also well received and they were one of the first bands to use lights and smoke in their set as the night progressed.The band then went on to watch Bright Eyes perform on the Pet Sounds Stage.Another casualty was Snow Patrol keyboardist, Tom Simpson who was arrested following the band's appearance at Live Earth on the same day as their Oxegen performance.Mika dons Irish colours at Oxegen 07.Among the bands and artists that performed on the New Band Stage were The Wombats, The Horrors, New Young Pony Club, Kate Nash, Cherry Ghost and Air Traffic.Badly Drawn Boy and Tori Amos were involved in an incident backstage.Damon Gough tried to approach Amos backstage to say hello, but was pushed back repeatedly by one of her minders.Gough reportedly said "Tori Amos can wait" as his set ran over, and Amos's crew began setting up around him.When he tried again to approach her backstage as she was getting into a car, he was again pushed back and "banged the car's bonnet" and "threw his Jack Daniels against the windscreen".VIP guests

MCD spokesman Justin Green said: "The reaction from the 80,000 fans is that it's been the best festival to date.However, with the closing of the Oxegen website's forum and an external, unofficial forum set up later, by threat of legal action from MCD, many believe that MCD tried to cover up the problems at Oxegen 2006.It remains to be seen if these complaints will be taken seriously by MCD, or suppressed as happened in 2006.More than 1000 staff and personnel worked around the clock for 24 hours to clear tents, litter and stage equipment from the site.Stages
