"Ireland's Biggest Festival"?
This article claims Oxegen is Ireland's biggest festival. It cites Jim Carroll in The Irish Times in 2008. Jim Carroll is wrong. The biggest festival, and biggest music festival at that, is the
- Apparently Jim is not the only one to think Oxegen (and Electric Picnic) are the festivals to beat... "Aside from Oxegen and the Electric Picnic, this will be probably the biggest music festival anywhere in Ireland this summer"... it is only possible for Wikipedia to be as reliable as the so-called reliable sources which exist... --•wicke 02:08, 27 July 2009 (UTC)]
