The pegs of the Green Spheres tent were truly shaken Loose at Oxegen this year. Arriving on stage at 9.30pm and playing for just over an hour, the band mixed it up with tracks from their 2nd and 3rd albums. With one reviewer describing the gig as “worshiping at the alter of Republic of Loose” another review described how “Comeback Girl lasted about three weeks and induced utter pandemonium” Finishing the set with a cover of Michael Jacksons ‘Wannabe Startin’ Something’ the BBC’s ATL review went on to say “There have been some cod tributes to the late Jacko already at this festival, but ‘Wannabe Startin’ Something’ is the genuine article, the lineage and musical debt obvious – but repaid in full”
