THEY found every which way to get into Punchestown at the weekend.

Some were even caught scaling the fences around Oxegen, as thousands of music-lovers descended on the race-course to enjoy the most extravagant assembly of musical talent seen in this country.

While the Gods were unkind, particularly on Saturday, that did little to dampen the spirits of over 60,000 revellers who packed the venue over two days.
