Oxegen 2008: Likely line-up revealed
The first batch of acts for Scotland's T In The Park Festival have been announced, giving a strong indication of who'll be coming to Punchestown this year.
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 15 Feb 2008
The two festivals have alternated nearly their entire Saturday and Sunday lineups in past years, so take it as a near-certainty you'll be seeing the likes of Rage Against The Machine, The Verve, The Prodigy, Interpol, The Chemical Brothers, Hot Chip and the National strut their stuff alongside already-confirmed R.E.M. and Kings Of Leon in July.
Other acts named for T In The Park include Kaiser Chiefs, Pigeon Detectives, The Raconteurs, The Fratellis, Stereophonics, The Kooks, Primal Scream, Ian Brown, Biffy Clyro, Counting Crows, KT Tunstall, Feeder, The Enemy, The Feeling, Amy MacDonald, Panic At The Disco, Aphex Twin, The Charlatans, The Pogues, Ben Folds, The Wombats, Reverend And The Makers, Pendulum, Justice, DJ Hell, Erol Alkan, Band of Horses, Seasick Steve, Eddy Grant, Alabama 3, Sons And Daughters, The Courteeners, Slam, Paul Heaton, Lightspeed Champion, The Ting Tings, Black Kids, Sergeant, The Law, Gabriella Cilmi, Sons of Albion and The Script.
A hefty haul indeed, but there should be plenty of room on Oxegen's newly-expanded three day bill. The festival takes place from July 11-13. Festival goers registered on the Oxegen website will have limited pre-sale access to tickets from Monday March 3 at 8am until 8pm on Thursday March 6, subject to availability and limited to four tickets per person. Tickets then go on general sale on Friday March 7 at 8am.
