T In The Park: some bands are going to play it, you know
shadyadie by [redacted] February 26th, 2003
Although nothing has been officially announced as such, whispers are going round as to who's playing Scotland's annual big music festival thing, T In The Park.

As shouted about elsewhere, REM and Coldplay are confirmed as headliners. Jolly good! Coldplay first played the festival in one of the tents, shortly after having a hit with 'Yellow'.

Elsewhere this year, there is speak of The Music headlining the NME stage. It's also rumoured that the Polyphonic Spree - who opened the festival last year - will make their return. *squeals with delight*

Biffy Clyro are heading for the record of Band Who's Played There The Most (rivalled only by Travis), by being verrrry likely to play again this year.

There is also talk of indie old skool types Teenage Fanclub and The Charlatans rattling out the hits, as it were, so you can all have a big sing-song.

The Grim Northern Social, who recently signed to One Little Indian, will step up from the T-Break tent to play the King Tut's tent. They release their debut single on May 5th, and, I expect, you heard that here first (unless it's on their website).

We'll keep you informed of any updates.

The festival takes place in Balado, near Kinross, on July 12th and 13th. (Shit... it's the Truck Festival the weekend following that. Oh my poor liver.)
