While musing on why the hell FA Cup Quarter Final replays are being held on a Monday, we also stumbled across the line ups for this year’s 02 Wireless Festival.
Taking place over four days in London and three days in Leeds (sadly, Leeds folk don’t get to see Faithless), the bill sees exclusive festival shows by both the Kaiser Chiefs and also The White Stripes. It kinda looks pretty good actually.

The white stripes one looks top stuff
I don't really want to go to wireless on principle, but if the white stripes don't announce any other dates before friday I think I will be forced to give in.
I wonder
if they're going to do the free tickets thing again this year?
For anyone
Last year I got a ticket for the Gnarls Barkley/Massive Attack day but then I couldn't go so I gave it to someone on here. I'm not an 02 customer. It was an interweb thing.
they'll give free tickets out again if no one buys a ticket
again.
so maybe we should all avoid buying them and wait for the freeness.
i fancy the thursday. maybe the sunday to see the rakes and the cribs.
Daft. punk. are. playing.
Excitement
QOTSA?
In Leeds?
Sweeeeeeeeet.
White Stripes/QOTSA
sounds like a reasonable day out
