Franz Ferdinand are to play Glastonbury this weekend (the three-day festival started properly today).

The band announced their intention to perform on the Park Stage later today (June 27) on their official website. They're expected on stage at just after 10pm.

If you're not at Glastonbury - and if you are, put away whatever you're reading this on before it gets ruined - you can catch the band elsewhere:

June
28 Cardiff The Point - 02920 460 873
29 Leeds Faversham - 0113 243 3993

If you are at Glastonbury and can comment below... how're things so far?

rumour has it that Babyshambles are up to their old cancelling-things tricks once more.

hence why Franz are taking their place.

looked pretty fun on the telly, I must say. Weather wasn't great, but in the 'hey its Glasto and the weathers a bit shitty, lets make the most of it!! hurrah!' way, not 'oh shit its all fucking wet' way... still, not enough bands to appeal to me.

Everyone seemed to be having a good time, anyway. Which is nice.
