Apparently the above is "subject to change".
Out of all those bands, only 12 will get picked to play T in the Park. The rest over the weekend will be hand-picked by DF Concerts.
One of those band, Alyssa's Wish, will be supporting Jarcrew at the DiS gig at the Windmill, London, on June 25th. *plug plug*
DiScuss: Have you played T-Break before? Good experience? Bad? Is it just a glorified battle-of-the-bands? Is it worth it? Do people take it too seriously?
