Lady Gaga
Noisettes
Friendly Fires

Leaked Set Times for all stages

Don't rely on these! In the past, times have changed after they've been leaked due to "Surprise Guests", eg Sharleen Spiteri guested on Main Stage last year so all the times changed on that stage.

Saw an article on that:

http://entertainment.stv.tv/t-in-the...za-the-action/

Though the more interesting details are further down... chance to be T in the Park's jenga champion? Almost enough for me to pay that exorbitant sell-on price...

Quite cool. Think some of the T Break bands mentioned on that site look good too. Heard good things about Bronto Skylift.

The Killers set was bloomin' brilliant. Loved it!

I was underwhelmed by KOL's performance on Friday. Especially after watching The Killers.

The Killers were absolutely fantastic. Can't believe I wasn't there - I've been to the past couple of t in the park's, and was gutted to have missed this one.

Will watch Snow Patrol tonight - hope it's as good as the killers were!

I watched the Killers last night on the BBC too. I didn't want to though. Part of me was hoping that the BBC would pull away from that dull, tedious pile of pish and show some Nine Inch Nails, or any other bands for that matter of fact (with the exception of the killers, glasvegas and the f****** ting tings- all of whom had an in-proportionate amount of coverage).

Once again, however, they didn't. They fail to grasp the concept of a festival-you go to see a lot of acts, not one or two. I feel like I have witnessed a f****** ting tings concert with that fat mess edith bowman the annoying compere. KILL ME NOW

Agree with the above, Wish the bbc would show some diversity rather than showing the same old festival bands all summer. Ting Tings always seem to be repeated EVERY festival, exact same songs and performance. And i dont understand the Killers at all, people talk about them like their the second coming of the beatles or something, god they are awful.

Hold on, wasn't all that stuff on red button anyway? If you stick to the mainstream channels that the Beeb provided rather than looking on the red button coverage, you only have yourself to blame for missing the acts that you wanted to see.

Myself, I loved the Killers set.

I'm not stupid. The killers were on the main channel and the red button featured 'artists' like the Ting Tings, Glasvegas and Razorlight ad nauseum.

Jane's addiction and Nine Inch Nails-no footage. Im pretty sure they have contributed more in their careers than any of the above bands ever will.

Hold on, maybe if you looked on the red button yourself you would see that it was still only the mainstream popular bands that are shown on bbc2/three repeated in a loop.

there was a spot of both Jane's addiction and NIN on the BBC2 round-up show last night.

which means the Beeb at least must have filmed them.
