Stomping rockers Kasabian have been the first band announced as headliners for T in the Park 2010 - giving their fans an early Christmas present.
During their gig at Glasgow's SECC earlier this month, Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan asked the audience “Who wants to see us at T in the Park next year?”
With some hearty cheers indicating such a move might pack some punters into their festival, organisers DF Concerts and founding partner's Tennent's Lager have this afternoon announced that Kasabian will be one of the headliners for T in the Park 2010, which takes place at traditional site Balado from Friday 9th to Sunday 11th July.
Kasabian last visited Balado in 2007 with a headline set on the Radio 1/NME Stage just before the release of second album 'Empire'.
Two number one albums and countless outstanding gigs across the planet later, the band will step on to the Main Stage at T in the Park in July next year for what promises to be a historic moment for the band.
Tom Meighan said of their headline slot: “T in the Park holds a special place in our hearts, we've always said how much we'd love to headline it and now we are.
“We can't wait, we're going to play a blinder and it's going to be massive for us and for the crowd.”
Geoff Ellis from DF Concerts added: “I'm chuffed to bits that we can announce one of our headliners this early on.
“Kasabian blow me away every time I see them and they're going to be amazing headliners.”
He added: “We've had lots of fans tell us they want to see Kasabian headline T in the Park so it's great to be able to give them an early Christmas present!”
