In slightly less official news:

Thursday, 29 May 2008

...Meanwhile, Babyshambles have pulled out The Mighty Boosh Festival on 5 July because Pete’s rival Johnny Borrell and his band Razorlight are on the bill.

‘Pete detests Johnny with every fibre of his being,’ a source tells The Sun. ‘He was keen to perform because he’s a huge fan of the Boosh. But when he discovered that Johnny was going to be there, he bottled it.’

The pair fell out at the Leeds Festival in 2005.

First of all, since when were Babyshambles gonna be at the fest?? Second, since when are Razorlight on the bill? I know there have been rumours of them being on the bill, but there hasn't been anything official....hmmmm.

***UPDATE*** Har Mar Superstar has also been added to the lineup.

***ANGRY UPDATE*** Har Mar Superstar has REPLACED Robots in Disguise, who will no longer be appearing....GRRRRRR!!!!!!!

Please, Oh Please, Let the Rumours Be True

The Sun is not exactly the most reliable newssource, but I really want this article to be true (because I heart Razorlight)!

According to an article in the Sun:

NOEL FIELDING has invited his nemesis JAMIE HINCE to perform at THE MIGHTY BOOSH festival.

THE KILLS have been added to the bill of the madcap bash at The Hop Farm in Kent on July 5 — being organised by Noel and comedy partner JULIAN BARRATT.

There’s little love lost between Jamie and Noel as KATE MOSS’s other half reckons the funnyman is a bad influence on his bandmate ALISON MOSSHART.

But Noel has thrown caution to the wind and invited the group to play.

Noel and Julian have had very little time to sort out the event but they seem to have pulled it off.

Most acts confirm festival appearances more than six months in advance and Noel was seriously concerned that they wouldn’t be able to fill the bill.

He said: “I was beginning to think ‘Oh c***’ but it’s looking good now.”

GARY NUMAN, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE and RAZORLIGHT have all confirmed they want a piece of the psychedelic action.

With Boosh character Naboo reading palms and the likes of PEACHES and PIXIE GELDOF swanning about, it’ll be the real deal.

And Noel is pinning his hopes on a singalong with legendary Brit singer and composer Gary for the grand finale.

He said: “I’m going to try and do a duet with Gary. That would be a dream.

“Julian loves him too and would be well up for it.”

Noel is a top bloke and the event will be a triumph.

Numan on stage with The Boosh? I’d pay just to see that.

Of course, RatM confirmed they AREN'T going to be playing . . . lets hope that Razorlight doesn't do the same.
