This tip arrived with us under an unusually strict embargo: we were ordered, on pain of death or disgrace, not to run the tip until 00:01 on 10th July. Well, it’s a minute past midnight, so let’s rock and roll…
Organisers of the ever-so-hip Lovebox Festival in London have just announced that – as if having pop megastars Duran Duran headlining on Saturday night (alongside up-and-comers Florence and the Machine and established force N*E*R*D) wasn’t enough – that the 80s legends are to be joined onstage by it-guy DJ Mark Ronson (yes, the one whose sister had that thing with Lindsay Lohan). This seems a little out of our sphere, but we can’t help but wonder what kind of chaos the two will cause…
The festival, now in its seventh year, is set to rock London’s Victoria Park on 18th/19th July. Who needs to trek into the back of beyond for Glastonbury’s mud and massiveness or Download’s hard-rocking elitism, when you can catch the Tube to the centre of London and rock out in the sunshine.
