Miles Kane will be performing on Sunday 8th July 2012. Stage & Time TBC

Noel gallagher and Two door cinema club are going to the festival near my home too. Can Miles come too please ???

Anyway, that's a very good line up !!! Imagine if Miles + Noel + The Stone Roses would play all the same day

Im a little gutted we wont be going to a festival this year - but i have a bigger priority this year. (my son )

Hope they have better weather too last year it was torrential rain for half of the weekend - i wonder if Miles will get moved to one of the bigger stages this year, i imagine he definately will!

yeah it's for a good reason...i'm probably going to do only the festival near my home to see Franz Ferdinand...

i hope Miles will be on the main stage !! He deserve it it'd be a awesome thing for him...and next time, he'll headline all the festivals!

But no rain ? In scotland ??? Naaa, a festival with rain it's always better and funnier

Dont think he will get mainstage - i think he will be on the NME stage (2nd stage) or in the Kings Tut (3rd) tent! He was in the Redbull Transmissions tent last year which was a tiny stage but made for an awesome set, and where i meet Jamie Cook from Arctic Monkeys

that awkward moment when you see on the line up that Jessie J has her name written bigger than Miles Kane...

She was meant to play last year but didnt perform due to ankle injury & real shame she is deemed 'bigger' by the masses.

That's a real shame because the line up of this day is awesome !! The Stone Roses, Noel Gallagher, The courteeners (i want to see them), the maccabees !!

Full line up announcement

T in the Park 2012: Full stunning line-up unveiled for Balado

KASABIAN, Snow Patrol and Stone Roses are the headline acts confirmed today for this year's T in the Park festival.

Scotland's Brit Award winner Emeli Sande, Amy MacDonald, Calvin Harris and Twin Atlantic are also among the barnstorming line-up for this year's Balado extravaganza.

Thousands of music fans are expected to flock to Fife for the 18th annual festival in July.
The headliners join an already stellar group of top top acts including The Happy Mondays, the Stone Roses, David Guetta, Jesse J, Tinie Tempah, Florence and the Machine, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, the Vaccines, Elbow, The Wanted, Chase and Status, James Morrison, the Maccabees, The Enemy, Two Door Cinema Club, The Horrors, Maverick Sabre, Frank Turner and Miles Kane.

The announcement comes less than a week before the event's final batch of tickets are sold, at 9am next Wednesday.
With a capacity of 85,000 people a day, T in the Park is said to be more populated than any city centre in Scotland.

Geoff Ellis, festival director, said: "It's one of the strongest launches we've had and it's a very diverse line-up. It's important to have something for everyone because we're a very small country, and to sell 85,000 tickets has us on a par with the biggest festivals worldwide.
"If we were too one-dimensional we wouldn't be selling 85,000 tickets but if you're not a fan of pop you don't need to go and see any pop acts. If you're not a fan of dance music you can go and see guitar bands. I think because we have so many stages it does give us the ability to have lots of different bands playing over the weekend."

Mr Ellis said T in the Park offers good value for money. He said: "We've only gone up £4 on the weekend tickets on the previous year and our costs have gone up a lot more than the equivalent to that unfortunately. We're very conscious that money is always tight, whether there's a recession on or not, so we've always been conscious of ticket prices.
"It works out at around 89p per band which is kind of the equivalent cost of downloading one track from iTunes. So effectively you could say the festival is like an iPod playlist for live music.
"I think festivals generally are good value for money but I think T in the Park, because it has more bands playing than the majority of festivals, becomes even better value for money."
The "unique spirit" of the T in the Park audience sets it aside from any other festival in the UK, he insisted.

"The passion and the excitement of the audience is not something that's seen elsewhere, and I mean that worldwide. I've been to festivals in loads of different countries and they don't have the energy and the passion that the T in the Park audience has every year."

George Kyle, head of sponsorship at Tennent's Lager, said: "It has been an incredible event since day one. It's grown to the dreams that we had 20 years ago. It's a right of passage for tens of thousands of people in Scotland and it's something that puts Scotland on a world stage. It shows the best of us and people love it."
