Killers for V

The Killers have been announced as one of the headlining acts for this year's V Festival.

The Las Vegas quartet will headline nights at both the Chelmsford and Staffordshire venues in August, and will also play a set at the Princess Diana Memorial gig at Wembley in July.

The news will almost definitely mean the band are out of the running for the Glastonbury headlining slots, which are yet to be announced.

The Killers and Kasabian were rumored to be Glasto headliners. This leaves the field wide open.

I'll take Arctic Monkeys and Scissor Sisters as Headliners #2 and #3 for $5000, Alex.

I'm also betting that second, third and whatever stages will include the following-

"Diamond" Lily Allen
The Kooks
Ian Brown
Franz Ferdinand
Bloc Party
Dirty Pretty Things
Gnarls Barkley
"La" Amy Winehouse
Charlatans


*Potential wild card for headliner? Oasis.
