The Mighty Boosh Announce First Music Acts For Festival Line-Up!

Indie behemoths, The Charlatans, Gary Numan, the ‘Godfather of electronic music’, hotly tipped dirt rock trio White Denim and abstract jazz-sters, Polar Bear have been confirmed as the first four music acts to perform at the much-anticipated Mighty Boosh Festival, which takes place at the Hop Farm in Kent on the 5th July.

Of course, no Mighty Boosh festival would be complete without a performance from the boys themselves. They will headline the day’s events with a comedy extravaganza on the main stage.

Entertaining 30,000 fans, the Perrier, NME and RTS Award winners Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding AKA Howard Moon and Vince Noir, will delight fans with their magical and comical wizardry and take us on a hilarious journey from their Nabootique homeland to the very ends of the comedy universe!

The Boosh is also revered in the musical world and rub shoulders with the great and the greater of the music scene. The festival will therefore perfectly fuse the finest musical acts with their own spectacle, with the boys inviting some of their own special favourites to take to the stage with them!

Says Noel Fielding “We’ve never played a music festival before and a comic has never headlined at a festival before so we are seizing the opportunity and doing both!”

Further acts to be announced shortly.

I missed the Mighty Boosh last time they toured, but it looks like there are still tickets left in Liverpool...

Hmmm £28 seems little bit steep tho, do people reckon they are worth that much?
