Fans will have to ‘buy blind’, with the 2009 line-up a closely guarded secret. Considering that Steve Earle, Amy Winehouse, Damien Rice, Super Furry Animals , Ryan Adams and Ray Davies have all played in the past, there’s unlikely to be any problems with the quality control.

Launching on the national broadcaster in January, the show will be co-presented by John Kelly and Annie Mac.

Tickets, which are limited to 40 per night, go on sale at 9am on Monday, November 17 from www.tickets.ie.
