Let's push things northward

Not content with playing Witnness next weekend, The Streets journey to Belfast on September 6 for the first day of the Vital '03 festival.

Also on the bill are Zero 7, Roger Sanchez, Death In Vegas and Roots Manuva.

Nothing is confirmed but there are whispers of Ash headlining the second day of the open-air beano.

100% definitely happening in Ash Land, however, is an August 7 appearance at London's Somerset House. One of a series of gigs at the stately home – how very Led Zep! – support is provided by Electric Soft Parade and Fi-Lo Radio.
