The White Stripes are confirmed for Witnness '03. A hotpress.com exclusive

hotpress.com have just learned that The White Stripes have been added to the Sunday night bill of Witnness 2003.

The neo-blues mavericks will bring four albums' worth of great tunes - not least off of fourth LP Elephant, their recent international number one smash - to Punchestown Racecourse, where they will be second on the bill on the main stage, just before Sunday night headliner David Gray.

So that means the White Stripes will be joining the following bands at Witnness 2003 (hang onto yer hats):
