[leave a comment] - 2008 Mighty Boosh Festival @ The Hop Farm (Sat 5 Jul 2008)
Bit of a weak lineup actually :-( The day before Neil Young, could be a mighty weekend. Check ebay...
[leave a comment]- Neil Young and The Mighty BooshIt's all kicking off at the Hop Farm this year isn't it? Neil Young is there on the 6th, and according to the NME, there's a Mighty Boosh festival the same weekend. No tickets on sale for that yet I don't think, so could all be a lie, keep an eye on ebay maybe for Booshstock (Glastonboosh?), but get Neil Young tickets here... -

It's a bit ropey actually. The 'Boosh themselves headline I think, with The Charlatans, Gary Numan, White Denim, The Kills, Peaches (DJing only), and Polar Bear. I've no idea of the format actually, so i'm not sure what part Noel Fielding, Julian Barrett et all will play. There is a full comedy lineup too featuring Ross Noble, Frankie Boyle, Flig -
