Geoff Ellis, Festival Director for DF Concerts, who organise T In The Park, spoke to Virtual Festivals yesterday about The Stone Roses historic TITP show: "It's really exciting, they're probably the biggest band that have ever played T really, you could certainly say."

On Snow Patrol's return to the festival Ellis said: "They started out on the TBreak stage at T In The Park about ten years ago so they've always had a long association with the event.

"With Florence and the Machine playing prior to them I think it will be a great finish to the Friday night."

Finally Ellis revealed his thoughts on the festival closers Kasabian: "They're really on fire, their live show is really good. I think with this album they've moved on a stage as a band. When they last headlined T they had the biggest audience of the weekend.

I was at a football match with Serge in Italy, a Man City game, and we were having breakfast the next day and he was asking me all about T then. It's great to hear someone talking about how strongly they feel about the festival. We were delighted we could get them in for the Sunday night."

Read the full interview with Geoff Ellis exclusively with Virtual Festivals on Monday (Feb 27) next week.
