V Festival 2009 announces The Killers and Snow Patrol

Yabadabadooooooooooooo....................

Heading up the line-up for V Festival 2009 will be the one of the biggest acts going around today, The Killers, who will be releasing their new album 'Day and Age' in only a few days time. Along with possibly the second biggest act going around today, Snow Patrol. It was only yesterday when we mentioned that Snow Patrol would be here shortly (performing tonight in Sydney) and we were right as per usual.

Mixing it up with the big boys are recent Mercury Prize award winners Elbow and UK outfit the Kaiser Chiefs. Doing their bit for the local scene are Modular sensations and Aussie export hopefuls, Tame Impala and the boys from Melbourne, the Temper Trap.
