A big thank you to everyone who came down and rocked out with us at Get Loaded in the Park 2008. We’re delighted to report that the entire 20,000 ticket allocation was sold out in advance, with the day itself becoming a runaway summer success story. There was of course the stand out live performance from our exclusive headline band, Iggy & The Stooges – who came, saw and conquered the Common with rock n’ roll ease. The Get Loaded faithful were also treated to more incredible Main Stage performances from The Hives, Supergrass, Gogol Bordello and newbies Noah and the Whale, whilst on the XFM Stage Kate Nash, Reverend & The Makers, The Maccabees and Midnight Juggernauts blew the roof off! The Together & Timeout gang kept it electronic with stellar shows from Soulwax, Boys Noize, Mylo and that powerhouse show from Gossip to finish things off. There was still time for Finger Lickin Records to bring us Yoda, Plump DJs, The Nextmen and Krafty Kuts, plus set a new (unofficial) world record for the total number of people doing the ‘Running Man’ dance at any one time (2000 people!) courtesy of Utah Saints and Beardyman! Heck... the sun even shone... all day!! All in all, it’s fair to say this summer’s festie was our finest hour yet, and we’re now busy planning ahead for Get Loaded in the Park 2009. Watch this space...
