T4 on the Beach will be back in Weston-Super-Mare on 22 Jul for its annual one day pop fest. It's the fifth year for the event, which is, of course, broadcast live on Channel 4. Initial confirmations for the line-up include Akon, Natasha Bedingfield and Just Jack. It's a bit bigger this year, as this time there's to be a second stage, hosted by 4 Music and featuring short sets from up and coming bands, starting with the winner of the of the 4 Music unsigned competition. Hosted as usual by Steve Jones, Miquita Oliver and the not-remotely-irritating June Sarpong, tickets priced at £28 go on sale tomorrow at 9am. See http://www.channel4.com/t4onthebeach.
The not-remotely irritating June Sarpong said: "I'll be packing up my favourite summery dresses, biggest shades and looking forward to heading down to Weston. Its always a fun day with an amazing crowd - bring on the summer".
The ever so slightly toothsome Steve Jones adds: "I can't wait to get to Weston-Super-Mare again! The last few years have been loads of fun - as for this year I personally guarantee it will be the best yet - if not you and the family can lynch me! See you there....".
