Scottish indie band The Vaselines, often cited as a favourite of Kurt Cobain and covered three times by Nirvana, will reform for a show at this year's Tigerfest in Scotland on 16 May. The band split in 1989, reforming for a one-off show to support Nirvana a year later. Frontmen Eugene Kelly and Francis Kelly also performed Vaselines songs together on a joint tour to promote their respective solo albums in 2006, but this will be the first official Vaselines performance for nearly 20 years. The band have also revealed that members of Belle & Sebastian will also perform with them for the gig.
