IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A CRACKING SUPREME COURT BUILDING

We're a little sad they aren't going to put the supreme court into Somerset House now; it had the perfect look for a serious court and we loved the idea they could continue to hold the regular music events there. Imagine the joy of Charles Clark storming out of a court after a judge has said "Yes, but shouldn't there be some sort of evidence?" and having to pick his way through a bunch of kids there to see the Mars Volta.

Anyway, it isn't going to happen, but (apparently) these are this year's Somerset House bands for July. As far as we know, only Bloc Party are totally confirmed:

05th - Beth Orton
06th - Doves
07th - Queens Of The Stone Age
08th - Super Furry Animals
09th - The Mars Volta
10th - Sigur Ros
11th - Bright Eyes
12th - Bloc Party
