Mogwai on BBC TV tonight

Stuart on Twitter:

We'll be making a rare appearance on BBC TV tonight from T in the Park.

Mogwai play last on the King Tuts stage.

BBC3 has coverage from 8pm - 10pm and from 10.45pm - 12.15am

Update: 'Hunted', 'I know you are', 'You don't know jesus', 'Jim Morrison' and 'Batcat' were TV-broadcast at around 2am on 13th July 2009 as part of BBC3's 'red button' coverage of the festival. Anyone record this? Sadly the broadcast does not appear to be archived on the BBC iplayer.

The One That Didn't Get Away?

Gilles Peterson played a new Arthur Baker white label on his 'Worldwide' show yesterday morning (9th July) - [tracklist]

Credited as Arthur Baker & Pharaoh Sanders- ‘Spirituality’ (White Label), the track apparently includes contributions from 'members of Mogwai' and is most likely drawn from the sessions for Baker's (shelved?) album 'The One That Got Away' in 1999.

Listen again (until 15th July):
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/gillespeterson/
'Spirituality' starts around 43:20

Any further details gratefully received. A copy of the record would be even better!

Thanks to Jack GG for posting this on the forum.

Rock Band

The campaign to get Mogwai into Rock Band continues - from Stuart:

Can everyone go to this link and say they want a Mogwai song in Rockband please?

Festival Beauregard

Did any Brightlight readers attend Festival Beauregard in Hérouville Saint Clair, France last Friday (3rd July)? Mogwai's setlist, reviews, photos are proving very elusive. By contrast, Youtube has video of every song from Pete Doherty's set from the same night.

Mogwai at Rock Werchter - watch again?

For those reading this with a Belgian IP address, Mogwai's set at Rock Werchter yesterday was streamed live and appears to be archived.

http://rockwerchter.be/

Select 'Live & On Demand'
Select 'Saturday 4th'
Select the 'Pyramid Marquee' tab
and scroll through to 17:05

If anyone can provide a setlist (or even better, capture the stream), please get in touch.
