You good, good people: Embrace save V
afuture1 by Andrew Future August 20th, 2004
With Jet having pulled out of V this weekend, Embrace have stepped up at the last minute to support Kings Of Leon on the second stage.

V Festivals organisers said: "Having helped define brit-pop in the early nineties, Embrace¹s comeback at the V Festival this weekend is shaping up to be the greatest since Lazarus."

They must have them confused with Blur, because Embrace's debut LP, The Good Will Out, was released in July 1998.

DiScuss: Who's more deserving of a hot poker in the bum - the McNamaras or the Cesters?
