Speaking of the stabbing which occurred in the T in the Park campsite in the early hours of this morning, Senior Investigating officer, Detective Chief Inspector Bruce Kerr urged festival-goers to be on the look-out.

He said: "This was a horrific assault on a 22-year-old man who sustained multiple stab wounds.

"Whoever is responsible will undoubtedly have blood on their clothing"

"I would urge anyone who finds a knife or blood-stained clothing to notify a police officer or steward immediately."

Colin Rodger, T in the Park Events Manager said: "We are upset that this incident took place last night, but we are extremely pleased to hear that the assaulted man is in a stable condition.

"We are currently assisting police with their ongoing investigation and focusing on ensuring that the rest of the audience stay safe and enjoy the remainder of T in the Park experience."

In light of the tragic news of a 32-year-old man being found dead in his tent, Festival Director, Geoff Ellis spoke of his sadness on hearing of the news.

He said: "In T in the Park's fifteen year history, this is the first time we have had a death onsite and we are shocked and saddened to hear the news. Our thoughts are with the family at his time."

Just back from seeing the excellent Amy Winehouse, she definately got the crowds forgetting about their manky clothes and hangovers. Wearing a tight red skirt and the infamous beehive, Amy looked a million quid as she swaggered from one side of the stage to the other, ......and it seems apparent she's kept her fists to herself!

The main arena between the main stage and NME stage is virtually bulging with people, making it quite a task to get from one stage to the other....

well, well.....its time to say cheerio for now!

Carla aka bedhead festival hair.....Rawk! x

Carla here, live and loooooud from T in the Park on day three.

Bumped into the lovely Tim from The Charlatans, had a wee chat about their forthcoming gig... but mostly we talked about hair and partying......two of my favourite things!!

Check out the pic of me and Tim..... best mates eh?!

Had a wee chat with Glasgow-based band, The Down and Outs - they played in the T Break stage on Friday and are hottly-tipped (by me!) for 2008.... Check out the vid of Clark speaking about his fave thing about festivals......girls!

First of all....it's my mum's birthday today, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!!!

on a sadder note, the mood of T in the Park was darkened today as news came out of a stabbing in one of the campsites.... more news of this to come from Katy.

Yesterday was a brilliant day crammed with great acts. As i mentioned before, The Stranglers were superb as were Glasvegas....although, this tent was rammed with people, so i only heard them from the outside! The Kooks and The Fratellis got the crowds going as hundreds packed into the stages to see them. Rage Against the Machine brought Saturday to a rapturous close... these guys certainly know how to rock and the crowd were loving it!!

With festivities getting underway soon, Sunday offers Amy Winehouse, Primal Scream and REM.. it's going to be a busy day for the T in the Park digi team!

Keep it bloginthepark.co.uk for all the live news!!

bye for now!!!!

Hello again,

Not long back from seeing The Stranglers at the King Tuts tent. A pyschadelic brilliance of rock-esque songs with a fab 70's vibe. My dad got me into this brilliant group when i was a bairn (as they say here). They didn't disapoint playing all the old favourites including the anthemic "No More Heroes" and "Peaches"./

Weather wise, its pretty overcast....a little bit of rain, but not too bad... nothing seems to be stopping the revellers at T this year!

Next up is some Indie/rock action from Dalmarnock group, Glasvegas. These guys are my big tip-off for 2008....a brilliance of shoegaze/indie rock......fabulous and i can't wait to see them!

Rage Against the Machine, The Pogues and The Kooks to come up next. Again, another band introduced to me by my dad. Seeing Shane McGowan perform "Dirty Old Town".....well, i cany wait!

Over and out for now,

Carla xx

Hi guys! Well, we made it to Balado with no traffic problems which was fab! First act i seen was KT Tunstall....she was really good, playing stuff from her debut album Eye to the Telescope and some hits from her new album Drastic Fantastic. The weather was surprisingly good, with alot of sun-burned faces and shoulders on show.

In between bands, me and Katy have a look round the site, meeting (to name but a few) Elvis, superman,batman and a giant penguin......yes, it's fancy-dress Friday! We have a look at some of the cool stalls..... me and Katy end up buying dresses..... we must be the only people who go clothes shopping at T in the Park!

Next up was Feeder, who were immense as usual. Playing Insomnia from their early album Yesterday Went Too Soon and recent hits such as Buck Rodgers and Just the Way I'm Feeling.

After Feeder, its straight round to the mainstage to catch The Verve. Being a fan of their early stuff, i was hoping for a nostalgia trip... Playing History, Bitter Sweet Symphony and Sonnet, Ashcroft was in top form, and the band were fab,,,,,although i can't say i'm much of a fan of their new stuff.

Walked by the King Tuts tent, only to be dazzled with mad strobe light action, The Futureheads seemed to be bringing the house/tent down.

Its the morning of Day two..... must get ready, 'cos there's hunners to see today - Glasvegas, The Pogues, Rage and many more!

Ciao for now!
