Hard Rock Calling

The Killers, Kaiser Chiefs, James (Jun 24), Bon Jovi, Ray Davies, Everline, Ryan Bingham, Black Cards, Vintage Trouble (Jun 25), Rod Stewart, Stevie Nicks, Adam And The Ants, Rumer, The LIghthouse Family, Barenaked Ladies (jun 26) Every year, the leafy and tranquil surrounds of Hyde Park ring out to the sounds of kick drums, amped-up guitars and thumping bass and the cry goes up, 'Let there be rock!' This year, the old loveable cockney Scotsman Rod Stewart rounds off the weekend with his classic 'Maggie May' and 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?' alongside former Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks. Plus, the improbably well-preserved (he's nudging 50) Jon Bon Jovi brings his Noo Joizee, stadium-filling crew back for more soft metal rabble-rousing on day two (Jun 25). Friday's headliner will be Brandon Flowers and his Las Vegas cohorts TK.
