Radiohead name five open-air shows for Britain and Ireland

Radiohead have named the venues and days of five open-air headline shows in Ireland and Britain for June 2008. The cities have been on the band's site since 29 November without venues or days. Tickets cost £42.50, according to Drowned In Sound, and go on general sale at 9am on Friday 7 December.

The run leaves Saturday 28 June free, between Glasgow Green on the 27th and Manchester on the 29th. That is the Saturday of Glastonbury, which runs from 27 to 29 June. Uncut and Drowned In Sound took the gap as fuel for talk that the band will headline the festival, as they did in 1997 and 2003. No booking has been announced.

The two London nights take Radiohead back to Victoria Park, where they pitched their tent in September 2000 for three nights, days before Kid A came out.
