Can your name this band / artist?

[bazh]

Right guys, this summers lads holiday is Newquay which will also be including the Boardmasters weekend. So far the only band that has been named for the weekend is The Streets, but the next headliner will be released this week, so using these clue do you know who it is??



>> Mystery Headliner to be revealed this week! . .

The second Watergate Bay headliner is going to be revealed this week and in the build up to this announcement RBM HQ thought we would tease you with some interesting facts about the latest addition to Relentless Boardmasters 2009.

Over 18 million albums sold world wide, 3 multi platinum albums and 15 UK chart topping singles is just the beginning of this legendary act's portfolio.

This will be their first ever gig in Cornwall and what better way to be acquainted than playing to thousands of people on the beautifully scenic Watergate Bay.

Watch this space for the incoming announcement on the 1st of April 2009. No April fool!

Not at 18 million sales.

Westlife have sold far more than that

Westlife, Madge and Cliff around the 15 number ones mark according to this list - think Westlife may have had another recently, not that I pay much attention to teh charts

I daresay they used the term 'chart-topping' because not all were #1s.

The Prodigy - sales figures about right, album released this year and the sort of artist you might find headlining this type of event?

Depends, as V8Mate pointed out, whether they really mean 'chart-topping' or just big hits.
They have had a raft of top-ten singles and a few just outside it

[Nolar Dog]

It is the PSB.
