February 1, 2010
Leftfield To Play First UK Show In A Decade At RockNess 2010Leftfield have announced their first live date in almost a decade at RockNess Festival in Scotland.

Also joining the line-up at the June 11th to the 13th festival are Boys Noize and Chase & Status.

Festival Director Jim King said: "We're been trying to get Leftfield to do some shows for years and now its actually going to happen. Ask any electronic bands who was an inspiration for them and Leftfield will always be listed.

“I was fortunate to see them live over 10 years ago and if you think the Prodigy are loud then you won't know what hit you when Leftfield kick in.”

Already confirmed for the festival are The Strokes, Friendly Fires, Soulwax, 2 Many DJs, Annie Mac, Rob da Bank and many more.
