and live on Freeview channel 276
Five-foot letters spelling out ‘FIT BUT U KNOW IT,’ – which workers said will be illuminated once lights are fitted – have appeared on the common… suggesting that The Streets will be on this year’s bill.
The words are lyrics from the band’s single ‘Fit But You Know It,’ released in April 2004 and reaching number four in the UK Singles Charts.

Other acts appearing at Victorious Festival this year include Ian Brown from the Stone Roses, The Kooks, Terrorvision.
The former Stone Roses frontman Brown is set to headline the Friday night of the festival, playing classic hits from his 30-year career alongside new tracks following his seventh solo album Ripples, released this year.
Speaking then, festival director Andy Marsh said: ‘We’re positive 2020 will be our best line-up to date and we can’t wait to announce the rest of the bill.’
