OMD and Bangles to headline Rewind

Rewind the 80's Festival has been announced in England.

For the fourth year in a row, the festival will be at the Temple Island Meadows, Henley-on-Themes, England. The dates for this year's show are August 17 to August 19.

As with the sister show in Perth, Scotland (July 20 to 22), the organizers are occasionally playing a little loose with what they consider artists of the 80's (e.g., Kool & the Gang) but there is no doubt that the lineups are stellar.
