Scissor Sisters, Kasabian and Razorlight perform in Preston for the beeb

Last night three of the hottest bands in the world played at Moor Park in Preston. And you cannot say that very often. The Scissor Sisters, Kasabian and Razorlight were headlining the BBC's Big Weekend event.

The Scissor Sisters powered through Comfortably Numb, Laura, Kiss You Off, Filthy Gorgeous, Paul McCartney and finished with I Don't Feel Like Dancing. Ana Matronic, the band's charismatic vocalist, dedicated Filthy Gorgeous to Radio 1 DJ Jo Whiley. She also made Whiley a honoury member of the band, since she was the first British DJ to play a Scissor Sisters record.

Indie stars Kasabian put in a very strong afternoon slot. The retro guitar boys got through Shoot The Runner, Me Plus One, Empire, Processed Beats, The Doberman, Clubfoot and LSF.

Razorlight, always a strong live act, appeared on the main stage last night. Their set included In the Morning, Somewhere Else, Vice, Golden Touch, America and Before I Fall To Pieces. Posh precocious popster Johnny Borrell fetched up in his all white combo - and sang his heart out.

And there's more. Tonight will all be about the Kaiser Chiefs, Bloc Party and Dundee's finest, The View.
