Franz Ferdinand are to close this year's T on the Fringe event with two huge outdoor shows.

The band will end the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with two one-off shows in Princes Street Gardens on the 30th and 31st August.

Arcade Fire will be supporting Franz Ferdinand on the 31st August with a guest for the day prior yet to be announced.

As I'm sure you all know, the band are in the studio in New Yoik City recording their second LP. It's slated for a late summer/early autumn release. On that note, we should probably tell you that Franz Ferdinand have invited their fans to contribute to their forthcoming DVD.

The band would like fans to send:

* Jpegs & Mpegs of themselves at Franz Ferdinand gigs * MP3 & Mpeg messages to the band

Please send contributions to dvd@franzferdinand.co.uk

Entries will be judged by the band & the best featured on the 1st Franz Ferdinand DVD

The deadline for contributions is 20th June. The band aren't going to pay you for the images though, so professional photographers lay off!

They were so much of last year that they have become 'so last year' if you get my rather crass drift

Have you thrown out all of last year's wardrobe too? And changed your mates?

I mean, did you like them or didn't you?

they're all right. the album sold a shitload because their label brought it out at exactly the right time, but 'take me out' is good no matter how many times you've heard it. the rest of it went a bit poncey art-school for me. michael and matinee were both bags of shit.

arcade fire are good though. specially 'wake up'.
