England’s famous Stonehenge monument has been around for thousands of years, mystifying historians, and serving as a pretty nifty location for your travel snaps. However, the Neolithic sculpture has yet to play host to a live gig… until now.

Ever since Stonehenge was first created some 5,000 years ago, archeologists and historians have done their best to work out just what it was. While the general consensus seems to be that it was used as a burial site at some point, historians are about 100% confident that the location was never used as a live music venue.

However, that’s all about to change, with English producer and DJ Paul Oakenfold set to perform the first live gig at the location, as Mixmag notes.

While the DJ has performed at strange places in the past, including the Great Wall Of China, and – for some inexplicable reason – the Mount Everest base camp, this looks set to be just another feather in his cap.

“I am so lucky to be able to share my music from such an iconic site,” Paul Oakenfold explained of the gig. “The energy there will be like nowhere else on earth, and this will be reflected in my music and performance.”

“Despite having performed at incredible events and locations all across the globe, sunset at Stonehenge will be the most magical.”

While the show’s date has not yet been announced, only 50 people will be able to attend the gig, with all proceeds going towards English Heritage, who work on preserving a number of historical locations.

Of course, this isn’t the first time that Stonehenge has been used in the world of music, with fictional rockers Spın̈al Tap infamously adding in a poorly-designed replica of the monument for their live show in the mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap.

Thankfully, it looks as though Paul Oakenfold won’t have to worry about whether the stones at Stonehenge will be measured in feet or inches when he takes to the stage sometime in the future.
