Glastonbury festival line-up revealed
James Blunt, Crowded House, Panic! At the Disco and The Gossip are among the
acts performing at the three-day event.
British 80s pop star Shakin’ Stevens - who modeled himself on the late
Elvis Presley - has been revealed as a surprise opener on the second day of
the event.
The main stage headliners were confirmed months ago as Kings of Leon, Jay-Z
and The Verve.
The line-up for the festival, which takes place over the weekend of June
27-29 at Worthy Farm in Somerset, has already come under fire because of
organiser Michael Eavis’ decision to book rapper Jay-Z for the traditionally
rock festival.
Jay-Z threatened to pull out because of the criticism, while Oasis star Noel
Gallagher said he had “no place” at Glastonbury.
Tickets are still available for the event, in stark contrast to previous
years when it has sold out within hours of tickets going on sale.
