No, his other slot is on sunday in the dance village so I'd say he'll still do it.

Perfect music for the friday afternoon, but unfortunately clashing with teh Wu Tang!

Any word as to why he's dropped out? I was seeing Wu-Tang anyway, but Gonjasufi is brilliant.

This is actually the one and only slot that I was going to go and see. Pretty gutted but still these things happen.

Or has he just pulled out of the West Holts slot and still playing the dance village? Any info would be helpful.

Gonjasufi was never scheduled to appear at the Dance Village so won't be at the festival at all. Given some reports of his recent shows this may be a very good thing.

Ghostpoet who replaces him is now appearing on West Holts on Friday, flying to Belguim for a gig on Saturday and then back to Glastonbury on Sunday where he'll be on the WOW stage.

Could you elaborate on this?


I really enjoyed his album from last year but was never going to see him over Wu-Tang.

Make of it what you will, I've seen both Ghostpoet and the Wu Tang Clan in the past two or three weeks and much prefered the former to the latter.

Gonjasufi may have some, er, mental health issues. Recently he delivered one show where he basically shouted abuse at the audience for 20 minutes and stormed off stage. He seems to be deteriorating rapidly.

Ghostpoet who has recently been touring with Mark Ronson is a great performer. He is rapidly on the rise and deservedly so.
