Oh yeah, thought he was but was looking for his name, didn't spot he was there as 'DJ Felix Dickinson'.

the problem is with just about every act is, they don't know their own performing name and they don't make sure a promoter uses their right name - so what we tend to have in our bands database is the first version of their name that we encountered, which may or may not be the right name for that act.

Bestival last year booked a DJ called Eden, but when booking him they asked him his name and he said "it's just Eden" which they took as Just Eden and has become his performing name since

Muse had last year's poster changed before announcement day because they were down as 'Oh No Not Fucking Muse (Again)'.

Ah, they said "like Glastonbury", not actual Glastonbury. Imagine the uproar if that's all they meant

I most certainly did; ensuring that everyone got the news! Got ever so excited when I found out. They're meant to be one of the best live acts out there

[Mezhyp1]

This brilliant, Joe Goddard's new solo stuff is superb sounding and RTJ are a must see

I was fairly close to the front and thought they were ace at the time, my mates further back said the sound was dodgy where they were and didn't enjoy it as much.

I've watched plenty of live videos and while El doesn't always cut it, Mike seems to be able to nails his verses every time... tiptoes round the tracks like a ballerina in fact....
