Wed 21st Apr 04



Glastonbury Festival Glastonbury Festival 2004

According to the official Orbital website, Orbital are to play their last ever English show when they close the Other Stage at Glastonbury on Sunday 27th June. Orbital - Paul and Phil Hartnoll have announced that their forthcoming LP - the “Blue Album” - will be their last.

The website goes on:
With the album complete the band are turning their attention to their final show at Glastonbury. An appropriate venue for a farewell as it was here, exactly ten years before that Orbital delivered a live show that Q magazine listed as one of the fifty greatest live show of all time. “It’s nice to know that we’re finishing, it’s not many bands that do that. They tend to just fade away. And it’s nice to have our last gig at Glastonbury. It’s gonna be a party set, a best of Orbital. We’re not gonna sit there and try and promote the new album. I think if we’re gonna do a last gig we should do distilled set of all the best stuff we’ve done. And that’s what we’re gonna do, play all the stuff that’s stuck around for all this time because they are the favourite ones.

They join the mass of bands that have already said they're playing Glastonbury. For the biggest list of rumours, click here.
