lucyginger Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 I did see John Otway, and I had chance to ask if he'd be there this year. Well, I say I had chance, what I mean is I was pissed and rambled some nonsense at him about Glastonbury, he said they usually play on the Friday or Saturday in the Caberet tent and probably will this year. Not his actual words, but something along those lines! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spotted that as you did on Pollstar a while back, looked into it and all I could find was a Brazilian Rolling Stone article that said there's no signed contract but they've spoken to them, so I didn't offer it up as a self confirmation. They do seem like a WH act, you're right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBoz Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 This was retweeted by the verified Skepta twitter account last night. I know it doesn't necessarily confirm him but it could mean that he has accepted a slot to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So like Pyramid, Other, West Holts, John Peel sort of thing. Would've thought he'd be graduating onto those this year anyway so I wouldn't be surprised if that's gospel.

Yep I definitely expect to see him, more than likely in JP, that's my guess anyway But that tweet would definitely suggest the main stage (pyramid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
