Glastonbury organiser defends Jay-Z decision

Glastonbury organiser defends Jay-Z decision



Organisers of the Glastonbury festival today defended the decision to book hip-hop star Jay-Z to headline the fete.
Haven guitar player Yule Gallagher had criticised the determination and blamed the festival's failure to sell entirely its tickets on the determination to raise Jay-Z.
However, written material in today's Freelancer, co-organiser Emily Eavis said the festival was "delighted" to have secured the services of the hip-hop legend.
Eavis said: "In truth, we felt honoured to take him on plug-in, and believe that he is absolutely the aright act as for our fete...
"First, we were blown away by marketing one C,000 tickets on the number 1 sidereal day of sale, especially precondition that it was a snowy Sunday in Apr. Second, Jay-Z is far from the first rap creative person to perform at Glastonbury, as one power sham from just about oddly hysterical bid reports."
Eavis added that the festival had booked a number of rap music artists in the past. She said: "In that respect is no reason why we should non own the greatest living hip-hop creative person on at Glastonbury; in fact, he is exactly the variety of act we should hold playing."
40-year-old Oasis principal Gallagher had previously said it was "wrong" to have a hip-hop headliner at Glastonbury.
He told the BBC: "If it ain't broke, don't fixate it. If you start to break it then hoi polloi aren't sledding to go. I'm sorry, but Jay-Z? No luck. Glastonbury has a custom of guitar music and even when they throw the odd curve ball in on a William Ashley Sunday night you go 'Kylie Minogue?' I don't know about it. Merely I'm non having rap music at Glastonbury. It's damage."
Oasis headlined the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury in 1995 and 2004, with the case merchandising come out on both occasions.
