Glastonbury has always tried to attract diverse music acts to draw in diverse music fans. All these people are moaning about Jay-Z headlining, but they are not offering any alternatives. Why not? Because they know that Radiohead, Muse, The Cilli’s etc. who are renowned as been some of the best live bands in the world have played the festivals, they’ve headlined the main stages. While Jay-Z isn’t new to music he’s someone new to festivals who is capable putting on an amazing show. I’ll admit I was hoping for Kanye West when it was announced it would be black solo artist, but I am not disappointed with it being Jay-Z. Antartic Funky – Who would you have suggested to headline? If you want someone to Mosh to go to Download, if you want music to Rave to then go to Creamfields. I cant see what everyones problem is, most other bands have been seen by most, how many people can say they have seen Jay-Z in the UK?? It’s a great opportunity to see an entertainer that very rarely does this kind of show. Give him a chance, and if your too narrow minded, have fun at Reading, watching the usual predictable line up………….
