HOPES AND THANK YOUS

The band head down to Somerset for a post-Glastonbury party…

Keane were the surprise headliners at this year’s PILTON PARTY – the small festival put together for local residents by MICHAEL EAVIS.


The post-Glastonbury bash is held by Michael Eavis as a thank you to the village for their support during the festival.


Keane were supported at the show by Elbow. Both appeared at this year’s festival in June.


Speaking today, Emily Eavis told NME.COM that the show, which took place on the Pilton VIlliage Playing Fields (September 3) is a "thank-you to local residents after the inevitable disruption having such a large event on their doorstep".
