Self Confirmed

[OBface]

I saw hessle audio on Friday, and I asked Ben ufo if he was at glasto this year and he said yes. But I can't remember if he meant the full hessle audio show or just him. Memory is hazy but I'm pretty sure he said yes.

Either way pleasing. Good ask!

Not a confirmation - sorry - but girl from Slow Club asking for people to pray that they get booked:

Just back from watching Slow Club, it was really something. They definitely deserve to be booked for Glastonbury, it was such a fun show, they were putting everything into it, and were openly delighted about playing their songs to people. I think if Emily had been in the room tonight, she'd be throwing Pyramid headline slots at them, it was that special, it was very easy to get swept up in, even on a Sunday night. I'm thinking they'd do very well opening the Other Stage on Saturday or Sunday, The Staves did a grand job of that slot in 2013, and Slow Club did an equally great job opening the main stage of Latitude festival on the Friday of last year.

Nicky Blackmarket is a dnb legend. Was on last year on the thursday night in the club / tent with the Underground train stuck on the side. I'm not into Drum and Bass. My mate is, we went to watch him.

I enjoyed it as much as I could enjoy 2 hours of Drum and Bass.

Nicky BM played hardcore last year not dnb

I can't tell if this is a joke or not

I smiled at it

[djcolsen]

No joke, defiantly played a hardcore set

Had someone told him he wasn't allowed to but he did anyway?

[djcolsen]

Was a 89-92 night in the london underground I believe, hardcore proceeded jungle which proceeded dnb so was hardcore and very very early jungle all night that night, dnb was the Friday

yes yes!! love ben ufo so cheers for getting that info.

i see him playing the WOW stage and then perhaps genosys or somewhere else down in the SE corner.

i suppose hessle trio could work in the dance village too headlining the WOW.

or maybe a daytime appearance at one of those boat parties outside.

i've seen him in small venues in leeds both on his own and with hessle and i much prefered his own set without the other two I must say. He played Metro area <3

Blast, beat me to it....

The history of dance set I saw him play (with Slipmatt) referenced hardcore so I can well believe it.

That doesn't nail him on as confirmed. Something stating him as playing Glastonbury does that.

Well it sounded like Drum and Bass to me..as I say though, I went with a mate who was into it. It's not my genre. I enjoyed it, but I was pretty fucked

For a minute there, I thought that was about Seasick Steve's new track!

That's fair as I said it's all from the same family tree as it were so can see how someone wouldn't realise the difference .. It was quality in there too be fair though....the whole of block9 was packed that Thursday with the Frankie knuckles night in the nyc downlow aswell.... I spend to much time and money in the London Underground last year

Spoke to one of Jungle when I was very merry and from what I remember when I asked him re: Glasto, he giggled and said "I can't say" or whatever, so they're probably there.

(Not that it was ever unlikely.)

Just seen Lukas Drinkwater has Glastonbury in his gig schedule.. Badass. Hoping for both his solo set and 3 Daft Monkeys..

Gregory Porter on BBC Breakfast when asked...

"Yeah, there's some word on the street that I'll be there but you'll have to tune in when they announce who'll be there."

Admittedly not a confirmation but pretty damn close.
