Sad news. They're actually supporting him on the whole tour (first info was just the UK part), except for Amsterdam, which is (I suspect) because of their IoW date, indicating they won't do additional dates in between.
To be fair to him, KSI has more hits than Big Shaq. He has 9 top 10s and currently has a song charting at 6 in the UK. Yes a lot of it is down to internet fame but the numbers are still there.
This is in no way me saying that its what the festival should book or that its whats best for the festivals integrity, because we all know its not, but i could see why they would book him.
No they don't hence the petition. Glastonbury could totally make it happen, it would just mean trimming down on the amount of freebies and +1s they give to the bigger acts and to the fawning media they get in to cover the festival.
Am I the only person a little perplexed about Lorna Shore's placement on the 1st poster?
The website had them on the 2nd Stage along with Within Temptation, Sex Pistols, The Darkness and Steel Panther, but they're considerably lower than all of those, being placed between two presumed 4th Stage headliners.
If we cast our minds back to the 1st announcement for 2024, you had Thy Art Is Murder and a logo band who ended up being 4th down on the 2nd Stage.
If we follow this logic, maybe we have more logo sized bands left than most people assume?
