Is Prince playing Glasto 2014? No, Prince isn’t.
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 6 March 2014
Put your purple silk party pyjamas in the bin, festival fans, and dig out your shitty Kasabian t-shirt, because, despite all your wishful thinking, Prince will not be gracing Glastonbury in 2014. At least, not as a ‘performing artist’. You can now start booing.
All the same, I repeat: Prince isn’t playing this year’s Glastonbury, or so Emily Eavis made explicit yesterday, when she told BBC 6 Music: “He’s someone that will be amazing [to have play] one day. He’s somebody that we haven’t had, and we would love to have him at Glastonbury. But no, no we haven’t [booked him for this year]”.
So, that’s quite final. Carry on booing. And whilst, no, it’s not final that Kasabian are even playing the festival, it’s fair to say that they have faith in their not only playing it, but also co-headlining with the officially confirmed Arcade Fire.
