zxDaveM Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 in case anyone missed it, Ballet Black performed a short (2mins or so) piece in the politically charged headline Stormzy set at Glastonbury. Not my sort of music to be honest, but the whole set was brilliantly staged, and he is an admirable master of what he does. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odyssey Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Thank you for posting this. I heard that they had made an appearance as part of Stormzy’s set and that it was much appreciated by the crowd. I can remember ENB performed at Glastonbury a few years ago but I think it was as an independent ‘act’ and not on the Pyramid stage, but perhaps someone else can put me right.

Ballet Black appeared for those 2mins as part of the headline act, so it was HUGE! And fabulous! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
