EXCLUSIVE!! Damien Rice to play twice

22 June 2004

Following in the footsteps of Sistor Sledge and Scissor Sisters, the sultry Irish songwriter is set to play a second set at Glastonbury

Having already been set-listed to play Glastonbury's Other Stage at 8.50pm on Saturday night, Damien Rice has been confirmed to play a second set on the Left Field Stage earlier in the day.

Left Field organisers say his set will be a stripped-down acoustic performance, offering something a bit different from his usual style.

Damien has agreed to play the politically-edged stage because of his support for struggling workers in Columbia.

Rumours are also abound that the Libertines will be playing an audacious (but typically Libertines!) surprise gig on the Left Field stage on Friday night.
