Amy Winehouse announces only UK headlining festival appearance
By Mirror.co.uk 9/04/2008

Amy Winehouse has been unveiled as the headlining act for the Saturday of this year's Bestival festival on the Isle Of Wight.

It's also been announced that dance legends Underworld will be wrapping up the event headlining on the Sunday night of the bash, which takes place 5-7 September. Also on the bill is Will Young, who will be playing a special acoustic set at the Bestival Bandstand stage, and hip hop founding fathers The Sugarhill Gang who will be playing their only UK festival set there too.

Indie legends My Bloody Valentine are also making their comeback at the event and other acts playing include Hot Chip, funk star George Clinton and hotly-tipped new US act Black Kids. Event organiser and Radio 1 DJ Rob Da Bank said: "I can honestly say his year’s line up is my favourite so far."

Winehouse is also set to play at this year's Glastonbury Festival. Although she won't be headlining, she's thought to be playing more than one set with a possible surprise gig at a secret venue.

The full line-up for Glastonbury, which takes place 27-29 June at Pilton, Somerset, will be announced on 1 May.

I'll be in town but don't know if I will make it to that. Beside my aunt will be with me the first week! (So excited she's gonna come w/ me) so I highly doubt she's gonna want to go to that. Sounds good though. I think I'll spend my 2nd week down at a kebab shop though....hehe.

Lucky you! I've heard that a lot of musicians say it is their favourite. Very laid back and a lot of fun, too.
