Cautionary Wife Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 WORCESTER NEWS 20 Apr 2007 MUSIC legends Issac Hayes and Richie Havens have been confirmed for the Big Chill Festival. Joining them at the three-day event, held at Eastnor Castle in August, will be breakthrough singer-songwriter Mika. American folk singer Havens was the opening act at Woodstock Festival and he's noted for his guitar skills and foot tapping. Hayes is regarded as a soul legend. He penned the award-winning Shaft theme-tune and, in 2005, made it into the Songwriters' Hall of Fame. By the late 1990s, he was best known as the voice of Chef on South Park. Also performing is flavour of the moment Mika, whose debut album Life In Cartoon Motion reached number one as well as the catchy single Grace Kelly. The Big Chill takes place in Eastnor Deer Park from Friday, August 3 to Sunday, August 5. Full line up and tickets are available from http://www.bigchill.net. Alternatively call the ticketline on 08700 667733. --- CW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Ah, the Splendour in the Park in Brisbane (AUS) is on the same dates... So there might be a conflict then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoppappop Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Ah, the Splendour in the Park in Brisbane (AUS) is on the same dates... So there might be a conflict then... Yeah... But Splendour in the Park was a supposition, they said he MIGHT be there, since he was in Japan, and both festivals often shared the same artists... I guess they were wrong for this one !

Blue Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Here is the article about it: http://www.samesame.com.au/news/local/584/Mika_Making_His_Way_Here I also thought Big Chill was already confirmed. Oh and I noticed it is Splendour in the Grass, I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tia Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Mika has been confirmed to play in Eastnor park on the saturday the 4th... I know this because i spoke to the ppl. who run it only a few weeks ago! Hope this helps:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoppappop Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Well... Splendour in the Grass is saturday 4th and sunday 5th... I don't think he would fly from Big Chill to Splendour in the Grass !! In the other way, it MIGHT MAYBE have been IMAGINED... But not from England to Oz... Simply impossible due to time difference... So Tia, you just confirmed that he won't be in Splendour in the Grass this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
