If you’re U2, you get a do-over. Though the Irish band had to cancel their headlining performance at last year’s Glastonbury festival in Somerset, England due to Bono’s back injury, they’ll get to make up for it when they headline the first night of this year’s event on June 24. Coldplay and Beyonce will headline the next two days, respectively.
Glastonbury is totally sold out unless the goat trading phenomenon has jumped overseas, but the performance will be in the middle of their 360 tour, which will make stops in Winnipeg, Edmonton, Montreal, Toronto and Moncton. [Rolling Stone]
