OHMYGOSSIP — Megan Thee Stallion is working on new music.
The 28-year-old rap star – whose real name is Megan Jovon Ruth Pete – released her second studio album ‘Traumazine’ in August 2022 but after joking that she managed to get tickets to Beyonce’s upcoming ‘Renaissance World Tour’ by simply calling the superstar directly, teased that she is working on what will be her third record.
Speaking at the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscar Party, she told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “Oh I’m gonna tell you how I got them [tickets]. Oh, baby, you know I called Beyonce directly. You know Beyonce is my aunty. This is my first night out and I am here! Oh, and I am [working] on a new album!”
The ‘Sweetest Pie’ hitmaker has enjoyed huge success over recent years and even though towards the end of 2022 she had to endure a trial which saw Tory Lanez found guilty of shooting her and eventually jailed, she explained around the same time that she doesn’t have time to “slow down” in her career as she insisted that she wants to continue telling stories through art.
She shared: “I can’t slow down right now. I’ll take a break when I’m dead. I’m trying to really build something. When I start sitting, I feel like I’m not doing enough or I’m giving somebody else the opportunity to pass me. I definitely want to be an actress, but I also really want to be a director. I love movies and I’m definitely a film buff. “I like to create. Not only do I like to write music, I like to write stories. I definitely want to see these stories come to life.”

The DJ and production duo – which consists of Dave Whelan and Mike Di Scala – are to headline a weekly 19-date residency at the Pacha Ibiza nightclub from May until October and remarked how the Spanish venue holds “so many incredible” memories for them because it was the first club they went to on the island.

OHMYGOSSIP — Ice Spice thinks it is “crazy” how fast TikTok has helped her develop her music career.
The 23-year-old rapper gained more than seven million followers on the viral video-sharing app after releasing her song ‘Munch (Feelin’ U)’ in 2022 and following the release of her debut album ‘Like…?’ earlier this year, remarked how “fast” things have happened for her as she teams up with fellow social media star PinkPantheress for an “unexpected” collaboration.
She told Dazed magazine: “I’m so excited to be collaborating with her, because I’m really a huge fan, ever since I first heard of her I’ve been a fan. So for her to ask me to hop on ‘Boy’s a Liar,’ I’m really excited. And the video is fire too. It’s unexpected, but we still have a correlation to each other somehow. Even before the record, fans really wanted it. There was already requests for that. We definitely spoke about being new artists and just how crazy it is, having to develop and stuff so fast. But we both was just so happy to be there on set, and happy to be getting this collab done. Like, ‘Boy’s a Liar,’ it’s fire, ‘Boy’s a Liar Pt 2’ is fire. Obsessed.”
Meanwhile, the ‘Gangsta Boo’ hitmaker – whose real name is Isis Naija Gaston – was born in the Bronx, New York City and went on to add that she wants everyone from her native area to be able to “follow their dreams” like she has been able to.
She added: “I see the Bronx still being very authentic, and true to its core, no matter what. I want every Bronx native to become successful and follow their dreams and them come true. I want that for all my Bronx people, for real.
“I have my people in my corner, super supportive, I only keep supportive people around me, motivated people around me.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Lady Gaga wanted people to see the “real” version of herself with her Oscars performance.
The 36-year-old pop icon – who is known for wearing extravagant costumes and makeup – appeared at the annual awards ceremony on Sunday (12.03.23) to give a stripped-back performance of ‘Hold My Hand’ from ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ and according to producer Ricky Kirshner, was so busy shooting ‘Joker: Folie: A Deux’ that she “didn’t have time” to do anything grand before hitting the stage bare-faced.
He told The Hollywood Reporter: “we’ve built up trust in the relationship with Gaga over the years — I did the Super Bowl with her and Glenn has done many awards shows with her, including the “Shallow” performance on the Oscars.
“She really wanted to do something. She honestly was shooting her movie [the ‘Joker’ sequel] — there was no trickery involved. And Thursday, at four-something, we got a text that she wanted to try something, didn’t have time to put together a big performance, but wanted it to be raw and people to see the real Gaga, and, with a voice like that, you don’t need much more than that.”
Ricky added that part of his job is “going with the flow” as he recalled that it was touch-and-go whether the ‘Poker Face’ hitmaker would even be able to perform at all.
He said: “We’re doing the show for the people in the room and the people watching at home. Some people make it and some don’t. Glenn honestly said on Wednesday [during a preshow press conference] that Gaga wouldn’t perform, and then on Thursday and Friday that changed. We just go with the flow and produce the show for the people that are there and the people that we’re working with.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Matt Lucas is writing a musical.
The 49-year-old TV star has appeared on stage and screen for almost three decades and explained that he has written a novel and is already planning to turn it into a stage show as he composes the score himself.
He told Metro newspaper’s Guilty Pleasures column: “I’ve written a novel, and I’m adapting the novel for the stage. I’m also writing the songs. I felt the next logical step from having been in musicals and going to watch virtually every musical that’s on is to try and knuckle down and write one of my own.”
Meanwhile, the former ‘Little Britain’ star has played the comedic role of villainous innkeeper Monsieur Thenarider in the classic musical ‘Les Miserables’ on and off over the years, beginning in the role as part of the show’s 25th anniversary concert at the O2 Arena in 2010 before completing a West End run in the part the following year and went back to the part for a third time for the staged concert version at the Gielgud Theatre in 2020 and he admitted that he still gets “goosebumps” when he remembers singing the Act One finale.
He added: “Standing on that stage singing ‘One Day More’… I get goosebumps. It’s a show that many of the people in the audience will have seen before… if you ever fluff a line, chances are they’ll notice. But [the worst production] I have been in was ‘Me and My Girl’, and the only reason I’m picking it is because I had to tap dance. I am not a natural tap dancer. Mind you, the flip side of it, I got fitter than I’d been for years.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Encanto in Concert’ is to embark on a UK tour.
The concert version of the 2021 animated Disney movie – which tells the story of an extraordinary family who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia and features hit songs such as ‘Dos Oruguitas’ and ‘We Don’t Talk About Bruno’ – was first performed at the Hollywood Bowl towards the end of last year but the production is now set to make its debut in the UK as audiences can enjoy entire feature-length film with a full orchestra performing the score across the summer, marking the first time such a feat has been achieved Walt Disney Animation Studios film in the country.
The tour will begin in Glasgow on 28th July, before calling at Liverpool, London’s Eventim Apollo, Birmingham, Manchester, and Bath and will feature all of the songs from the Academy Award-winning movie in a “live to picture” format.
The score to the film was written by ‘Hamilton’ composer Lin-Manuel Miranda, who previously admitted he had been “blown away” by the success of the soundtrack after it topped the charts around the world when it was released in 2022.
He said: “The fact that every song on the soundtrack is on the charts right now is mind-blowing to me. There were so many times when they were like, ‘You’re going to have to cut some characters. That’s a lot of characters for a Disney movie.’ That happens so much. You cut away anyone who isn’t the main character, and their obstacles and their goals.
“At the outset, we said, ‘We want to tell an intergenerational Latino family story, and as much complexity as we can get into 90 minutes as we can.’ And the dynamics are the story. That is what the story is, is them seeing each other more fully. As a result of that, there’s so many inroads for folks.”

Tour dates:
Friday 28 July Glasgow Armadillo
Saturday 29 July Liverpool Philharmonic
Sunday 30 July London Eventim Apollo
Monday 31 July Birmingham Symphony Hall
Tuesday 1 August Manchester Bridgewater Hall
Wednesday 2 August Bath Forum

Tickets are on sale from Friday 17 March at 10am.

OHMYGOSSIP — Louis Tomlinson is “proud” he wrote songs for One Direction.
The 31-year-old singer has writing credits on a number of his former group’s tracks, including ‘History’, ‘Perfect’, ‘No Control’ and ‘Night Changes’ and he has admitted being able to contribute creatively helped him feel “important”.
Speaking in a preview clip from his upcoming documentary film ‘All of Those Voices’ he said: “When I think about how proud I am of One Direction, I think of us as a collective. When I think about what makes me most proud as me as an individual in that band, is definitely having the most writing credits. That makes me feel important to the band, and that’s all I ever wanted when I was a lad.”
Louis had always felt it would be “cool” if the group – who were put together on ‘The X Factor’ in 2010 – wrote their own songs because it would set them apart from other boy bands.
He said: “It had always been in my mind that it’d be cool if we weren’t just the standard boy band who just got given songs and sang them. Like, maybe we should be writing our own songs.
“Once I got to feel stuff bubbling for us and I could see that we got people’s attention, I realised that we might be able to make a few of our own decisions.”
The ‘Walls’ hitmaker admitted writing for the group was the first time he “felt ownership” of his career.
He added: “All of a sudden, I felt in control again. The first two and a half years, I just felt like I wasn’t in control of myself or certainly had an influence on the band.”

OHMYGOSSIP — George Ezra postponed his show at The O2 on Tuesday night (14.03.23) due to “acute vertigo”.
The ‘Budapest’ hitmaker was forced to axe the concert at the last minute on doctor’s orders.
It was not disclosed how the 29-year-old musician got vertigo, which causes one to feel like they are spinning when they are standing still.
George’s team is working on rescheduling the gig.
A statement on his social media pages read: “Hi everyone, unfortunately George has started feeling incredibly unwell this afternoon. “He’s been diagnosed by a doctor as having acute vertigo and as a result we sincerely regret to announce that tonight’s show at the O2 in London will not be able to go ahead as planned. We wanted to let you know as soon as possible.
“Ticket holders, all tickets remain valid and please bear with us as we reschedule the show – we’re very sorry for everyone who has travelled for tonight.”
George’s gig cancellation comes after he recently hinted at stepping away from the spotlight after his latest tour.
The ‘Green Green Grass’ hitmaker said: “This might be a conversation for another time, but I don’t feel an urge or want to continue operating in the way we do at the minute.
“And that’s not a rebellion, it’s just how I feel. Like, ‘Cool, that was a thing.’
The last [headline tour] date lands around April next year. Then it’s festival season, then it’s my 30th, and you think, ‘Well, what an amazing decade. But don’t kid yourself into thinking that’s all life could be.’”
Meanwhile, George recently shared his mammoth trek from Land’s End to John o’ Groats, which saw him walk 30 miles a day and complete the route in 95 days, in the Amazon Prime Video doc ‘End to End’.

OHMYGOSSIP — Cat Stevens is releasing a new album a week before his Glastonbury legends slot.
The 74-year-old musician – who is also known as Yusuf Islam – is bringing out his seventeenth studio LP ‘King of a Land’ on June 16 via BMG / Dark Horse Records.
The weekend after, Cat will head to the world famous festival in Somerset on June 25 to perform the coveted Sunday tea-time legends slot on the Pyramid Stage – a highly prestigious billing previously occupied by Diana Ross, Kylie Minogue, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie, Paul Simon, Brian Wilson and many more.
‘King of a Land’ is an epic body of work. More than a decade in the making, Cat’s 12 new songs feature words and melodies that paint a vivid picture of a world which embraces the lost lands of truisms and stainless youth, and brings it into touching distance.
His poetical storytelling invites the listener on a journey towards the gates of an alternative universe to that which we presently inhabit – where happy endings can possibly happen.
The LP is preceded by the closing track ‘Take The World Apart’, out now, which is accompanied by an animated lyric video created by Peter H. Reynolds.
Reflecting on the record, Cat said: “Looking at the jagged journey of my music, beginning as I did in the 60’s, I would say this new record is a mosaic. A very clearly defined description of where I’ve been and who I am.
“Sometimes you have to take something apart, to find the peace you’re looking for.”
The album’s artwork was also created by Reynolds, the award-winning Canadian children’s illustrator.
‘King of a Land’ is the continuation of a collaboration between Yusuf and Peter that began with the New York Times best selling ‘Peace Train’ picture book in 2021. As well as the ‘King of a Land’ cover art, Peter has created illustrations for each of the songs portraying the album’s lyrical themes that feature in the record’s accompanying booklet.
Speaking about his work with Cat, Peter said: “Someone pinch me. Illustrating the Peace Train picture book was an honour, but when Yusuf asked me to create the album art and animation for ‘King of a Land’… well, I feel like I’m dreaming. The music and lyrics are truly what the world needs now more than ever.”
Early recording sessions for ‘King of a Land‘ stretch back to 2011 at Berlin’s Hansa Studios – the setting for classic albums such as David Bowie’s ‘Low’, ‘Heroes’ and U2’s ‘Achtung Baby’ – and from there, recording locations moved through the years from ICP Studios in Brussels to La Fabrique in Provence, South of France.
Additional overdubs and a 60-piece orchestra were recorded in Air and Angel studios in London, with some key work originally recorded in Cat’s own garage-based home studio in Dubai he calls “Dubville”.
Overseeing the recording process was Yusuf’s long-term producer and later co-producer, ex-Yardbird Paul Samwell-Smith.
‘King of a Land’ is available for pre-order on green vinyl in a gatefold format with a 36 page booklet featuring illustrations by Peter Reynolds.
The CD also features a booklet illustrated by Peter Reynolds – pre-order here. An exclusive edition of the album, pressed on white vinyl, is available from the official Yusuf / Cat Stevens online store along with album merchandise – visit the official store here.

OHMYGOSSIP — Jason Derulo is planning to release his first album in eight years.
The 33-year-old star hasn’t put out a studio album since 2015’s ‘Everything Is 4’, but after signing a new record deal with Atlantic Records two years ago, he’s eager to share all the new music he’s been working on.
Jason is quoted by The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column as saying on Instagram: “I’m finally with a record label I feel really comfortable with.
“I finally see eye to eye, there’s gonna be more music than ever. I’m actually going to be releasing a song every single month.
“I’ve got some really, really exciting material as well as a really cool project which is an audio experience that has never been accomplished before.”
The ‘Talk Dirty’ hitmaker has been spurred on since becoming a father for the first time to son Jason King – whom he has with Jena Frumes – in May 2021.
He added: “The person that motivates me most is my son Jason King. It’s crazy how life can shift and all the energy and all the goals are now to help his goals come true.”
Jason previously explained how the COVID-19 pandemic made him re-evaluate how he works.
He told new! magazine: “It’s been a lot of fun honestly. I can’t see myself going on the road again as intensely as I used to. Of course, I want to get back out there and tour but I used to do so much so I’ll really keep an eye on my time at home too.”
Although he has been hugely successful, Jason warned that a career in music is not easy.
When asked what advice he would give to someone wanting to break into the industry, he said: “Don’t do it. Nah, you’ve gotta put your heart and soul into it. It’s like anything else, there are a lot of people chasing that top spot, so your work ethic has got to be the difference. You have to want it more than anybody else. You have to live, eat, breathe and sleep your craft and hopefully, if you choose something you love, it’s not hard to do it all the time.”

OHMYGOSSIP — The Who frontman Roger Daltrey says there is “no point” in releasing another album.
The ‘My Generation’ hitmaker, 79, insists fans are more interested in listening to the legendary rock group’s greatest hits, despite their latest LP, 2019’s ‘Who’, reaching number three on the UK Albums Chart and number two on the American Billboard 200.
In an interview with NME, he said: “What’s the point?”
Roger continued: “What’s the point of records? We released an album four years ago, and it did nothing.
“It’s a great album too, but there isn’t the interest out there for new music these days. People want to hear the old music. I don’t know why, but that’s the fact.”
He added: “Record companies, they just don’t do the same job as they used to.”
In 2021, guitarist Pete Townshend admitted he wasn’t sure if there’ll be another album because of the “old-fashioned way that they work”.
The 77-year-old musician told Guitar Player magazine: “As far as a new record, it does take quite a lot of time to put together the 20 or 30 songs that are needed for both Roger [Daltrey] and I and any producer that we might be working with to cherry-pick the ones that fit the times.
“Because you write the songs, and then two years later you’re putting them all out, and you just hope that you’re going to hit the mood of the moment.
“A lot of artists now are writing songs at home, recording them at home and putting them out within weeks.
“But our process is the old-fashioned way, and it does take a lot of time. So I don’t know, but I am optimistic. And I’m certainly full of ideas.”
And Pete admitted he and Roger have slightly different stances on pushing boundaries at this stage of their career.
He explained: “I think Roger doesn’t want to be selling ideas that are either vague or evolving, that are unfinished.
“But I’m still at a place now where I want to be gambling and taking chances as a studio composer and writer.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Former Super Furry Animals members’ new outfit, Das Koolies, have released their debut EP ‘The Condemned’.
The Welsh group – comprising Huw Bunford, Cian Ciarán, Dafydd Ieuan and Guto Pryce – have kicked off a new era with their new brand of electronica.
The collection includes the standout single ‘You Killed My Robot’, which tells “stories of technology lost to human folly. Lamenting and paying tribute to the easily-sacrificed drones that went deep into the destroyed reactors of the doomed Fukushima nuclear plant.”
The four-piece said: “From the bridge we can see our course corrected and deep seas of sound lie before us. Liberated, equipped, prepared and full sail.”
Das Koolies first emerged with the single ‘It’s All About The Dolphins’ in 2020.
A press release notes that the group’s “genesis lies in the nineties, half-a-decade between chapters and subject of rumour ever since.”
Super Furry Animals are the band that gave the world audio of Sir Paul McCartney chomping on celery and carrot.
The rock band teamed up with the Beatles legend on their 2001 track ‘Receptacle For The Respectable’, which was featured on the 20th-anniversary re-issue of their album ‘Rings Around The World’ in 2021.
Gruff and co bumped into the 80-year-old music icon at the NME Awards in 2000, where he accepted the bizarre request to play “carrot and celery” percussion on the song.
And fans can get their ears around the full 60-second crunching cameo by Macca, which is ideal for ASMR lovers, on YouTube.
Keyboard player Cian commented: “He was going to come to the studio and then decided not to for some reason. So, we sent him stereo backing tracks so he could keep time, then he sent the tape back with a message that started with a really dodgy Welsh accent. Then he goes ‘I hope you like it’ – the next thing you know you just hear this chewing sound!”
Stream ‘The Condemned’ on all major streaming platforms.

The track-listing for ‘The Condemned’ is:
1. ‘The Condemned’
2. ‘Dim Byd Mawr’
3. ‘You Killed My Robot’
4. ‘Grab a Slice’

OHMYGOSSIP — The Spice Girls have marked the 25th anniversary of their iconic hit ‘Stop’ by sharing an alternative music video.
Fans have been treated to previously unreleased footage of the girl group – comprising Mel B, Emma Bunton, Geri Horner, Melanie C, and Victoria Beckham – doing the famous dance routine to the 1997 tune.
‘Stop’ was co-written by the girls and its producers during the filming of their 1997 movie ‘Spice World’.
In November, the ‘Say You’ll Be There’ hitmakers released ‘SpiceWorld25’, an expanded edition of their iconic 1997 LP ‘Spice World’ containing live tracks and demos.
Amid the anniversary celebrations, Melanie C admitted the Spice Girls are always “working on” getting Victoria Beckham back on stage.
The group reunited in 2019 for a UK tour without Posh Spice, but they are still hopeful the fashion designer will reunite with them in the future.
Speaking to Extra, Melanie – who is known as Sporty Spice in the girl group – said previously: “In my heart of hearts, I want to get back onstage. So me and Mel B are championing and we’re all talking and trying to make that happen.
“It’s like … ‘No pressure. But the world wants it.'”
Although they don’t have any shows booked yet, they are always talking about getting back out on the road and are determined to get Victoria back behind the microphone.
She added: “We hope – I can’t give a time frame. It is something we want to do. We are trying to push through. At the moment, Victoria is in the wings. She is always involved creatively. We want her to be happy. It is our dream to get her back.”
Despite being eager to play some more shows with her bandmates, Melanie insisted “nothing is arranged yet”.
She said: “I wish I could say there were shows coming. But I can’t, sadly. We do want to do shows, they’re just not arranged yet.
“We’re constantly talking trying to work it out and make it work for everybody. But that yeah, that’s my number one wish.”
Melanie has been dropping regular hints that she would love for the ‘Viva Forever’ hitmakers to play Glastonbury, and she quipped she would go as far to “pick up litter” on site just to return to the world-famous festival after making her debut DJing and performing a duet of ‘Spice Up Your Life’ with Blossoms at Worthy Farm last June.

OHMYGOSSIP — Gene Simmons admits it would be “nice” to do a Las Vegas residency.
The ‘Rock and Roll All Nite’ group are bowing out of touring once their ‘End Of The Road’ tour wraps in New York on December 2.
And KISS were supposed to have a residency at Zappos Theater in Sin City in 2021 and 2022, which was cancelled, but the 73-year-old bassist-and-vocalist admits he’d love to still do a Vegas show.
Speaking to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Gene said: “I actually don’t know because we have been so inundated by people wanting to see us wherever we go. I mean, every guy whoever washed my dog or did my dry cleaning is hitting me up for tickets for his entire family, three generations back. Vegas? I don’t know, it would be nice to do a Vegas residency. But I don’t know any of these things.”
Gene previously insisted KISS will “continue” beyond touring.
He said: “KISS the touring band will stop. But the touring band. KISS will continue in other ways. I have no problems with four deserving 20-year-olds sticking the makeup back on and hiding their identity.
“KISS will continue in ways that even I haven’t thought of.
“But I can conceive of… You know, the ‘Blue Man Group’ and ‘Phantom Of The Opera’ tours around the world with different personnel.
“There could and should be a KISS show, kind of live on stage with effects and everything else, but also semi-autobiographical thing about four knuckleheads off the streets of New York that ends with the last third as a full-blown celebration, a full-on performance. Not with us. Although not a problem stepping in every once in a while.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Sir Elton John is still “so hungry” for new music.
The ‘Rocket Man’ legend is retiring from touring, but his passion for music is still burning as he looks to stay “in touch with what’s going on”.
Rina Sawayama, who was brought over to perform at the star’s annual Oscars viewing party on Sunday (12.03.23) told the Daily Star newspaper’s Wired column: “Elton John was a stranger that changed my life.
“He reached out to me because he was a fan of my music. I’m surprised how charitable he lives his life because he’s literally the most famous musician in the whole world.
“He wants to be so in touch with what’s going on in the world, whether it’s new artists – he’s always so hungry and that’s always been inspiring.”
Rina duetted with Elton, while she’s also preparing for her big screen debut to hit the big screen as she appears in ‘John Wick 4’.
Reflecting on the role, she said: “I have never done that much physical exercise in my life.
“It’s really scary doing something for the first time like film acting and have it go out in cinemas around the world so if you make a mistake on screen that’s printed and I had to be OK with that and be like, ‘Even if my performance is still terrible I gotta still love myself.’ ”
Rina wasn’t able to have an acting coach on set due to COVID-19 restrictions, but she was able to get some tips from Keanu Reeves and her co-stars.
She added: “At the time I couldn’t have my acting coach on set because of COVID, so I was literally learning on the job and asking huge actors what they thought.
“The best piece of advice I’ve been given is: Don’t watch yourself on screen.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Ellie Goulding is writing a classical album.
The ‘Starry Eyed’ hitmaker is “always” writing new songs but is looking to take her music in a number of different directions because as well as moving away from pop on her next project, she’s also keen to pen scores for movies.
She told The Sun newspaper: “I’m always writing new music.
“I think my natural state is to always come up with ideas and I’ll get in the studio at some point.
“Since I wrote [upcoming album] ‘Higher Than Heaven’ a while ago during lockdown, I’m very ready to write new music.
“I’ve always wanted to compose music for films, so at the moment I’m focusing on more classical.
“I have a half finished classical album that I look forward to releasing at some point.”
The 36-year-old singer has teamed up with Calvin Harris for the third time on her latest single ‘Miracle’ and she admitted the trance track came “out of the blue” but she almost missed out on the collaboration by “playing it a bit too cool”.
She explained: “This one came slightly out of the blue.
“He said that he had the track and immediately thought of me for it.
“Calvin doesn’t like to mess around so he sent the song in the next message
“I accidentally played it a bit too cool and didn’t reply for a few days so he thought I wasn’t into it.
“We recorded the vocal in January. We both think it’s really important to be in the same room when making music.
“I didn’t feel any pressure because both of us are at a point in our careers where we can put out stuff that we love, and is authentic to us.”
Meanwhile, Ellie wants to follow Coldplay – who offset as much of their carbon footprint as possible on their ‘Music of the Spheres’ world tour with initiatives including planting trees and using electricity partly powered by fan-ridden kinetic bikes – and address environmental concerns in some way with her next concert series.
She said: “Touring has such a huge carbon footprint. It’s so important for me, and other artists to try and do as much as possible to reduce it.
“Venues often still don’t cater to this, which I don’t think is setting a good enough example.
“Artists, venues, promoters and agents should all work together to be as green as possible.
“We have to set the precedent for the next generation of performers.”
