Jay-Z does Wonderwall & 99 Problems - Glastonbury UK 2008 by phoneshopuk

http://www.phoneshopuk.biz Jay-Z answered his critics, notably Oasis's Noel Gallagher at Glastonbury. Striding on stage with a guitar slung over his shoulder, he led the crowd in a rendition of Oasis's "Wonderwall", smiling throughout, and with wife Beyonce Knowles in attendance, his set included songs such as "99 Problems". In a radical departure from the indie rock and guitar bands commonly associated with Glastonbury, the festival recruited the New Yorker in a bid to reach out to a younger audience. Michael Eavis, who runs the festival on his dairy farm, admitted they had "stuck their necks out on this one." Organisers staunchly defended the choice of Jay-Z, despite the slow ticket sales and sniping from Glastonbury veterans like Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher. In April, Gallagher slammed the booking of Jay-Z to headline to festival as "wrong", declaring: "I'm not having hip-hop at Glastonbury. It's wrong." http://www.phoneshopuk.biz
