GLC headline for free
- Artists:
- Goldie Lookin' Chain »
What? They've not broken up yet? rappers Goldie Lookin Chain are set to headline a free event in Newport (Wales, as opposed to the Isle Of Wight, geography fans) this September.
The 'Guns Don't Kill People...' crew will perform at the top of a bill featuring the likes of Roni Size and Asian Dub Foundation. The event - called Crow Point - will be held on September 17. Some ten thousand attendees are expected, roughly half of which are probably related to GLC.
The band released a joint statement-type thing:
"Not only are we being given the opportunity to perform on home ground to an audience that we love more than life itself, but we get to celebrate the ultimate British pastime of drinking lager wearing nothing but a pair of shorts and some suntan cream."
Fresh.

10 miles up the road from me..
..might go see
There's a Newport
in Shropshire and one in Rhode Island (how weird is typing in when talking about an Island. Should be on surely?). There are probably quite a few more as well.
Best just to specify the one you are talking about rather then the ones you aren't in case you forget some and offend the natives.
newport in september
not a chance, it'll be clear skies and sunshine all the way...
...possibly...
GLC are worth a laugh, but surely the exciting bit would be dancing like a loon to ADF and trying to dance and singalong to roni size's Who Told You?
those Newports don't actually exist.
See also: Bournemouth and Uruguay.
The Newport in Shropshire does exist.
I live there.

Your sarcastic comments and stereotypical asides about Welsh people and GLC are insulting, offensive and slanderous.
That's why they're so funny. Keep up the good work.
Got any good jokes about those pesky Scots, while you're there?
poor maggot
preston went on celebrity big brother and got himself a top five single, and all he got was a date with that tango-faced bint from footballers wives.
haha

Shaddap
your face.
Um, why are all Scottish people cunts?
Because they're all drunk.
Anyway, I'm allowed to say that, coming from an entire Scotish family... Of drunks.
Right, GLC are WICKED. They'll never split up because they do it for the MUSIC and the LAUGH not not the CASH and the REP. Maaaaaaaaan.
