Neil Young has walked back his decision to boycott this year’s Glastonbury Festival.
Earlier this week the musician announced he would not be playing the festival after the BBC, the festival’s broadcast partner, had “wanted us to do a lot of things in a way we were not interested in.” Young, who headlined Glasto in 2009, added that the event had become a “corporate turn-off.”
On Friday, Young updated fans he had changed his mind and would be participating after all, blaming his previous decision on “an error in the information received.”
“Due to an error in the information received, I had decided to not play the Glastonbury festival, which I always have loved,” he wrote on his website. “Happily, the festival is now back on our itinerary and we look forward to playing! Hope to see you there!”
