The Wombats: 'Jay-Z Will Deafen The Doubters'

Jay-Z need not worry ahead of his headline performance at Glastonbury Festival this weekend - The Wombats have said he will prove the doubters wrong.

The Scousers were playing at the Hove Festival in Norway when they caught Jay-Z’s live performance and were very complementary of his set.

Drummer Dan Higgins said: “He just kept dropping samples from hits, you couldn't help but dance. Especially at a bit of Jackson Five. I really enjoyed it. Any doubters will be swiftly deafened.”

Talking about his band’s own Glastonbury appearance on The Other Stage this Saturday frontman Matthew Murphy added: “I think we're going to go out there and spank it literally as hard as we can. We went last year and played the Queen's Head. It was a lost weekend.”
