did Jay-z hurt the tickets sales of Glasto

Glastonbury will be headlined by a traditional act next year after festival bosses admitted the event lost money.

Eavis said: "We'll probably be going for the more traditional headliner next year because there are more of them around and after this year everyone wants to come onboard because it was such a good do."

Organiser Michael Eavis said the presence of hip hop star Jay Z had helped to convince traditional bands the festival was worthwhile and they would be topping the bill in 2009.

He also revealed fans wanting to attend next year's Glastonbury Festival will be able to reserve their tickets six months in advance for the first time via an innovative deposit system.

From October, 100,000 tickets will be made available for a £50 deposit with fans paying the full amount on April 1.

Ne-Yo at the o2

Ne-Yo's new album is called The Year of the Gentleman - and that was exactly the theme of this hour long offering at the O2's acoustic venue last night.Neyogig

The band wore grey pin-striped suits, the backing dancers wore full ball gowns and Ne-Yo himself sported a black, then white, tuxedo with top hat, bow tie and diamond cane in tow.

He effortlessly mixed an old-fashioned flavour reminiscient of the Rat Pack days with sweetly catchy melodies and established hits like Because of You, Sexy Love and Closer.

Club4Climate ECo Nightclub

Sustainability got sexier last week as Coldcut and Jade Jagger hosted the opening of Surya in King’s Cross. The Club4Climate project is London’s first taste of eco-friendly clubbing, making clubbers happy in the knowledge that their organic beverage-induced booty shaking can generate 60% of the energy needed to run the club. The venue’s most exciting innovation is the piezoelectric dancefloor, which uses quartz crystals and ceramics to turn clubbers’ movement into electricity!

And it’s not the first. Another club in Rotterdam has been going for some time now using the same technology. Clever, isn’t it? I’d love to see more of this. Imagine generating electricity in public spaces like train station concourses or shopping centres, schools, libraries, museums just from the footsteps of the people walking through.

Man shot at london nightclub

A man shot dead outside a London nightclub became the 90th murder victim in the capital this year, Scotland Yard detectives said last night.

The victim, who is said to have been in his 20s, was shot up to six times as he stood talking to his friends in the early hours of yesterday.

Armed police and the London Ambulance Service responded at 3.45am to reports of gunshots outside the Red nightclub, near Limehouse station, East London.

GAY Closes its door for the last time

One of London's most famous gay nightclubs said goodbye at the weekend, but despite speculation that Kylie Mingue would perform at G-A-Y's send-off, her sister Dannii Minogue was there instead.

The Astoria building which hosts G-A-Y nights will be pulled down to make way for a new central London rail project.

She was joined a host of G-A-Y's favourite acts including boy band McFly who once stripped off and performed naked on stage. Others included indie band Texas, former Eurovision winners Bucks Fizz, Sophie Ellis Bextor, The Feeling, Alcazar, up and coming gay singer Sam Sparro and comedian Pam Ann.

Saturday nights at G-A-Y have long featured performances from major pop singing talent including Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Christina Aguilera, The Spice Girls, Girls Aloud, the Suga Babes and Steps.
