Official site confirms Gemma is not playing Lisdoonvarna Festival 2003

Posted: Tuesday 29th July 2003 at 19:01pm

The official site has confirmed that Gemma wont be playing at Lisdoonvarna (despite her name being used in all promotion for the festival!)

Meanwhile, david360 posted on the official msg board that: "The debut Magnet single will be “Lay Lady Lay” (with Gemma Hayes) released this Autumn, it’s been remixed by Steve Fitzmaurice & Dave McCracken and will be backed with exclusive new tracks & mixes". Magnet’s debut album ‘On Your Side’ which includes Lay Lady Lady was released on July 7th. See the official Magnet website for more info

Is Gemma Hayes playing the Lisdoonvarna Festival 2003?

Posted: Friday 25th July 2003 at 00:39am

Confusion continues over whether Gemma is playing at the Lisdoonvarna Festival. Laura on the forum posted that: "It’s a definite no show for Gemma according to the management. Apparently her name had been included in an Irish newspaper but they say she’s not playing". However, the official Lisdoonvarna Festival website (which has been redesigned over the past 24 hours) has Gemma down on the line-up for the main stage, and she even has her own artist page here
