CHANGES TO LINE-UP as ANDY C and LEE SCRATCH PERRY CANCEL FESTIVAL DATES.

 It is with regret that the organisers of Reading, Berkshire based outside:inside Pop up Festival announce that Andy C and Lee Scratch Perry have had to pull out of their festival dates.

Unfortunately, pioneering drum n bass DJ and co-founder of RAM Recording Studio, Andy C has had to cancel out due to recording commitments making it impossible for him to play the Sub89 show on Thursday 21st July in what has so far been a brilliant month of live music and arts. The show will go ahead with DJ Hype at the revised price of £8.50. The difference will be refunded on any tickets purchased in advance.

Jamaican dub reggae legend Lee Scratch Perry has pulled out due to unforeseen circumstances and will no longer be performing at Sub89 on 24th July, due to this the show has now been cancelled with support act Dub Pistols also being taken off the bill and full refunds will be given. 

 "The Outside Inside festival organisers would like to apologise to any fans who bought tickets for the shows. We are disappointed about losing Andy C and Lee Scratch Perry we still feel we have a strong line-up and are looking to the rest of the festival."
