[Massive Attack's Robert Del Naja
has said he is "livid" with the music industry
for making green pledges but not
reducing its carbon footprint.
He told MPs it was an "embarrassment"
that artists often wear "the climate T-shirt,
waves the placard, while simultaneously operating
in a high carbon, high-polluting sector".
He was speaking to a select committee about
green issues at festivals.
"It's all about collective solutions,
everyone has to work together."
Del Naja, known as 3D in the
groundbreaking Bristol band,
explained that performers
"have very little control" over the
organisation of gigs and festivals,
including how they are powered
and how ticket-holders travel to venues.]

Yes it is hard enough getting the stage show right
let alone the Fat Promoter
Milking every gig.
