'N Sync are back on board for Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration on September 7th. The group cancelled its appearance two weeks ago citing scheduling conflicts.

The show's producer David Gest made the announcement, explaining that 'N Sync were scheduled to rehearse their MTV Video Music Awards performance on at the same time that Jackson was rehearsing for his two-night stand at Madison Square Garden. With the scheduling glitch resolved, 'N Sync will now appear on the show as planned to perform the Jackson 5 classic "Dancing Machine" with the original group.

Meanwhile, the list of those who will appear at the September 7th and 10th shows is getting longer. Recently added were Eminem, Alicia Keys, Roberta Flack and Patti LaBelle.

“The Everchanging Spectrum of a Lie”

The Joy Formidable | 2011

The opener off the Welsh group’s The Big Roar album was an epic one, but the band was worried that track had polarized fans. “The first song is eight minutes long,” Rhydian Dafydd, the Joy Formidable bassist, said. “If you did that in the Seventies people would be, ‘Whatever.’ You do it now, people think, ‘Holy s---!’ Some people think it’s the f---ing greatest track on the entire album, and some people think it’s f---ing boring. It’s that element of needing to challenge people.” The band concluded through the song’s lyrics that love was the “everchanging spectrum of a lie.”
