Mumford and Sons have confirmed that their headline appearance at Glastonbury will go ahead, just two weeks after bass player Ted Dwane underwent brain surgery.
The band will close the festival on Sunday night - following further headline performances from Arctic Monkeys and the Rolling Stones - with keyboard player Ben Lovett announcing that the show will go on.
He told the Radio Times:
"We're going to get back out on that stage at Glastonbury as four brothers and do what we do."
Dwane was hospitalised with a blood clot on June 11, forcing the band to cancel a handful of US dates, but is said to be recovering well.
