Going the distance: Editors talk about their long career ahead of Other Voices appearance

As they get ready to play Dingle, Editors tell Ed Power of a near encounter with Michael Jackson in Ireland, and why they’ve outlasted so many of their peers

THE last time Editors went for an extended stay in rural Ireland they very nearly bumped into Michael Jackson. Perhaps that is why, offered the opportunity to perform at Other Voices in Dingle, they said yes immediately. If it is half as interesting as their previous visit here it will be entirely worth their time.
