Ryder Cup concert announced
An "all star line-up" of musicians, golfers and celebrities will appear at a concert to celebrate the start of the Ryder Cup on 29 September.
So far no acts have been announced for the Welcome To Wales event but organisers told the that the event will feature "international superstars including popular Welsh artists".
Assembly First Minister Carwyn Jones said, "This is an ideal way to kick-start proceedings and show the world what Wales has to offer".
Speculation will inevitably start about potential artists for the gig and we at Â鶹Éç Wales Music will indulge by saying that Manic Street Preachers' Nicky Wire is famed for his love of golf. And their 2007 album was called Send Away The s - surely no coincidence?
Who do you think should appear?

His amazing voice,stage presence and personality are, without doubt,superb. He is a very popular artist.
I so hope that he will be included.
