Maybe I was underestimating his appeal, just looked at the venues of his current tour. Anyway, if he was to turn up at the farm, whatever stage, I’d be there!
Just pure guess work, but someone mentioned Gary Numan was touring, thought he’d be a good fit for Avalon. Also Cat Empire have Sunday free. But they headlined in 2019 so maybe too soon, but would be good to see them back in the tent!
Okay, so not a musical artist, but self confirmation by Pam Ayres on her website. She was in the Cabaret tent a few years back (and was wonderful). Website shows stage time so perhaps a poetry & words announcement isn't far off.
Just checking through my photos and I have a screenshot of the BBC forecast from the 17th Jun last year. Felt a bit warmer at times but was pretty accurate.
Excellent stuff, thanks for sharing. The video is just over 75 mins so I’m assuming this is pretty much what we’ll be getting next Sunday. We just need a sunny afternoon (fingers crossed).
Yeah totally agree. I was lucky enough to win tickets on Radio 1 back in 1999. It was literally the week before. All you needed to do was be the first person to call in and Steve Lamacq read my name out. Tickets in the post 2 days later. None of this begging live on air.
After the hell of 97 and 98 I wasn’t gonna bother going back again. Luckily 99 was wall to wall sunshine and a top weekend. Reignited my love for the place and still loving it!
Radio 2: when they play Elton John call 0800288291. Answer a qualifying question and tell them why you should win the tickets. Lines open for 30 mins. The producers pick the best two they go head to head on air to answer questions. Winner gets the tickets. Best of luck anyone who is going for it!
Unless it's Wembley arena he's hired out. Still seems very OTT but looking at the venue listings, an event due to be held at the arena on Saturday 24th has been postponed...
Claudia Winkleman just said Dolly Parton coming on her show in a couple of weeks. Not sure if that’s in person, but if she’s in the country I wouldn’t rule out her joining Elton. Sure she wouldn’t take much persuading following the reception she got last time and with a new album to promote...
