Sunday Legend 2016

[Untz]

Alanis Morissette for the Legends slot.

[Terence Fletcher]

Forget the Manilow's, why can't we have CLAPTON!?

Isn't Clapton a racist?

Not sure giving a platform to a racist fits in with the type of image Glasto is trying to project

Is he? 

I'd be surprised by that, considering some of the friends he keeps and the many black musicians he collaborates with. Disappointing if true.

[CaledonianGonzo]

His views on race are repugnant but he 's remained silent on tax, so it evens out.

So isle of wight festival? 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Elton's forever playing odd out of the way sportsgrounds.

Must be a mare for all the fans in the vicinity to source their meerkat costumes. Demand will easily exceed supply.

[FuzzyDunlop]

So isle of wight festival? 

if he wants the money - IOW

If he wants the exposure - Glastonbury 

Who got more coverage from their festival Fleetwood mac or Lionel?

Edit - he will need to do 3 consecutive nights if he did IOW too

I cant believe none of you lot have the clapton quotes bookmarked for these sorts of situations!

"Eric Clapton, following Enoch Powell's "Rivers Of Blood" speech, at a 1976 gig in Birmingham: "Vote for Enoch Powell... I think Enoch's right, I think we should send them all back. Stop Britain from becoming a black colony. Get the foreigners out. Get the wogs out. Get the coons out. Keep Britain white." – thus single-handedly sparking the Rock Against Racism campaign. Clapton - who's made a career of playing blues music - has never detracted the comments, other than to say that he was drunk, and not racist, just anti-immigration."

 

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

We need a thingy for dodgy quotes.

[LeeGalvin]

Blimey! I genuinely never knew of this. What a prick.

Someone here will have some sort of negative quote about any musical act you care to mention. This place is a great resource for negativity.

Clapton? racist

Bowie? pedo

Grohl? AIDS denier

Jagger? Tax avoider

etc etc

Hates lithuanians

Grammy Award-winning singer Enya has found herself at the centre of controversy surrounding a concert billed as the ‘Enya Christmas Show’ which is scheduled to take place in Lithuania’s capital city, Vilnius, this Saturday. However, Enya, who is famously reluctant to perform before live audiences, claims she has no connection to the event.

After Lionel's set last year I don't know who could match or top that.

IMO Elton could potentially, he certainly has the songs too but not sure he'd embrace it quite like Mr Richie did.

By someone, he means he has. It's great, I base all my opinions on performers based on Russy's quotes about them.

Seems to be a fairly recent thing, just the last few years. If they're essentially not a saint they're "not Glasto worthy".

How many protests have we had over the last few festivals? U2, Dalai Lama, Kanye....

Presume someone will dig up that tax quote and petition for Adele to be removed. Fleetwood Mac used Hitlers old train to smuggle drugs through Europe.....

Sign up now folks!

Well I did have my "THE WRONG ONE DIED" banner at the paul mccartney gig, and that was 11 years ago now.

In fairness mate you've always been committed. Commendable stuff.

I had a "SHOT THE WRONG BEATLE" sign which I held up when he played "Here Today".

Just in case there's a huge cultural reassessment and reunion tour planned...
