But that's just it, they may be, just not in my world.

To be honest RHCP would be a disappointment to me as I've never been a fan....and a bit of a let down where everyone expects the 50th anniversary of the greatest festival in the world to push out some golden headline acts worthy of the occasion. There will ways be disagreement over the headline acts whomever gets booked, that's the nature of a festival of this size with a massively diverse demographic, but I do think GFL need to think carefully about the negative press that could be spun by the media if the headliners aren't perceived as being up to scratch.....it's 50 years for God's sake. Me....I'd nevertheless use it as an opportunity to see something fantastic at any one of a 100 other venues while Flea slaps his Modulus.....Boomer or not.

I seem to remember a standup comedian talking about using this stuff around the 'tradesmans' a few years back, possibly Peter Kay, and described it as 'like leaving the windows open on your a*se'.

Shouldn't this be in the TOOL thread?

I wondered about the Royal de Luxe Giants making an appearance but it seems the company has called time on them 😢 They would certainly be big and left field.

Apologies...just a rant over the boomer thing from me. Not meant to be personal in any way.

Just needs to be picked up by some gammon and it'll all be over 👍

I agree....but I'm not. I'm just tired of the whole 'Boomer' meme thing already. Simple as that.

It's everywhere....tshirts, the lot 😭

OK calling it....can we stop with this right now? No offence meant but it's tedious already. OK yeah so give me one more back...then everyone desist 🙄

It's been done though...Dalai Lama, Attenborough etc. Pretty sure this will happen but I don't think it's the droid we're looking for in this scenario.

If the phrase 'it’s a brave booking and something the festival has never (to my knowledge) ever done before..." is correct then it's not likely to be any musical artist in the traditional sense. We need to consider what the festival has to date not embraced within the performing arts field....or which they have only ever toyed with on a small scale.

Bette Midler? Got some tunes, a big voice, some filthy jokes....and Soph 👍

Amazing. Jackson never pulls it back after his fall from grace in 97/98....but would we have since seen him at Worthy Farm?

Will they be showing 'Dickinson's Real Deal'?
