Not sure it changes anything. If Reg announces another BST date on Sat then he's probably out of the running for Sunday GF as it would be the only 3 night run on his tour. If he doesn't do another BST then he's free for either GF Sat or Sun. Taylor could still do Sat if Reg was doing Sunday.

True.....but this time with far more knowledge about how things are likely to go later in the year.....plus far more of the population jabbed, and likely booster jabbed too. We've come a long way since they last had to make such decisions. Still....I'm remaining a little cautious at present.... 87%

I'd be very surprised if it's not been considered before now to be honest. There's great interest in how such things work from the general populace, not just from the obsessive punters such as us. One thing that could be a blocker is the purpose and who would gain from it. GFL may have little to gain when the festival is already massively oversubscribed on any normal year, and for that Michael may well see little point in opening up to the BBC unless it benefitted the charitable causes in some way.

Fabulous news....congratulations to you both....and what a wonderful gift that you can treasure forever.

I'm also thinking the Taylor thing is off the table...for 2022 at least. Let's not forget that there was some talk of ME getting her because the grandkids were fans....pound to a penny says they're now wanting Billie instead. Billie - Macca - Relton.....all guesting with each other.

Talk of waning vaccine immunity, cases still not under control and a further shift in direction needed to stay ahead of this thing. Down from 92% to 87%.

'Tis true....although it's always been known there is a healthy dose of double-tracking and varying the recording speed in there to get that 'sound'.....or so I read.

BBC say tickets starting at £21..... BBC News - Abba delight fans with new 10-song album and virtual concert https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-58423452

A virtual Michael telling 1m virtual GF ticket holders in 2120 this will be 'the best festival yet' . Not sure I want to be around for that.

Been to the dentist?

Seems Elton is touting a big announcement tomorrow which smart money suggests is a lockdown collab album. Thing is there's a bunch of names being suggested who wouldn't look out of place on a G2022 poster.... Dua Lipa, Years&Years, Nicki Minaj, Lil Nas X, Brandi Carlile, Gorillaz, Stevie Wonder, Stevie Nicks..... 🤔

I'll keep an eye out....might be worth asking C&G if there is a waiting list for it...and if you were really keen I wouldn't mind betting there might be a few on the door where folks may have not used the 2 for 1 option and they don't reach capacity ie just 2 people rock up with 2 tickets where they could have got 4 in on them.

Excellent 👍

Just been in to collect tickets and confirmed it.....turn up with 1 gig ticket and a Lottery ticket and you get both yourself plus a buddy in 👍

Cheese & Grain tickets appeared on Viagogo within minutes this morning...at up to 10 x the face value. C&G have asked Viagogo to take them down as it's against the ticket resale policy. Scumbags.

As if you'd not be happy enough being on the cover of one of the biggest albums of all time. What a bellend.

Seems that way....I called them yesterday to confirm and the guy said yep, turn up with one ticket, a mate and a Lottery ticket and they'll give your plus one a ticket on the door. I can only assume they sold no more than 400 tickets to allow everyone to bring a plus one, which could be partially why it went so quickly. I've got tickets to pick up at the box office so I'll confirm it again when I go down and anything different I'll post on here.

Cheese & Grain gig sold out in less than 5 minutes.......2 tickets sorted though.....F5 skills still on point 👍

Oh no 😟

Yup.....we've got Vaccines at Cheese & Grain on 21st too.

Good to hear. We're all rooting for you 👍

Yep same with the C&G in Frome. 850 capacity so I'm guessing there will be a max of c.500 tickets on sale 😬

Yup....all over it. I'm guessing Emily has been involved as a Patron.

Hmm true. R&L is going to be interesting.

Reports last week on no significant impact from Covid at mass events has me on the up.... 92%
