Will Springsteen get his "stage"

[Jens Wildman]

Although very minimalistic, the "piers" are essential. Will he get them?

I very much doubt it due to the crowd issues

[IRISHMANC]

doubt it. it'd have to be put in after Young had finished on the Friday night and would impact although not to a massive degree on the staging for the other acts

[Paul ™]

So the people infront of the stage cant be trusted at glasto?

[sifi]

No.

Next question.

[Jens Wildman]

No.

I thought you lot rave on about how he's the greatest performer ever .... now you seem to be saying saying he's not a lot of kop without non-essential-to-the-music props.

That doesn't sound like he's such a great performer after all.

But anyway, in answer to your question: I think it's hugely unlikely that he'll get those "essential" piers, as it would mean re-jigging the fest set-up to accommodate just Bruce.

[russycarps]

I've got this nagging doubt that bruce is going to be utter shit. Hope I'm wrong

[Filthy]

Hopefully he'll pull out due to Pier pressure

[staggerlee]

Don't think you need to setup another Springsteen thread Jens your other one is annoying enough as it is.

Come on give the Wildman a break the constant hard on he has for Springsteen shows commitment at the very least.

[russycarps]

Hmmm.. I have never said "worlds best performer".

I made a new therad asking this qustion since all of you great people who know all about the festival, but dont read the warm-up thread, could have a go at throwing som shit (it`s been awhile) and anserwing this very simple qustion, so..

Thnx..

But, the shit hit the fan better a few months ago.. are you guys warming up to Saturday????

[sifi]

you know we love you really jens, your dedication is nothing short of fanatical

[russycarps]

Changed for you.

[Roger Explosion]

They don't call him The Boss for nothing...

I wouldn't be surprised if there were some adaptions made for the Saturday, even if it is just a couple sets of stairs to enable him to get right down to the barrier. The gap between barrier and stage is far greater than you'd see at a normal show.

Reasoning behind this is that he won't be getting anywhere near the payment for a normal show and may have therefore been allowed some input... longer set, adaptions to the stage etc.

I also very much doubt it will be televised, though I hope I'm wrong on that score. He's such a control freak though so it probably won't be.

Its not his stage, its the one and only Pyramid stage. If he think he has a right to change it then he can f**k off.
