Agreed,

But for me it was an awakening to somebody I had taken for granted in my youth and never really respected other than a good Tune. As I watched him, knowing the tunes I was sucked in and spat out.... it was brilliant

Glasto 94 was when I came of age musically it knocked down all the boundary's that had existed for me up till then.

I had pigeon holed various genre's and was stuck on two or three, I left enlightened and educated.

Since then Glastonbury has just been about enjoying the music I discovered, however in 94 it was about embracing all music....

94 was a bit of an eye opener and never to be repeated..... hence why I rate that set so highly...

Me rents went to see him at the O2 last night and said that his new concept covers stuff with the orchestra, no guitars and no drums went down like a lead balloon with the audience. :P

i hate speculative threads but

last night, seeing him for the 1st time since he headlined glasto 94, i was reminded of what an absolute superstar the man is

he made me cry like a baby during 'dont give up'

he made me skip like a 5 year old during 'solsbury hill'

so eavii, when theres an act out there, that can put you through the ringer emotionally, retain his credibility, both as a musician and as a human being, can bring the best of the word with him

theres simply no excuse not to have him headlining the jazz/world saturday night

get peter in eavii, you know it makes sense!! :P

He was the reason that I went to Glastonbury Fayre at Worthy Farm in 1979. He is the reason that I'm going to Glastonbury in 2010!

Don't know where they will put the orchestra - more likely it'll be a collaboration with other artists as he did in 1979 and similar to other sets at the early festivals. Robert Plant is rumoured to being playing twice so we can pencil him in with perhaps Brian May as Percy has mentioned him in dispatches, who else do we want to join this merry band? 0% chance of Kate Bush, but it she did we could add Rolf Harris and Gary Brooker as they both played on her last album.

U2? Muse? Stevie Wonder? They just don't compare. This is what the 40th anniversary is all about. Bring it on!

A video interview with PG and Justin Vernon discussing the recording of Flume and Come Talk To Me just posted on PG's website.

The snippets of Vernon's version of Come Talk To Me gave me goosebumps.

Wow I never knew he did that song! That was my favourite song when I was young (Well I'm young now but you know what I mean). And one of the main reasons why I liked it was because the video had a guy riding a big dipper rollercoaster in it.

Ahh the memories.

    • My wife works for a music company, they have an allocation already.  They run a ballot for it early next year. 
    • This is my guess too.    2028 festival breaks the £400 barrier. 
    • Yeah I did spot that AXS had more available for the O2 shows Muse are doing, though I think that comes with the territory of AXS now being the venue's primary ticket selling platform.    My instinct remains they'll probably still play to a big crowd on the night - sales were similarly slow in 2023 but videos of those gigs showed the venue looking pretty much full. Equally it probably would be sold out if the pricing was even just slightly less ridiculous. Shave up to £50 off some of these categories and I think that would've got people to go with it. 
    • Some are definitely already there with that and with another round of inflation looking like it's on the way, it certainly locks that in. And I say that as someone who also isn't willing to break the £100 marker.
