I can not abide Gaga everything about her is fake, she rips off Madonna (amongst others) & claims to be the height of originality. Not to mention her fans are worse than Radiohead fans. Nah I'd much prefer Rihanna, she may be 'manufactured' but at least she's not falsely claiming otherwise all the time.

On the topic of female pop singers though, I think Madonna would kill it given the chance.

Just spoke to Rihannas bodyguard who says the camp have no idea where these rumours are coming from about Glasto - of course he could be bullshitting but it seems we can consign this Riri rumour to the dustbin lol

Rihanna had 39 different writers on her latest album, no contribution from herself in ANY of the songs (aside from singing lyrics written by somebody else of course). Her image is the only reason she is where she is for me, basically an advertising tool too - didn't she give away phones at one of her gigs last year?

I'd rather see Mumford & Sons, who have actually written some music in their musical career! Wouldn't go and see them, but at least they've worked hard to get where they are to be fair to them. Also have a history at Glastonbury.

Nothing against her type of pop music by the way (however awful half of it is), just against her having a massive team behind her success while she takes most of the credit.

The "hot ticket package" for her gigs cost 150 quid. You get the ticket, a tour programme and a tour laminate. Thats it. :lol:

She really is the worst person. Nothing redeeming about her whatsoever. She (and the team of business people who pull the strings as Simon said) are all low points in the evolution of us all as a species. I actually feel embarrassed for myself sharing similar DNA with this woman.

In response to getoffmylawn yeah, that's why I said he may be shitting me, I doubt its a valid rumour tbh.

I would love to see Mumfords again (saw em support Arcade Fire at Hyde but the sound was atrocious) but I think its a year too soon for them to headline.

    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
    • Maybe you need a groovy mayor who can get you the money.   Anyway, looks like mayors going to get a whole load of fiscal devolution and greater powers...so best everyone gets one, a decent one, and get a load of Madchesterism.
