could make a fun camp night out as the other stage headliners. A la Pet Shop Boys

oh c'mon ... if it was really going to happen it would be main stage or nothing. And like it or not it would be a massive massive thing.

But there's probably nothing to the what I was sent - I keep pointing this out. I've not even added them to the rumours page.

No. But I think they'd give a lot of people a laugh and are a f8cksight more entertaining than Kanye or Mumfords.

That field singing "Careless Whisper" would be highly amusing, Tone. If you don't geddit then all humour has left you.

Wham have 5 or 6 decent pop singles, Michael has the same again in his solo repertoire. I'd take them over an identikit indie band or Florence and the bloody Machine who don't even have that in their favour.

as I said, no-ones putting a gun to my head to make me see anyone I don't like. I hated Wham then, I can't bear George Michael... nope, I'm 100% certain there will be plenty of better things to do.

Why is George Michael one of the good guys? cause he smokes dope?.. cause he gets caught with his dick in a cops mouth?

Sure he got caught but he didn't do it on stage while performing, surely that's what counts here. Not that I want to see wham in any way shape or form. But his personal stuff should stay that way.

As for Michael being a good guy, he clearly has a sense of humour about himself, on Twitter he makes the right sort of political noises and his response to his arrest in LA was the video for Outside. And at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert he was better than Roger Daltrey and Robert Plant combined.

The Wham! thread's got enough casual homophobia in it, no need for any more of that in this one as well.

      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.

      Sziget 2026

      By CCester · Posted

      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.
