David Bowie

[eFestivals]

I don't suppose you know if that was a 'no, he is definately not playing any live dates whatsoever, give up that dream' kind of no or just a 'no to Glasto' by any chance?

(clenching at straws etc ...)

no real ideas, soz.

My guess is that if he is happy to do live dates in the future, he's not wanting to do them just yet.

[eFestivals]

You may as well get him down as an R for 2014. (Along with Rolling Stones, Daft Punk and Led Zep.

nah ... there's more headliners already sorted for 2014 than there is for 2013 (really ) .... so there's gonna be a fight for that 3rd slot.

I didn't say I knew names.

and i wasn't at all being serious

and i wasn't at all being serious

it's probably the case that what I've heard is the normal Michael thing of "I've already got next year's headliners" which later stuff gets to prove as not true.

blimey ... Glasto did ask Bowie, but sadly tho expectedly he said no.

I know Neils put forward this a few times as a festival idea, but what if Glastonbury had an unknown headliner

It would be nigh on impossible to keep the secret but imagine no body knew until Bowie hit the stage

Im of course talking in a dream world here

Fair play to Glastonbury. Worth a go, even if the answer was always going to be no

[eFestivals]

I may sound silly here but where was this reported or am i missing something

it's been reported in the line your reply was too - by me. I'm telling you that it's happened, because I've heard that it has.

I have no reason to doubt that what I've heard is true, because I know it's well sourced info.

someones put a video on youtube of Bowie at Glastonbury 2000 with improved sound. 7 songs. It is utterly wondrous

The best headline act ive ever seen at Glastonbury

[Mud Dweller]

Not really festival related as we know theres no chance he'll play, but worth a bump up anyway

Anyone seen his new video? More upbeat than the first single off the album. Looks well in the video to

Great video and tune!

cant play it at work, is it actually any good? Is it comparable to anything?

[vardas]

Wow what an amazing video. He still has it!

[mike46]

Took a few listens to get into, but I like this.

He looks great as well, definitely capable of touring...

[Vieuphoria]

He does look very fit and healthy, that's what I thought too.

But the video is great, have to listen to the song a bit more because I can't actually remember it.

[whisty]

Like it better than the other track. Tilda is always watchable
