David Bowie

[russycarps]

If we got Bowie a la Glasto 2000 I'd be really made up.

If we got Bowie a la Phoenix 1996, urghhh.

Guess problem is that if we got Bowie the new album would feature heavily rather than the hit laden set we had in 2000

yep, but I guess that's the price you pay for growing old disgracefully.I'd say it's a fair exchange.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

Have you ever seen the UK Subs?

The man is a legend and looks less ridiculous than McCartney who strikes me as a cross between Una Stubbs and Ken Dodd.

5 songs from the new album + Greatest Hits Set would go down mighty fine

I've liked the new album when listening on stream last week, so if it's a set full of new stuff that would get him to Glastonbury, with a few hits scasttered around them, then I'd take that every day of the week.

Better than no Bowie.

Big fan of The Next Day already. Would have no problem whatsoever with a number of those tunes making it into a headline set. Never really understood people's massive dislike of new material being played - I'd generally rather have something fresh if possible.

[Ed209]

I don't care what set he might play, it would be quality*. Would love to see him play a sizable part of The Next Day, its current and its really good!

(not sure his vocal range is still there for a lot of his vintage hits anyway)

*must have reality check: he's not going to play

what that doesn't say is the question she was specifically asked. Her words might have been given in a purely hypothetical sense.

I know there's a lot of efest people out there who read Grazia magazine. Can someone please look out the full interview and put the quote in context for us

I've decided I'm going to put my faith in no concrete proof, laugh in the face of other more reasonable rumors and decide that it just has to be Bowie on Sunday.

He kept every part of the new album secret, not a bloody whisper anywhere, nothing. Then bang, here you go.

I know Glastonbury have apparently asked and apparently been told no. In my desperate world I can easily create the same scenario for a live gig at Glastonbury.

Secret set warm up in Bristol the night before just to loosen up then "Hello Glastonbury"...

Nobodies going to stop a man from having a dream are they?

[Vanderlyle]

Really enjoying new album. Love is Lost is ace - apart from the wee Beatles tribute ' Love is lost / lost is love'.

[Poliwhirl]

Listening to the new album now finally. Really liking it. Id love to see Bowie at Glastonbury but cant see it happening.

[dancelittleliar]

If he was there I would absolutely lose my shit and it would be a ridiculously strong set of headliners, on the assumption that Stones will be there. I just refuse to let myself get ahead of myself.

But. but, say they are still struggling for the Sunday night, dave's decided that actually he could tour and Ol' Eavis has put another call in...

"David? It's Michael.

Eavis.

Michael Eavis. Yeah from Glastonbury, that's the one. Look I've just been reading NME..."

Love the new album and it would be fantastic if he did play, please Bowie! Rumour his wife mentioned something about live tour dates today.

[gizmoman]

He looks awful and ridiculous. That's how I imagine Billie Armstrong from Greenday and Blink 182 to look in 20 years time.
