Cheers. Apparently Pharrell will be on the same bill, but I'm not 100% on that though.

With Alicia Keys as well?

[retromoz]

Stevie Wonder for £2.50! Not bad at all.

I withdraw my comment - well done and thanks for the info.

yep, it is Stevie, his one and only show this side of the pond.

BST keeps getting better this year. If only the venue wasn't such a joke, it'd be by a distance the most appealing UK festival on offer this summer. (Well, except Glastonbury, but that goes without saying.)

Is the capacity lower than when it was HRC?

It's 65,000 now. Can't really remember what HRC was - 80,000?

Very decent, kind of hoping Stevie sells badly to get cheap tickets again

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Apparently there were 200,000 people there for Live 8 so 65,000 seems pretty tame

[TomViolence]

Tempted by Stevie, especially if Alicia Keys is there. However, unlike Florence and Massive Attack, this is one I'd pass on if cheap tickets didn't materialise

[stocky3000]

When did they do 2  events for 1 ticket last year?

Alicia keys is a no

[changingman82]

All but the £299 tickets have sold out for Stevie. So doubt they'll go down to £2.50

[TheSilence]

Shit. For fucks sake. I dropped the ball on that one then

Damn, just got a weekend in London booked for Stevie and Take That (guilty pleasure, don't judge me) but hadn't booked tickets yet as I assumed there would be plenty. He didn't sell out The O2 last time he played it.

Wow.

Are all the BST dates announced now then? Paul McCartney's has a few European dates over June so I'm guessing there'll be some UK dates will be added soon.

Any ideas who's supporting Stevie Wonder yet??

I'm all booked for Kendrick Lamar, seen Florence and not fussed about her, but Jamie XX, Kamasi Washington etc, so very excited about that, excellent day out!
