But I can't see them ever doing it. Wonder how much Mick will charge for that selfie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay the higher fee out of his own pocket or instead of donating it to the charities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithy Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I've never said they're his favourite band but it is the one he's always wanted. They've paid extra before (Stones) so if they were to play, 2020 would be the logical one given Micheal is on record as saying 2020 is his last one.

But I can't see them ever doing it. I'd have thought if ever they'll do it, it'll be this year, given their playing the UK 10 days prior to the festival. Good chance they'll not be back in the UK for at least 3 or 4 years. I agree though, I can't see it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re very active this year and playing festivals, and the last date before they tour Australia is in the UK, a couple of weeks before Glastonbury. I don’t know whether there’s any seriousness to the rumour they’re playing, but they must be contenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since last Glasto she’s only got bigger? Melodrama was Grammy nominated and she capped off a pretty big tour. yeah she hasn’t touched the same commercial success as royals but she’s cemented herself as a credible music act, a fantastic live performer and capable of putting some pretty impressive material out there. Her time in the super mainstream circles was limited because she’s not for that crowd, and she doesn’t want to make music for that crowd.

If they were going to splash out for anyone, it would be them. Michael told me that Eagles were too expensive (about a decade back). He's obviously not that bothered.

I’ve definitely never heard him say they’re the one he’s always wanted I had a convo with michael around a decade ago, when I had Fleetwood Mac rumoured on here as playing. Michael told me that they weren't, and said something like "no one cares about them any more, do they?" (this was just before there was suddenly greater interest in them, via Glee, I think).

I don’t know whether there’s any seriousness to the rumour they’re playing, but they must be contenders. Last time I thought they might have done all the UK shows and played the following year but they just took more shows again. As long as Michael can try I think he will but by next year I think they'd have to accept a fee maybe around what The Stones did presuming Eavis would pay it. I may be wrong but part of why we have Stormzy this year in a year before the 50th maybe not only as it gives a British rapper the chance but he would have been dirt cheap which gives them more in the pot to use next year. If they aren't this year either FM or AM stepping in then I think we could see Macca, FM and Arctics next year. Still can't see Coldplay involved but not topping it mind.

mufcok Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 I know betting odds generally mean nothing but skybet's market was taken off again yesterday afternoon. It's now back up and Madonna is 1/5 (9/2 24 hours earlier), even above The Cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Madge has been ruled out, hasn’t she? 1. She was rumoured to want 5 million (!!) 2. Emily said she’s not playing 2019. She’d be in the superstar league, but unless it makes business sense for her, I can’t see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
