I was going to ask you what the fuck you've been drinking, then I realised a disco version of How Soon Is Now? with Gibb vocals would probably be amazing.

With Folami providing backing vocals

[Nduja]

It's The Chainsmokers with Dave Gilmour playing an EDM lite interpretation of Dark Side 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Nile's keeping it on the QT

Interesting....They played a 75 minutes set in 2013. Apart from the headliners, no acts have played a set longer than 75 minutes in the Pyramid Stage for the past three years. 

Perhaps, he's not going to be playing the Pyramid?

So in addition to every song ever written or recorded within a 10 mile radius, Nile now takes the credit for the weather.

Honestly, I think that's just the bandleader and showman talking and promising a good time, rather than a specific guarantee of duration.

Let's hope he can.

I have had Chic as Other headliner in my mind ever since the rumour began and thought Sunday or maybe Friday).

As for the collaboration has anyone mentioned Gloria Gaynor as a possible guest. She is touring and I think is in the UK in June.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Well well well.....

So I took at look at the wikipedia page for disco and looked up the mentioned artists 

KC & the sunshine band in UK 2/3 July

Kool & the gang at Blenheim palace the week before

Boney M in Norwich on the 24th...

Chaka Khan in the country

Bit of a push but The Trammps, Village People and Sister Sledge in Niagara falls on the Saturday an no further gig until the following thursday. Village people also have gigs with Bjorn again

And people wonder why genuine petitions do fuck all these days.

I hate petitions.

Starting a petition to get Barry Gibb replaced with a rock band that has reinstated Jeremy Clarkson as lead singer.

I hate Steps. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Yeah. Nothing will come of it.  Was posting it more for amusement than anything.

I do think C-Dizzle showing up is a strong possibility though.....

Tough luck. She's in Manchester that night.

Ed Sheeran did rear his ugly head during that tribute video and we know he's about. Obviously not as a full collab but maybe just to get more armchair viewers interested in the Bee Gee.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Fair enough.  Probably rules her out, hiring a helicopter aside.

What's B-Streizzle up to?

Unfortunately Chaka Khan is playing in the USA on the Friday night else would have been a great shout. Can't understand why she is going back there for one gig then coming back here over a week later .

how long before a counter petition is started requesting they dont play?

[Slugworth]

I'm going with the resurrected Bee Gees colab idea. Holograms of course. Who's going to know otherwise at 4pm on a sunny Sunday afternoon?

[Jamesthedrake]

Is this a possibility?

Honestly, I'd be surprised....particularly after last year.
