CaledonianGonzo Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 I'd reckon so. She's already in the Rock Hall of Fame, but it's another way to add yourself to the canon. I'm sure she's noticed that the royalty cheque isn't quite what it once was and she'll have tickets to flog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, a bigger way for her to do that nowadays on a global scale is to go to Coachella where she has popped up several times before, play a world beating headline set, get millions for it and get a chopper home afterwards.

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Or do both in the same summer if the tour is running, the band are ready and the show is choreographed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, if it was going to happen it should have done during her Guy Ritchie/pretending to be British phase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The optimist's way, yeah. But then she doesn't have to take a pittance in Pilton for what would be the lesser talked of event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our appalling media would just be going on about how she's 'too old' anyway. I remember that being the overriding theme when she stacked it at the Brits a few years back.

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Though mind she lives in Lisbon now. The G is the more local of the two. And she's been dealing with the British media all her life. I cant imagine that would be a consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That coincided with Peak Indie Glastonbury though, with Noel Gallagher standing with his flaming sword like the Archangel Michael ready to smite down any act that wasn't Travis.

But isn't she supposed to be awful live these days anyway? Arenas. Manchester was teasing a Bond related announcement, which is presumably her.

Gilgamesh69 Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Tickets on sale Friday. £45+. Apparently it's all seated though... Edited June 12, 2018 by Gilgamesh69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odessa Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 ~£35 after fees for standing tickets at the Apollo for Interpol which is fair enough. Dunno what the fuck is going on with the London prices, was worried this was gonna be crazy too. All over that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 1 hour ago, eFestivals said: finished it for you. = Very rarely does she mime. I think that was proven at the Brits when she went flying off in that cape & her voice stopped. She is the biggest booking they could make & if she delivered the right set she could knock it out of the park 100%. Of course, it could also be a car crash of edm remixes & 60 year old tits.

finn_with_1_n Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Big tour from the people's champion. £10 for Nottingham, Manchester and Brighton while £12.50 for London which is an absolute bargain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Googled "Madonna Glastonbury" on a whim and found this. http://www.nme.com/news/music/madonna-596-1385130 They were trying to book her 18 years ago. And a weird wee fragment. They supposedly: turned down Whitney Houston’s offer to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Probably because around the turn of the millennium it was way more of an NME-approved Lammofest. I'm about the last person to put on The Bodyguard OST, but if she was offering to play at a price that was right then she'd have been a better booking than Reef.
