I want him to do a secret Fireman set. But I'd settle for this:

 

Class song this.

I’ll reiterate what I’ve previously said...

Temporary Secretary or don’t bother.

Incredible to think that one of the best pop songwriters of the last 50 years is booked to headline - and we also get Macca into the bargain.

Ringo’s playing?

[CaledonianGonzo]

As long as he plays this utter banger.

Gear!

I missed the Cathy Dennis announcement.

If you are hoping for Macca to headline next year this article by friend of the festival John Harris may prove interesting.

I have just started listening to his picks and my wish list for his set list next year is already changing.

Yep defo agree with those recommendations.

Gave Tug of War a spin yesterday for the first time in years. Still fairly shite.

Any idea what this one means?

Maybe RATM dropping out and Macca taking their place? Arguably the strongest reserve in history...

I’ve seen that tweeted by a few artists. I assume they’re just in the highlights reel somewhere.

Having now actually read what Coachella put, I think you’re right. Weirdly relieved about that.

[CaledonianGonzo]

How will they find room for any other artists in this if they're also including all of Beychella?

Apologies if posted already, but Paul McCartney is on Adam Buxton's podcast this week. Haven't listened yet but it's possible he might talk about Glastonbury. Will report back if so.

Ha! I just listened to it at the gym and it's good stuff (I won't give any spoilers re Glasto).

Excellent stuff! Glasto stuff is actually neither here nor there for me as I don't have a ticket and am not that arsed if Macca plays really. But thought others here might like to check it out. Will probably listen later today.

I listened to it all because of you and no fucking Glasto news. Didnt need to give spoilers as there arent any. Cheers (still a good podcast)

Your big mistake was thinking that McCartney could mention Glastonbury on there and it wouldn’t already be pasted all over the internet.

I can confirm that the above is all correct. I thought he came across as a good bloke and he seemed happy to share his stories (no idea if they were 'exclusives'). My fave line was: "Don't ask me about dates. I know Sgt Pepper was 1967 but that's it." (Spoiler alert)

Likewise! Really good interview though, well worth a listen if you have even a passing interest in McCartney/the Beatles.

Always listen to Adam's podcasts anyway, this was certainly a good un.

Yeah they are always great. One of my favourite podcasts.

He's a legend. But I find that if I'm not interested in the interviewee, they can drag on a bit. Not this one though, Macca on great form.
