I hope Fatboy Slim subbing doesn’t become the new Kaiser Chiefs subbing the Foos. Can we stamp it out before it becomes that 🤣 He wouldn’t be my choice either, but..... it isn’t outrageous that someone with big name recognition and a long history with the festival ends up taking a large slot a “performer challenged” version of that festival.

Someone you like? It’ll be 35 years since Fatboy first performed at Glastonbury, he’s a Glasto legend and still popular. I wouldn’t begrudge him a prominent slot at all, indeed could imagine the crowd would be rammed for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure pop bangers If theyre going to have something like that, then its booking Harry Styles and he has a mini reunion during his set. If not you book the current boy band kings BTS. But lets have a look at the backlash against KPop for Glasto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but on the one hand you have an iconic British artist who is ever present and a fairly integral part of every line up at the festival, and on the other you just have some big pop acts. I understand your point but Fatboy Slim's relationship to the festival is integral. I wouldn't be at a Fatboy Slim set, whether it be on Other or the Pyramid but you're lying to yourself if you don't think that he'd go down a storm in a slot such as those. Just look at the Craig David Pyramid crowd a few years ago. Edited July 22, 2020 by Guy Incognito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 How is sign of the times not one of the best pop songs of new times though? Also Harry looks great up on stage. I wouldn’t mind him playing Glasto at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was released by someone not fresh out of a fairly one dimensional boy band I think it would have been quite quickly brushed aside.
