Nope cos the West Holts headline fee will be a fraction of what Cambridge Club is going to be paying her for a headline set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of show would she perform? She's doing DJ sets at festivals now. Don't blame her, probably really easy money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still more for the Acoustic or Avalon. What makes them a novelty act? They played the Pyramid 3 years back, so I dunno if I'd expect them to show again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've taken up a challenge from Florian Saucer Attack to only say good things about acts for the next week, so can't answer that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mich1268 Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 The lineup poster I am always waiting for is Love Supreme, seems like a reasonable amount of acts go on there the week after Glastonbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example Steve Davis (the ex snooker player) may be trading on his name, but as far as I know he's a proper DJ, so that's a positive. Several big name music stars e.g. Thom Yorke do DJ sets and presumably they do a decent job as they're skilled musicians. I've seen Thom DJ, can't remember a thing about the set, but I did spend an hour or so taking to him after, he's a strange fellow. On the other side I'm highly suspicious of non-music background celebrities just putting on tunes, something any of us could do.

Although I don't imagine Spice Girls will be at Glastonbury in 2023. After how packed Williams Green was for Melanie C's DJ set, hopefully she'll get a proper slot this year.

4AssedMonkey Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 Seen Lionel 3 times, but would definitely go again. Such a party and a great front man. Think he's done his one and out Glasto appearance though sadly. Unless West Holts fancy having him headline? That would be belting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
