And with International Women’s Day now next Friday… Can you imagine the Daily Mail reader reaction? Screaming raging crying. Definitely comments like Talent over Gender!!!! (That weird assumption that it would be untalenred perforners that comes from god knows where). If the word woke is not mentioned 7 or 8 times I'd be amazed. They definitely say the festival was finished. People who have not listened to any music since 1992 will be saying its lost it's way. Full on grown up men having tantrums in the comment section of clickbait facebook articles.. . So what I'm saying is I'm up for that. Sounds good 😉 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see it - feel like it's just inviting a level of scrutiny the festival won't want to have to live up to as there's always more you can do to increase diversity etc. Even if Emily Eavis achieved the perfect balance of diverse bookings, she doesn't strike me as the type to try and make that fact into the story.

I'm not sure we've given this particular sentence the 28 pages of scrutiny that it deserves. In the context of what I think Emily was talking about (which I think was the headliner). I took it as an indication that it was someone who wasn't on anyone's radar that that point...Which made sense when the Stevie Wonder information came out because he hadn't played live for several years due to his health issue and surgery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could they have been (or still are) waiting to see how Stevie's health is as to if he can play or not, hence delayed announcement? Would make sense.

gherkin8r Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 Not getting why international women's day is relevant? Given the concensus is that it's Coldplay, SW and Dua Lipa it would feel pretty odd to announce that headline trio on international women's day. Reckon it's because of Steve Wonder and his return not being announced yet. Although also hoping maybe Coldplay was a red herring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make sense. I think his operation was a while ago now so I don't think they are waiting on that. He played at the Grammys and looked back on form. I was coming at it more from the point of view that he wasn't someone who has been touring or on the live circuit for 5 years (I think) and so it might have been a late call (last year) that he was a potential. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The context it was mentioned was a potential all-female day on the Pyramid - but with Madonna off (or never on) the table, that's not viable.
