circus92 Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 1 hour ago, JayDiesel said: In terms of headliners, Gaga is miles ahead of all other the other possibilities in terms of an 'exciting' act. Compared to Bruce and Madonna, she's a lightning bolt of fun; Bruce is fine, but who hasn't seen Bruce that wants to by this point? I see the appeal of Madonna's legend status, but I'm unsure how much I'd trust the actual act to be any good Have to agree - Gaga would be a blockbuster booking if it happened. Madonna would also be a big get and I would definitely be there, but I could imagine Gaga putting on a far better show. Would love it to be both of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprefan Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 What happened to O Rod being a lock of a headliner. Oh thats right, reverting to the mean is usually the course of action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She wants her Elton moment before retirement and she's just made a gazillion dollars from her tour. There isn't a better ending really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw this sign outside a kind of tea tent place along the top by where Glastonbury on Sea is now. And the other picture is the people in the tent. We had to have some Magic Punch ourselves. And then we missed Tom Jones legend set for some reason 🙂 The punch was great! Best post on 'ere in years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know his live shows are supposed to be fantastic, but I can't say that I've seen that reaction from anyone who was there the last time out. Personally, I swerved him, so I can't comment, just interested to see what the thoughts are from those who were there Probably my least favourite of 20 odd Bruce shows, not least because he just didn't get the crowd going. Playing the Joe Strummer cover at the beginning (which most didn't know) was a nice touch but the wrong place in the set, first encore was the place for that. Should've come out with a couple of big hitters people knew. 4 hours ago, henry bear said: If he is doing Glasto that's an odd schedule - playing Netherlands, lugging all the band, crew and gear over here and then back to Belgium, which is next door to Netherlands It's an easy schedule. Glastonbury and Werchter both use existing setups. All that needs to be moved is band, instruments and crew. No need to transport stages. Easy Money, if you will (apart from G don't pay anything like the normal fee). Still don't believe it's Bruce though. Reckon the Madge/Dua/Oldplay is nailed on.
