Johndenis Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 (edited) I was going to launch a slightly bizarre defence of Robbie Williams, I had it in my head that between 1998 and 2003 he had a string of sturdy pop singles comparable in their own little way to stevie wonder or david bowies strings of magnificent 70s albums. but I've checked and errr that's not right. These are probably the ones that rightly or wrongly you could at least argue are great pop songs (released amongst some other real muck).

Fighter Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 been AWOL for a while... is Madonna definitely out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 8 hours ago, Fighter said: been AWOL for a while... is Madonna definitely out? No. Not definite. Some sh*t rags published a story that she had fallen through as Glasto couldn’t afford her. But the feeling on here is that Glasto wouldn’t get this far through the negotiations without knowing the cost in the first place so the story isn’t being taken too seriously. But cost aside, I think it’s very unlikely unless she announces some outdoor/festival dates soon. She won’t adapt her production only for Glastonbury. There needs to be other shows. And right now there are slim choices left other than BST so that’s being watched closely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Been thinking through the Madonna situation, the story tarnishes the reputation of her and the festival so why don’t they say it’s untrue like they did with the headliners story? Seems to me the most likely reason is there’s an element of truth in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And tbh realistically it'd need to be a fair bit more than "just" BST - we'd be looking at large outdoor venues in major cities across Europe. So far at least, there doesn't appear to be any strong rumours of that nature since BST was first mentioned a while back. So either her team are doing very well in terms of keeping rumours contained, or the tour will have finished before next summer. That's why I'm not convinced by the reports that she's out because of cost - there's still a high chance she was never intending to be active and so never in.

CaledonianGonzo Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Looks like AG7 is coming so I suppose she can't be ruled out entirely if Madge has d@bbed down. But she doesn't quite fit in the frame either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
