Amazing way to announce and a very exciting announcement inbound.

I caught Elton at Hyde Park in the summer and it was a fantastic show. Personally, I've only really come to appreciate him in later years but am now fully on-board with the Elton hype train. What a way for him to finally bow out. 

Regarding QOTSA possibly being against them on Other, don't rule out them subbing Elton. Josh Homme and Elton are good mates after all and Homme sang Goodbye Yellow Brick Road tremendously at the Taylor Hawkins tribute earlier this summer. That would be a hell of a one-two to see out the Sunday. 

if the headliners are AM/GNR/Elton John then QOTSA will be subbing

Our group WhatsApp had suggestions that it could alternatively be Bowie from beyond the grave or ET 😂

I think so too, seem an ideal fit as a sub for one of the first two which is broadly what Glastonbury seem to try for these days.

Preferably GnR as I feel like a AM crowd would be largely uninterested in QOTSA (and, tbf, uninterested in a lot of what AM bring to the table these days also).

It wasn’t Santas sleigh was it ? 

A random bullshit thought -

"Christmas In June" Sunday.

Slade to open the day.

Mariah Carey on the Sunday Tea Time Slot.

Elton John helps us Step Into Christmas..

Just can’t help but love the British way of announcing things.

I enjoy the mix of announcements from getting a world famous rock band to come and play in a pub to slapping a poster in Oxfam’s window.

    • Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
