I’m celebrating by buying a load of gak, sorry I meant flowers.

She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour 9:00 a.m.
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then
 

9am tomorrow then.

Or midnight

QOTSA into Elton would be cool since Elton has appeared on a QOTSA song. Plus it might get rid of the picnic blanket crew when Josh and the lads tear through song for the dead, or alternatively Josh boots a camera into the crowd.

Not the most exiting prospect personally. Only bonus for Elton is we may have a golden hour or so where the festival will be marginally quieter 

No more reactions left today, but big upvote for this, the most sensible post since Elton was "announced".

Wouldn't worry though there's bound to be a lively relevant party act with actual bangers on either West Holts ot The Other.

I think they’re just picking up on the very obvious fact he’s definitely headlining

Can’t believe it .. nme next

I guess there’s always a slim chance it’s an announcement for him doing the legends slot ?

headliner seems more likely though I guess.

No problem with Elton playing, just let's have artists in the appropriate slots. I don't like him, but he is a legend, get him in that slot, free up the headline slot for someone more contemporary.

I didn't get to see either due to clashes but Bille and Kendrick are the sort of booking they should be looking at for headliners. Saw Billie in 2019, she was very good.

Guy had two top 10 hits recently. Can’t argue he doesn’t have contemporary appeal.

and I thought Somerset has been shrouded in fog for the last few days and nights. Don’t you just love the Pilton force shield😉😊

This is a much more cheerful and balanced post 👍🏻

The man is going around playing absolutely massive stadiums. He is a legend yes, and maybe 15 years ago he'd have done the legend slot, but the man has had a successful rebrand into an absolutely massive act with his 'farewell' tour.

I'm not that ecstatic about Elton but it's a good booking given some of the acts touring next year so far.
