Elton talks Glastonbury on Radio 2

[George_92]

Scott: So you’re headlining Glastonbury Pyramid’s stage on Sunday night this year… I can’t believe you’ve never played it before?

Elton: It’s the first time I’ve been asked… it’s come at the right time, I’m a great believer in serendipity and fate and it’s the most wonderful way to sign off in England… I’ve got guests and I can’t tell you who they are.

I like the way guests is plural 

[marathonsteve]

This can only be good

Will be peak Glastonbury 2023. Can't wait!

Dua Lipa surely has to be one. Wonder who the other(s) could be.

[Wherethewildthingsare]

Praying for Kate Bush to sing Rocketman!

Britney. Followed by rumours of Emily signing her up for next year’s Legend Slot whilst she’s on site. Written in the stars.

Yea

Hence my acceptance that he's a valid booking, but he's in the wrong slot

Sunday teatime is where he'd be more appropriate

I mean they could, he's on Sunday anyway. How would you feel if Lil Nas X was headlining?

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Lil Nas X feels like a sub specifically requested by Elton ala Weller with The Who in 2015

I'm not familiar with his music, but he's a young "upcoming" star and much more fresh than Elton.

He would be a far better headliner IMO.

Might as well have Aitch headline if that’s the only criteria 

[EFC1996]

The different set list sounds promising hope he plays Are you ready for love

Having Reg is fine in my opinion. In fact it's more than fine. He is in the top 10 (might even by in the top 5) selling acts of all time.

I like guns n roses, but they haven't done anything since 1992, They are the ones who in my opinion shouldn't be on

It don’t get much better than this, scrambling about looking through the timetable, scrolling down and down and down realising there are sometimes three or four clashes at the same time, me and Mrs c starting preliminary negotiations ( yes or no Rick Astley already creating dissent), writing out a plan of action that will ultimately prove impossible.

Don’t ya  just love it 😊
