Meerkat Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 That’s surely the biggest pyramid crowd ever right? how does that compare to the stones for those who went? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestonmike Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 good job they removed the camping at the back of the field, its rammed all the way to the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87 BEANS Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 +1 for The War on Drugs. That was incredible on the tele. Looked like the perfect time for that show at sunset on the Sunday aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stood at the back for the Stones, and there was loads of empty field back there. It's not even close, this is 10s of thousands more, especially given the whole of Row Mead campsite has been removed this year and is filled with people.

Stones was rammed, but the field was smaller than as there was camping at the back of the field, thats been removed this year and it still full, so id say this is bigger than the stones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meerkat Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Thanks all, stones were the first people I thought of who might challenge Elton for crowd size but looks like this is a whole new level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homersexual Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Major FOMO watching Elton. I’d give anything to be in that crowd right now… I just have to keep reminding myself it probably stinks to high heaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overhead crowd shots are insane, biggest crowd I've ever seen there, topping the stones by some distance I'd imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now catching up on Caroline Polachek. Never heard of her before but she has a great voice. You know the band Chairlift? That was her old band for 10 years before they broke up and she went solo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Already with the ‘might be my last show in England’. You’re never f**king retiring Elton, just admit it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trust1878 Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 I must be getting old...all I can think of is looking at that Pyramid crowd for Elton is 'Jesus Christ I would be dying for a pee' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pronunciation, probably not. I need subtitles to make out what he's singing! Not really knocking him, it sounds pretty good - probably better than I thought to be fair.

northernringo Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Sounding a little worse now.. struggling to make out the individual words. But it's Elton John, so no matter what it will be quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re never f**king retiring Elton, just admit it. The touring apsect is gone. He will easily do a benefit gig at wembley for one of his charities down the line i bet. That will be the appeal of popping up every once in a while, can cash in for a good cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
