trust1878 Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 You get the impression that Elton really gets it, the Glastonbury headline slot just needs hit after hit after hit, and for it to be an occasion, and say what you want about him but he does provide that. Elton John will probably be up there with Bowie in terms of Glastonbury legend headliners.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernringo Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 For me, Macca was better as I'm a big Beatles fan. I think Elton will be ranked as better for those who are indifferent between The Beatles & Elton. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said there's four, but personally reckon there will be a guest guitarist or something for the closer. Maybe multiple like Macca last year.

McCartney could have had the most ridiculous setlist of all time if he went full Beatles (+chosen Wings hits). But I totally understands why he wants his whole career to be represented. Elton is really determined to make the biggest hit fest possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sedra Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Can’t remember another headliner that I could sing all the songs along to and I have seen a lot -maybe Bowie? And I am not a great EJ fan and never bought a record or seen him in concert - just goes to show what classics they all are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
