Needed pay day to come in. Hopefully worth £78! still haven’t quite come down from the high! Glad I bought it at Glastonbury for £60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it a couple of years and BST will chuck a load of cash at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I'd agree... maybe Croc Rock should have been the last of the 3? It is only a very very minor quibble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt the same about Are You Ready For Love. There was so much love in my bit of the crowd for that one, it spanned generations. Just getting a chance to watch it now. The singalong to the piano riff at the beginning of Bennie And The Jets is astonishing. So happy I was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted July 9, 2023 Report Share Posted July 9, 2023 Watching it back, those aerial shots are truly something else. What an amazing experience to have been there. October is going to be sheer bedlam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike_Like_A_Mum Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 TV coverage of Elton's set has officially reduced all of our chances of getting tickets by 300% 😭 potentially a really interesting shift in demographic next year. Please don't become like Latitude 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airwaves Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Just watching TOTP Review of 2023 And they scrolled a message saying the full Elton John Glastonbury set will be on iplayer from New Year's Day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 So... 6 months on, now it has had time to nestle a little firmer into the memory banks, how do people view Elton's set? I didn't comment on the thread at the time but I really enjoyed it, probably more than I expected to. I've enjoyed a fair few other Pyramid headliners more (I don't think anything will ever top the Stones for me) but yeah... it was pretty spectacular.

MrZigster Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 I'll be interested to see if they have added (much needed) subtitles since broadcast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendrick the previous year is still my overall favourite ever set at Glastonbury. But….. The crowd for Elton was the best I’ve been a part of. I doubt I’ll ever be in another situation where that many people are all so full of joy. Solid 9.5/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
