british summer time 2019

Surely it was just a case that there were more women attending on that day?

[dentalplan]

Men’s and women’s toilets at a festival anyway is pretty bizarre. Normally just portaloos and urinals, ain’t it? In fact, it was last time I went to BST. Didn’t have any sort of VIP thing though if that makes any difference.

Women take a little longer, it's a proven fact.  Sitting vs standing.  It just does.

At the Dylan gig there were longer queues to the men's. Robbie is bound to draw a larger number of woman, so perhaps they need to switch a few men's to women's for that.

I went on Saturday (Florence/National day) and they did this at one point. Toilets behind the main stage I had used earlier in the day had been switched to womens, with the barriers shifted.

As somebody else said, don't know why they needed to separate them anyway.  Last time I went to HP was for Tom Petty and they had separate queues then.

There was no segregation at Blackheath last weekend, and at other festivals I've been to it's all been unisex.

^not exactly sure how the above happened.

My predictions for next year...

Joni Mitchell/Carole King (someone similar to fill the Barbara Streisland slot)

If Fleetwood Mac play glasto I could see them playing BST as well too.

The Kinks/Beach Boys co-headline - If that rumoured reunion ever happens.

Eagles - I'm sure it's gonna happen at some point, if Fleetwood didn't happen it'd be a good shout for a Stevie Nicks support slot.

Arctic Monkeys - It does seem weird how little touring the last album got and I think it'd be a safer bet to play a fest rather than a stadium show.

Tina Turner/Madonna - I'm surprised neither have headlined BST already what with their target audience.

Elton John - What with the alleged retirement at the end of next year of course he's going to want to play Hyde Park. If it doesn't get an extension I imagine this is nailed on.

Rod Stewart - Another example of how has he not played yet.

Joni Mitchell's in poor health, I don't see her performing live again.

Elton John (2016) and Rod Stewart (2015) have both headlined the BBC Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park festival in recent years. 
Not saying that rules them out, far from it, just that they have played HP recently.

Rod has also milked the UK this summer with an extensive stadium tour.

[RaphPH]

Macca 

Gaga

David Gilmour

Spice Girls 

Fleetwood Mac

Queen + Adam Lambert

[eFestivals]

I'd put money on Macca not being on tour next summer.

can't have sold that badly. Extra dates kept getting added.

Tickets for more or less every date were available for a fiver, so assume it wasn’t doing too well.

Can recall seeing Bolton, Hove, Ipswich, Milton Keynes and Wolverhampton; may have been more.

Tina Turner has performed in years, she’s pretty much retired now.

Is Joni Mitchell going to have The Smiths and Daft Punk subbing her?

Bit weird that you went to an old post made 10 months ago to make a smug remark but okay?

Sorry, was just gently pulling your leg and didn’t realise was an old post. Wasn’t meant in harsh way.
