Vampire Weekend sounded incredible tonight at Hammersmith Apollo - new tunes sounding as good as the old ones and LOVED their encore taking random song requests from the crowd. Amazing talent to hit all those tunes without rehearsing (The Kinks, Shania Twain, Michael Jackson, George Harrison….i think they could sing the phone book). Really hoping to see them again on the farm. Fingers crossed. Plenty of material to keep us dancing at the Pyramid.
With Michael being the age he is and Neil being maybe his favourite artist I wonder if they're willing to compromise a little on how much they pay for him as a one off.
But that being said - I'm in my mid 20s and my whole Glastonbury group would be buzzing Neil Young playing, and I reckon most of us would go down the front for it. I've looked at his past setlists and he seems reluctant to play all the hits - but I'm sure that doesn't matter, and won't detract from the incredible show he'll put on
