Also Matt Bellamy dabbing on stage 5 years ago caused the most uttered phrase on eFestivals in 2022.

Fun fact - Nantwich Town's nickname is the dabbers.

Yeah but you're allowed to have no more tunes when you're 95 years old.

Someone who Neil believes to have accurate info came on this morning and said Macca is out with Harry in.

I didn’t think they had info Harry was in? Just Macca was out, and they then speculated Harry could be in?

In fact past the age you can get a free bus pass.

Tbf that documentary would have been a lot better if it showed Macca coming up with New Born not Get Back.

Paul McCartney would drop dead if he heard the New Born riff.

Same people who’d give a fuck about it being Nantwich’s nickname, surely.

So we're agreed. Muse subbed by Olivia Rodrigo (2019 booking) on the Saturday, J.Cole subbed by Adele on the Sunday. Stevie Nicks in the Acoustic tent and Noel Gallagher in the mud.

A fine day's sleuthing, team. Well in.

Only thing I can agree with here is Noel Gallagher in the mud. Liam by far the superior brother.

It was a guy that may or may not have good info. Apparently he said Madge was down to play a few years ago so go figure. Neil said he’s got conflicting news from two sources, and he’s going with the Madge guy.

A regular poster here who’s (I think) local still thinks it’s Macca. 

Also, in December one of the admin guys from the Fans On The Run FB site, who’s seemingly got connections, said that he’d heard that Macca would be touring, and Glastonbury would be at the start of the tour. 
 

Obviously things change, and Macca may have had second thoughts, but just because Neil has decided to believe one guy over another, it doesn’t mean that’s deffo the case.

Weird, I posted Muse/Olivia Rodrigo co-headline as a prediction on the R&L 2023 thread but I think it’s been lost in the forum’s dead stage.

Only question left to answer is what’s replacing the Beat Hotel?

I think if Elton was ever gonna headline he’d booked as a first choice, not drafted in as a late replacement. 

Is it a late replacement though? Do previous cancelled years even count?

Arcadia. Getting rid of that was the biggest mistake Michael Eavis ever made and I don't blame him for walking away from the festival after that blunder.

Had no idea the Beat Hotel was disappearing.

Wonder if they could put another stage there. Could do an indie throwback stage and have the likes of Jack Peñate and Joe Lean and the Jing Jang Jong headlining. Yuck and WU LYF could come back and play it. Would be unreal.
