Nelly Furtado was on the Wishmachine - as were a lot of the acts circulating at the moment (and a lot who aren't.....as yet!)
Â
I think she'd be an interesting booking. As long as she includes 'the hits' in her setlist then I think she'd go down well.
I think people are very much underestimating Neil Young, either that or I'm completely missing the mark.Â
Â
He's been my favourite artist for about ten years and I'm currently 31, plenty of my friends love him too from the ages of about 25 to 35 whilst not being able to name a song by Olivia Rodrigo or a Charlie XCX whilst obviously knowing who they are. I'll caveat this by saying this may be coming from a place of bias but I really didn't think we were that much of an outlier, I have a eclectic taste in music - I'm not one of those that won't listen to anything made after the 70s!
Â
With regards to age or ability to put on a show, have you bother to watch any of his performances from the last couple of years? There's no where near the drop off in most artists his age and I'd argue he's held up at least as well as a McCartney and definitely better than Elton.
Â
One of the best songwriters of all time and one of the best guitarists of all time over both the electric and acoustic and would be classed as such by his peers and we are talking about metrics? Maybe he won't get the young crowd but the last time I checked the crowd wasn't known for being young at Glasto, one of the older average ages I would guess?!
It is very good but doesn’t appear to have had the commercial success of the last one. The singles from Father of the Bride were all over radios, tv shows, adverts etc.Â
KoL's dates make me really unsure, UK shows at the end of June/start of July then playing NOS on the Friday of TRNSMT before playing in New Jersey six days after NOS, I can't see them travelling back to the UK for one show before going back to America
