Emily on from 25 mins.

Talks about this year being great, how the Park has come on so well since it started, how Wet Leg could've been on the Pyramid, emerging talent, how they book bands on how they are live as opposed to album sales, gender split and diversity being important to the stage bookers, environmental stuff, electric cars on site, Pyramid is mainly electric, bigged up Wet Leg, Big Thief, Gabriels, Girl in Red. That was about it.

 

Oh, but she shouted "BRITAIN FIRST" into the mic at the end which was a surprise and confirmed she was wearing a "Free Tommy Robinson" tshirt. Said 22 was full of Remoaners and said Liz Truss would be speaking on the Pyramid next year. Also called Greta Thunberg "a pixie headed little shitbag".

So the Stanley Donwood T shirt next year could be a bit more erm radical?  Plus the flag flying over the Pyramid obviously.  

vomits into mouth

As for other dream headliners, Eavis has her hopes set on landing Fleetwood Mac, Tom Waits or Kate Bush.

Very quiet in the interview front this year, that Cosmo one is the only one I've seen in ages.

Horrific, isn't it. I'm not surprised they are just getting on with it these days.

Surely, sadly, painfully, Fleetwood Mac are a write off now? No Christine, and seemingly no Lindsey, can't imagine they'd book just Mick and Stevie?

online abuse is horrific in any form .... and its certainly more prevalent post pandemic .... they continue to do the best they can to put on an amazing event .... people need to give their heads a wobble before posting things they deem to be funny which other people would see as abuse . Big Up to the Eavis family lets hope things change and this kind of thing gets well and truly stamped out
