I read this as there's deep cuts on the tour that won't be played at Glastonbury. More hits. I'm guessing Daniel, which he's not played much this tour. Are you Ready for love. Circle of life and maybe Pinball Wizard.

That's the only way it reads, because that's what it says. 

 

Anyway, I was talking to someone last night, who knows someone that works for Elton and this was their take on some of the guests

"He'll be bringing out a young guy I've not heard of, a fat American black guy, and a gospel choir"

Quality info you heard it here first folks.

Thing is....the tour setlist isn't short of bangers either.  

It's only really missing Daniel, Honky Cat, Lion King tunes and Are You Ready For Love. Maybe Nikita at a push.

I'd imagine it'll be things like Have Mercy On The Criminal and Take Me To The Pilot that bite the dust

Take it or leave it and please don’t shoot the messenger…

I know someone who is currently on site and have worked there for about 10 years, apparently they know a photographer who is working at the official Glastonbury after party in a big house nearby. According to him, Eminem is attending and staying at the house for the festival.

I think it’s VERY UNLIKELY this is true or that he’d play with Elton as he seems to have no affiliation to the festival, but I do remember a very similar rumour posted a few months back.

That was a rumour last year and that he'd come on with Kendrick.

Maybe he just lives it as a punter.

Imagine that? Eminem from Detroit is a Somerset lad 😂

[CaledonianGonzo]

Second year in a row there must be some substance to it. But I dunno of it locks him in to come on and do......Stan.

I can’t see it personally as it was a bonus track on Curtain Call, but he is also good friends with Elton

Good friends with both Kendrick and Elton, so it’s entirely plausible he’s there to just enjoy it, whilst fending off booking pitches from the Avalon café.

Are we gonna keep the Eminem is in a hotel thing going as a tradition. 

Who ever is headlining next year we have to start the rumour again?

Dua Lila posting a social implying she's off somewhere hot and sunny.

Second one.. Jacob from Gabriels would be sweet 🙏 

The gospel choir gotta be for Circle of Life if he adds that.

Dula Peep posted an article about her favourite Glastonbury performances to her Instagram stories 2 hours ago. As if that's not a massive hint....

So what do people think he's opening his set with considering he's said its a song he hasn't played in over 10 years. 

Would he blow peoples minds from the get go with Pinball Wizard with Pete Townsend on guitar ?

Are you ready for love. Apparently he last played it in 2014

I think we have a winner 

[NorthernSoul52]

Are You Ready for Love would be an absolute stormer of an opener. 

[Harry MonkFish]

Bully Joel will come out with Elton. You heard it here first. 

 

Unless in the quite likely chance someone else said it. In which case you heard it there first.

Furnish has apparently confirmed on BBC that there is going to be FOUR guests 

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

Eminem is going to be one of his guests according to something I was told today

[Suprefan]

So Kiki, Jacob for Gabriels,Eminem and Britney Spears. Ok

I shouldn’t be saying this.. but I’ve had a bit to drink so I am. Was having a long chat with a family friend, who’s closest friend is in the Gabriel’s band. Well they are going to appear on stage with Elton. I don’t know what song but after looking at previous things Elton has said about them… I’m not suprised.

Told ya 😉 xx

One of the rumours leading up to last years festival was that Eminem was booked in to a nearby hotel and was gonna appear with Kendrick (or something like that). I wonder if that rumour had some truth to it but was just a year premature - wouldn’t be the first time we’ve had info leak but a year too early.

Still seems a little far fetched, but given the enormity of this show for Elton, who knows.
