wro_lap Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago Think we all knew this, but that's the Boss pretty safely ruled out by his tour dates 😞 And with 2026 being a fallow year, it makes me wonder whether that's him ruled out of ever returning. It was always a long shot, but will they punt on a 77-year-old Springsteen to come back and smash a set on the Farm? I know McCartney was older, but...

CaledonianGonzo Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago He's been in Europe three summers on the bounce now and it's not happened. Doesn't exactly vibe like it's likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago He doesn't do a lot of festivals and tbh I think a lot of non fans are lost for large parts of his gigs anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago 50% of his audience on El Pointo baffled he didn't spend the gig just doing Born In The USA and Dancing In The Dark in rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wro_lap Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago Yeah, three summers on the trot we've been hoping for it and not gotten it. Feels a bit last chance saloon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d take him over Brucie still hawking his last decent decades-old album to an audience of barely interested die hards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago For that to work Eminem would have to have a decent recent album. Or some die hards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalifire Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago He doesn’t need a decent album, just a good number of hits. He has that. They pale in comparison to what’s not good, but there’s enough since the classics to produce a killer set, and legendary if he includes guests.

CaledonianGonzo Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago He's got half an hour's worth, sure. And if he brings out Dre and Snoop and turns it into a West Coast Greatest Hits affair it'll be great. Don't have much confidence in the latter happening though. If its just some c**t from D12 noone's gonna give a fiddlers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago For songs the wider crowd and general punters would know, Eminem. But I don't think that's because he's got "more hits" than Springsteen, it's just that his are more recent and more likely to be known by the demographic. In that respect he probably would go down better. But talking about hawking a decades-old album, Eminem's set would be heavily reliant on tracks from 1999-2004 to get the crowd going, so not sure that's really an argument.

I think it's universally accepted that she wasn't booked as Pyramid headliner and she was bumped up. But yeah, they should have known better - after all she was paid a gazillion pound to stink out Coachella before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgerGM Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago 1 hour ago, Suprefan said: Got desperate to book Sza, so yeah... But SZA is a woman. Emily definitely needed a woman as third headliner, after the comments they got after the all male-headliners in 2023. I think we can at least expect 2 female headliners as well next year, so neither Eminem or Bruce will be playing I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She keeps wanting to push the 3 female headliner thing which is perfectly fine. But dont tip your hand so you back yourself into a corner. If she had never said 2 female names for 2024 then it just wouldnt have been such a huge fuss. speaking of females who are difficult. Dont trust Lauryn Hill at all. Turning down $5 million over a last minute booking? Take the money and run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
