"Boards of some major music biz companies" is selling him short. He used to be CEO of freaking Ticketmaster. He now runs a major music consultancy. He was and is extremely connected in the industry.

Apparently he leaked the Oasis news too, before quickly deleting it. Still vanishingly unlikely to be true but certainly interesting.

Cannot picture them having Swift, Rodrigo and Wonder. How many times have they had an all-American trio?

Now we're talking. Until the final announcement disappoints us, this is what this thread should be about. Less of the low-hanging fruit and more big dreaming!

Imagine if it did turn out to be true. A stand-alone TS gig. Greatest coup in Glastonbury history, hands down.

Stevie would be such a great get! But surely a bit unlikely to have both him and Olivia Rodrigo play both BST and Glasto?

She’d love to usurp either Matty or Liv. Feels more likely she’d replace Liv in terms of the balance though.

There's a thought. They've never had two BST players in the same year, have they?

Would be bigger than Prince.

It would be quite the power play for Swift to cash in her rain check specifically to deny two people she may have beef with from topping the G.

Concur. Absolutely if it happens.

You've got to love that type of shithousery if it were true.

 

Move along plebs, the big dog is here. 

[GordonMcG]

It's definitely interesting to see Nathan Hubbard say that. Didn't know about his Ticketmaster past, but he also has hosted an Every Single Album Taylor Swift podcast with Nora Princiotti (worth a listen if you're a fan).

 

It still feels so massive that it's unlikely, but bloody hell that would be incredible.

Oh that’s a funny/interesting take on the story, so we can already guess a couple of songs on her setlist! 

[Avalon_Fields]

Resale Day would be an even bigger meltdown 

[William Mann]

Can confirm Robbie Williams is not going to be at Glastonbury next year. Was at his movie premiere last night so I asked him, he said he’s never been asked! Also an interview with Daily Mail confirming that. On bright side I had a brilliant night! 

[NorthernSoul52]

Shedload of brass for Swift and Wonder.

Don’t think she’s written a rebuttal to The Grudge yet, but we can be sure one would magically appear if they happened to be playing the same event on the same weekend … 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Or she could just play ‘This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things’ and blow a kiss at the end. 

[Avalon_Fields]

Wonder & guest McCartney for Ebony & Ivory duet Sunday night… it must be! 
 

(I do really hate that song)

[CantWaitForGlasto22]

Taylor at Glastonbury would be amazing, obviously. But my daughter who is currently very happy to go to Granny’s house while I’m there will DEFINITELY have something to say about it!!!

I mean this is one way to find out. Fair play. Now can you please go and ask Matty, Taylor, Stevie etc?!!!

*if* this turned out to be correct, I'd have to assume she'd be playing Sunday night, just as she would have been in 2020 - presumably Sunday was deliberately selected as being "best" for her, just as everything she does is carefully considered.

 

But it's not going to happen obviously.

and with the absolute need to keep it 100% quiet until after the ticket sale too, which has been achieved if it ends up being true
