I think she would only do it if it was part of a festival tour (just like 2020 was to be). Taylor is all about the $$$ and she has zero personal connection or reason to tick it off as a one-off and in-turn probably lose money in the process. Doesn't matter if she lived in London for a bit or 12 of her ex-boyfriends were from the UK.

 

At this stage and global size its more likely for her to do it when her popularity is fading, much later down the line.

was not a billionaire yet and was willing to try the entire festival circuit where those fests in mainland Europe were giving her top dollar anyway. Oh, and BST doesnt pay pennies. Now she wants it from everyone. Plus the jet usage aint gonna help. And that none of her fans will be able

to get tickets to buy her sweat shop overpriced merch.

I would laugh really hard if this did indeed happen simply for the fact that the chaos on the resale would be ridiculous. And the volunteer window would be closed by the time March rolled around anyway? So seeing if there was an influx of people trying diff ways to sneak in and then just literally living at the Pyramid stage for 3 days would show how deranged the fanbase is.

Taylor Swift was not a billionaire but she was already minted in 2020.

 

She 100% could decide to play again and Emily would be mad not to accept!

Also man - forgot how unreal this lineup was. Such a shame

[glastoooletsgo]

It is pretty clear at this stage that the headliners are the 1975, olivia rodrigo and sam fender. All this talk of decent headliners is getting my hopes up and making me sad, please stop lol

She was booked and announced for 6 or 7 large festivals across Europe around that date and I think also penciled in for BST(?). It was part of a tour. Not a one-off.

Yes - said it included Werchter, Mad Cool, NOS Alive, Roskilde, Open'er and a festival-like event in Berlin as well as BST & Glasto. So some fairly big names on the European festival circuit.

He might well have left Twitter - a lot of people have because of the way Musk is operating it

Speaking of his fwends, anyone else have this distracting showbiz news video player pop up on here of late? One of the clips it was showing was of one of Trump's grandkids doing a TikTok dance that's apparently gone viral and it's like "I really don't f**king care m8"

Could there be anything in the tweets/instagram posts that the official page and Emily Eavis have put out regarding getting scammed with tickets and them about to announce something big?

I think they do this every year, so wouldn't read too much into it.

I could see that happening.

[beau1]

Taylor Swift literally flew to Swansea to play 6 songs in the middle of a large U.S tour in 2018. 

 

She'll play Glastonbury as a one-off if she wants to and she thinks she will get something out of it.

This would be great for those who missed 2010 . He is brilliant. But he was old even then. His band covers a lot. One of my musical hero's and 'Songs in the key of life' was one of the first albums I listened too. I'm 62. Having seen the 2010 headline slot I doubt I'd do it again as it would probably tarnish the memory of what was a wonderful night

This is my dilemma too - 2010 was amazing, so I'd love to repeat the experience but not tarnish the memory if it isn't as good
