He's static so probably a bit easier to control his levels but still ... Yeah, never really liked his music much tbh but I’ve watched his whole show up to now and I’ve loved it, he sounds really bloody good and his guitar player is pretty amazing too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My word Glasto have really waited until tonight to get their drone shots out, every 5 minutes they love that pan out...didnt do that previous nights... Tonight's set has been hit after hit after hit. Great end to the weekend and definitely still has it for a mid-70s bloke Edited June 25, 2023 by kanecrescente 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Blondie had the same issue. Maybe they fixed it? Either way Elton sounds freaking GREAT!!! https://www.somersetlive.co.uk/whats-on/music-nightlife/bbc-viewers-turn-blondie-glastonbury-8550662.amp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucketEgg Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) if the BBC or Glastonbury had sound issues for Elton on his last UK performance, i don't think they would be able to forgive themselves. They must have prepared massively for this Edited June 25, 2023 by BucketEgg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seb91 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) Wouldn't call myself a massive fan in that I haven't gone to see him live but this has been perfection from start to finish - he and his band are super tight and his back catalogue is phenomenal. Have had a lot of fun watching Guns and now Elton - don't go to many live shows these days so it's been great to be able to watch shows via the stream and it's been great to jump back in here for the first time in ages! Never thought when I was watching an old RIR 2001 bootleg in the 2000s that I'd see Slash and Duff play Skilworms on the BBC Edited June 25, 2023 by BassistSeb 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimiRose Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Shows how much pyro confetti fireworks elevate a live show and make it such a spectacle. really wish GnR brought that. They're such cheapos.

WhazUp Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Elton still has it! Great set today at Glastonbury, glad I was able to catch a Twitch stream of it The thing with Elton's set that always blows my mind is that it is hit after hit after hit, like it is nonstop just music that has been the soundtracks of so many people's lives 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axl666 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Just read a journalist in the guardian who noted that the predominant moods in Glastonbury crowds are generally ambivalence and distraction, followed by extreme enthusiasm when they recognise something from the radio or their Spotify play list. Gnr did as well as a band like them could do in this type of situation I think. You really need to be someone like Elton John to connect to the entire mass of people all at once.

UseYourDelusion Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I thought Sir Elton John delivered one of the all time great Glastonbury sets tonight. Absolutely staggering performance from the Rocket Man! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
