Yea...it's not like he's saying he hates him, which he doesn't need asked twice to say about most artists....he's just pointing out that IHO, he thinks Glasto should be all British headliners (?!)....strange, they have 2/3 covered so...it's been a long while now, that they've had at least one of the big international artists high up the bill like this...so hardly something new! Yea....Jay-Z did cause a lot of controversy at the time....then came out playing Wonderwall, which was the absolutely best way to stick it to Noel...Guitar round his neck and all! Lewis Capaldi came out with a Noel heart t-shirt....Axl should do a bit of "Don't Look Back In Anger" or something....🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's definitely one to be had about why Glastonbury is booking two old nostalgia acts in the place of newer, fresher talent (especially when they have always tried to push newer headliners and made bold statements to this effect in the past) but them not being British seems an odd argument to make. Yea...I think now that Emily Eavis is taking care of the day-to-day, with Michael getting on a bit...she's on record as a bit of a fan of GNR and always wanted them to headline at some point (apparently) She seems to be a bit of rocker at heart....I mean this year, it's like a throwback to guitar rock (Elton is a mix of piano and guitar rock....I guess). Lizzo was thrown in to quiet the rags and social media keyboard warriors moaning about diversity. I'm all for variety and moving with the times but NOT just for the sake of it and some years will balance to the old more than others...as that's what a fluid festival should be. I'm glad Guns are getting this opportunity. Let's face it, other than a successful/good LP coming out, what else have they to come after that'll be bigger than this? Release the singles in the next 3/4 days Team Brazil. Come on!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a difference between being a 'fan' and saying something complimentary though. People always confuse that as everything has to be an extreme now. I accidentally watched Robbie Williams live on TV the other night. Thought it was a great show, he came across as a decent guy and I enjoyed it. I can't stand his music though and would never dream of buying or even listening to it normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tboneman Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Yeah I wouldn't take anything Gallaghers say too seriously. They like to troll people in interviews because they know those will get headlines. I remember Noel once said people only listened to Beach Boys because they are so close to Beatles in alphabet 😄 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy has a fair few volume of books of quotes attributed to him...if Axl went on radio as much as Noel, there'd be far more opinions, rants and quotes over the years too...I suppose.

I'm sure that nearly everyone who is actually going to Glasto will be too busy having a good time (whoever they are watching) to worry about the gender/race/sexual orientation balance of who is on stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always bringing the attitude. Because he knows he can switch it around later and it will cost him nothing. But the article doesn't quote him saying anything band about the band. I believe he also went and saw Guns N Roses in the early 90s (or 80s). Edited June 22, 2023 by Spiritual_Chaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a Jay Z fan but he's a smart guy and a great businessman, no doubt about that. He immediately, if memory serves, got positive press after the onslaught against him prior...as he wasn't taking himself too seriously, that endears to the British press it would seem. So yea, it was a good move, despite how it sounded...got folks on side. That's my memory anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet on Dua Lipa, Olly alexander and maybe Sheeran (even though he's in the States the night before...didn't stop Springsteen appearing last year...) So maybe one more slot? Hmmm. I definately think Axl would be down. Elton's in his top 3 right? So I could imagine, especially with Billy Joel, Lisa funeral, Underwood etc...he seems more keen to appear with others than in a long time...
