Glastonbury fans ‘work out’ iconic nineties indie star is returning to the festival
FESTIVAL goers reckon they’ve worked out another act who’ll be playing year’s Glastonbury.
They think a “Glasto-shaped-hole” in one nineties star’s schedule show that he’s the latest name being lined-up to play Worthy Farm in June.
That singer is David Gray, with fans suggesting a summer break between his 2025 touring dates, indicate a gig at Glastonbury is on the horizon.
One fan says of David on Reddit: “New Album out and tour about to kick off with a large Glasto-Shaped-Hole in between his London Palladium gig 10th May and Belfast gig end of August.”
While another suggests they’ll be happy, even if the 56-year-old only performs his hit 1998 song.
They say: “A two hour set where he just plays Babylon on repeat. Yes please.”
But not everyone seems convinced David will necessarily be playing.
One fan says: “Not sure May-August is a hole the shape of Glastonbury weekend.”
While another clearly hopes he’s not, saying: “Went along to see Burt Bacharach in 2000 only to discover he had to pull out due to injury.
“So disappointed. Then they put David Gray on in his place compounding the disappointment 10x.”
It comes after music lovers speculated yesterday that the Scissor Sisters will be the latest act added to the Glastonbury roster.
They cited the recently reformed pop group also having a gap in their upcoming touring schedule, which means they’ll be free to play at the festival, which runs from June 25-29.
Basement Jaxx are also rumoured to be forming part of the line-up, as well as Scottish rockers Simple Minds.
Some of the solo stars said to be in the frame include the likes of Eminem, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan and Harry Styles.
