First Glastonbury artist announced

....it's Neil Diamond!

First name for Glastonbury confirmed | News | NME.COM

Well, there's a turn up. I like a bit of Neil Diamond, it's a refreshing alternative to Neil Young.

I can imagine that if it turns out NOT to be a mud bath this year, and it's a reasonably warm and placid midsummer evening that this show could turn out to be a bit of an old jack-a-dangy.

I've never been to Glasto, partly because of the authority regulations, and subsequently partly because of the decline of talent that seems to dominate the line-up these days.

I very much doubt I'l be this year again, I have other plans, including possibly an 80's festival in germany starring Kim Wilde and Nik Kershawaddie.
