Sir Paul McCartney live at Citifield , NYC (Paul Bachmann for Live4ever)
Paul McCartney last played Glastonbury in 2004.
Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar have been confirmed as the final two Pyramid Stage headliners for this year’s returning Glastonbury Festival.
It means only Taylor Swift won’t be making it from the three main acts who were due to appear at Worthy Farm back in 2020, her place taken this year by Billie Eilish.
Elsewhere, other artists newly announced include Noel Gallagher, who thus is likely to take up the slot just before McCartney as had been the plan two years ago, while Idles will be back too after their incredible performance in 2019.
“There can’t be a dry eye in the house when Talbot breaks down during the now bona fide anthem Danny Nedelko as Mark Bowen picks up vocals (whilst crowd surfing, obviously),” our review reads.
“In what can only be described as a Glastonbury moment, Talbot’s wife and daughter come onstage and give him a hug. It’s a beautiful sight, but for your correspondent the tears started when Talbot lets the crowd sing ‘unity’ from the chorus of the song. A powerful and simplistic message that ultimately is what it’s all about.”
