Now U2 have pulled out of Glastonbury, wouldn't it be great if Prince stepped in to fill the slot

I know it wouldn't really happen, but now U2 have pulled out wouldn't it be great if they managed to get Prince to replace them, on Friday 25th June. It would fit in nicely with his other European dates in July.

Go on Prince if Michael Eavis comes a knocking, don't say no

I just came to say the same after talking about it on efestivals.

I'm not sure it will happen - adds a whole 10 days extra to the European trip.

I would be very happy if it did though.

Prince could step in Stevie Wonder is over in the UK around this time i think, would be great if he did step in!

IF Prince's people do monitor this website PLEASE DO IT all his albums will go to no 1 overnight in the UK...Plus it will be on BBC TV so that would be an extra, so moneywise it would be a great idea ! the crowd will love it! biggrin

But you know this is the UK right and we don't get act's like Prince walking through every day of the week , he's like a fine wine, and you know how much the english like to drink expensive wine right ?
lol

We will pay, the tickets will cost £500 - 1000 pounds but i bet you could not get hold of one for love or money or both... lol

I'm sure Eavis already had replcements/alternatives in place just in case any of the headliners pulled out.
If Prince ever plays Glasto i will eat my beard and post the video up on Youtube! lol

Prince's ego could never cope with just being a second choice if someone pulls out smile
