According to an article on efestivals.co.uk, it says, according to an article on the Bristol Evening Post website, that Michael Eavis has said that ex-Beach Boy Brian Wilson is to bring his ‘Smile’ show to Glastonbury next June.

Cool.

Does anybody know if anyone is saying that anyone is saying something about someone reckoning other bands are playing?

‘Smile’, is obviously the great lost classic that was initially recorded post ‘Pet Sounds’ which almost didn’t make it out there, but now, 35 years later, has. And it’s great.

i'll strongly bet that its true. i'm pretty sure the status quo thing is true also. which is not so good. i'm not sure if brian wilson would be headlining though. i can't quite see it...maybe the sunset slot on the pyramid?

Might have to go.

It's certainly the right setting for what is not an album, but a performance.

Re: Cheery news: Brian Wilson to take Smile to Gla

yes it would. status quo cant be true can it? i thought glasto had gone down the toilet lineup-wise when rod stewart played but that would be a new low. once upon a time they had people like david bowie and radiohead. :(

I don't care what else is there that weekend. Brian Wilson sells the ticket to me by itself.

Some of The Beach Boys songs are quite astounding.

U2 are headlining according to the Glastonbury newspaper which has been correct every year so far.

I'd go just for Wilson.
