    The organizers of the British music festival have encouraged fans to create their own flags and send them for upcoming Live at Worthy Farm virtual celebration.

    Apr 23, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Glastonbury bosses have called on fans to design flags for the upcoming Live at Worthy Farm livestream event.

    The festival’s special concert will bring together performances from the likes of Coldplay, Haim, Damon Albarn, and Jorja Smith in what’s been described as a “journey through all of those spots that you know from Worthy Farm.”

    To make the event even more special, organisers want fans to make their own flags to feature in the one-off broadcast.

    On the festival’s official website, they called for designs to celebrate “diversity and equality across all communities,” “love,” “a cleaner, greener, fairer world,” “all colours of the rainbow,” and “freedom to protest.”

    They added, “We want them to be as homemade as possible – all artistic abilities are welcome, just be creative and get your craft on.”

    “They can be tie-dye, stitched, painted… anything! Just make them as bright and colourful as you can.

    “Flags should be made of material – preferably cotton – and definitely not paper or cardboard. Please don’t glue / attach anything to them, especially not plastic.”

    “Please do not use glitter of any kind. Everything must be stitched and fully secured, as your flag could be flying in the wind.”

    People have been invited to send their flags to a special address in good time to arrive by 5 May (21).

    The livestream gig, which takes place 22 to 23 May, will also include performances from Wolf Alice, Kano, Michael Kiwanuka, and IDLES.

    Organiser Emily Eavis previously promised an “epic journey” for music-lovers tuning into the show.

    She said, “We are going to take you on a journey through all of those spots that you know from Worthy Farm – the woods, the railway line, the stone circle, the pyramid, and it’s going to build into this epic journey around the site into the night.”

    Fans wanting to submit a flag can find all the details at: glastonburyfestivals.co.uk.

      AceShowbiz –
      Coldplay, Haim, Jorja Smith, and Wolf Alice are among the stars set to perform during a “spectacular” livestream from the Glastonbury Festival site on 22 May (21).

      Organisers have made the decision to stage a special event after having to cancel the festival for a second year due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

      Performers will take to the stage at various landmarks around Worthy Farm in Somerset, including the Pyramid field and the stone circle, during the five-hour event.

      Damon Albarn, Kano, Michael Kiwanuka, and Idles are also on the line-up, while organiser Emily Eavis also teased some “very special guest appearances and collaborations” will be taking place.

      Paul Dugdale, who shot Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift’s world tours for Netflix, is in charge of directing the livestream, which will see the musical performances linked by “a spoken word narrative, written and delivered by some very special guests.”

      Tickets are on sale now, with proceeds going towards Oxfam, Greenpeace and WaterAid, as well as helping to “secure the Festival’s return in 2022.”

      In addition, a commemorative poster of the livestream gig is to be sold in support of the stage crew workers who have been struggling to make ends meet during the global health crisis.

      Meanwhile, Lizzo, Megan Thee Stallion, and the Foo Fighters are helping to revive the live music industry by signing on to headline the 2021 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival.

      The four-day bash in Tennessee was initially set for June, 2021, but was recently moved to 2 to 5 September due to ongoing COVID concerns but, when the event returns, fans will be treated to an all-star line-up, which also features Lana Del Rey, Janelle Monae, Tame Impala, and Tyler, the Creator.

      Other acts on the bill for the 20th anniversary include Run the Jewels, Young Thug, Deftones, My Morning Jacket, G-Eazy, Phoebe Bridgers, Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit, Lil Baby, Deadmau5, and Leon Bridges.

      In a statement celebrating the line-up news, Governor Bill Lee says, “It’s exciting to see Tennessee stages come back to life in time to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this internationally acclaimed festival.”

      “Fans are ready to gather together and celebrate their shared love of music once again. We welcome them back for a full Bonnaroo and what is sure to be a truly unforgettable event!”

      Tickets for the festival, which had its in-person gigs cancelled last year (20) due to the coronavirus pandemic, are on sale now.

      Coldplay Preparing for New Album Release

      WENN

      Chris Martin and his bandmates are gearing up for their next studio installment reportedly called ‘Music of the Spheres’, more than a year after their last album.

      Feb 7, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Coldplay are reportedly gearing up to release a new album.
      The band – comprised of Chris Martin, Jon Buckland, Guy Berryman, and Will Champion – have made the biggest hint their next LP is imminent and that it is called “Music of the Spheres”, after they formally trademarked the term, according to Britain’s The Sun newspaper.
      “Chris and co. have been dropping hints for a while but now it’s finally getting off the ground,” a source told the publication. “They’ve been busy working on new music during lockdown and it’ll all culminate in the record, which has the working title Music Of The Spheres. Chris and the group have now officially trademarked the name ready for an album. It also includes merchandise and everything they’d need for a tour. It’s a really exciting time for everyone. There’s no doubt this project will also go straight to the top spot.”

      Coldplay’s last album was “Everyday Life”, which they dropped in 2019.
      The band refused to go on a tour to promote the album. Back then, they said they didn’t plan on hitting the road again until they could figure out how their concerts could be “actively beneficial” for the environment.
      “Our next tour will be the best possible version of a tour like that environmentally,” Chris Martin explained. “We would be disappointed if it’s not carbon neutral.”
      “We’ve done a lot of big tours at this point. How do we turn it around so it’s no so much taking as giving?”
