Also notable: Elton John had never been to the famous British Festival before his closing performance at Glastonbury. The 76-year-old artist said this in an interview with presenter Clara Amphoe on BBC on Sunday evening. He saw the celebration on TV. “And what I love about it is that it gives young, budding artists an opportunity to perform here. So if I would have been there earlier, I might have been found on one of the smaller stages,” said the world star.
John caused some confusion during his performance by saying that it was “probably” his last appearance in England. Her show at Glastonbury was marketed as the British singer’s farewell concert. Elton told the audience at one point, “This is a special and special night for me.” However, Elton said, “This may be my last appearance in England.” “So I have to do my best. You’ve been here for so long.” By the way, this isn’t the last show Elton will give. It’s in Stockholm on July 8.
