Sir Elton John may be a headliner at this year’s Glastonbury Festival but he’s never set foot inside Worthy Farm before.
He will take to the Pyramid Stage this weekend just as he reaches the end of his epic five-year Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, which has seen him perform 333 shows across the globe, making him the highest-earning solo star of all time in the process.
But speaking of the Westcountry festival, which launched in 1970 – the year he released Your Song – he admitted: “I’ve never played it and I’ve never been.”
