Their performance at this festival will be a part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour, which kicked off in early 2022 and went on to become the third-highest-grossing tour of all time.

]]>Del Rey hit the iconic Other Stage at this year’s Glastonbury, but her set was abruptly cut short because she hit the stage 30 minutes late. She was performing the song “White Mustang” when the organizers decided to cut off her microphone, and the crowd then joined her for the acapella singalong of her smash hit “Video Games”.
Del Rey addressed her controversial Glastonbury set during a recent interview with The Sunday Times and admitted it still haunts her six months down the road.
“I’ve heard of curfews before, but I didn’t know they actually turned the lights off! I didn’t feel great about it, but I was a little confused because I don’t think I was ever in a position where somebody said, ‘If you do not finish by this time, everything will go out,’” said Del Rey.
The singer will have a chance to redeem herself to the UK audience at the next edition of the Reading and Leeds Festival, which she’ll headline next year.

]]>The Scottish singer canceled several shows leading up to his Glastonbury performance, apologizing to fans who were planning to see him live. He hoped he’ll be ready to take the Pyramid Stage, but struggled to make it through his smash hit “Someone You Loved” until the audience lifted him up and helped him out by singing along.
Capaldi thanked his fans for their support in an emotional post on social media but added he’ll take a break from touring for the foreseeable future to focus on his mental health.
“The truth is I’m still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come,” wrote Capaldi.
Capaldi was diagnosed with Tourette’s syndrome last year, and the tics caused by this illness significantly impacted his live performances. He’s been very open about his struggles, and even said he’d consider retiring from performing if his condition didn’t improve.
