Dave Grohl Fuels Foo Fighters Glastonbury Speculation With Cryptic Note
Dave GrohlIf you’ve been inspecting this year’s Glastonbury line-up with a fine-tooth comb you will probably have spotted that a mysterious new band – The ChurnUps – are scheduled to play the Pyramid Stage on the first night of the festival.The set times for this year’s event were released earlier this month, with the unknown group set to warm up the main stage for Royal Blood and the Arctic Monkeys on 23 June.While fans were initially convinced that either Pulp or Foo Fighters were behind the secret set, Dave Grohl has dropped a major hint that it could actually be the latter who’ll be taking to the stage.In a handwritten note posted on social media, Dave wrote about how he was looking forward to “churning up emotions” on stage, immediately leading readers to speculate that he and his bandmates could soon be playing at Worthy Farm.Thank You. pic.twitter.com/ZjhC9wls0r— Foo Fighters (@foofighters) June 6, 2023Addressing fans, Dave wrote: “Hey, it’s been a while. Now that we’ve returned from our first run of shows, I felt compelled to reach out and thank you all for being there for us.“Every night, when I see you singing, it makes me sing harder. When I see you screaming, it makes me scream louder. When I see your tears, it brings me to tears. And when I see your joy, it brings me joy.“But, I see you... and it feels good to see you, churning up these emotions together. Because we’ve always done this together. Time and time again. See you soon.”It didn’t take long before fans started to read between the lines of Dave’s post…That "churning up" line surely confirms they're The Churnups for Glastonbury. What a great line up this year, sad to have not gotten tickets for this one ? https://t.co/qGXSqPovtk— Debajyoti Choudhury (@TDC1991) June 7, 2023Now I’m 100% convinced they’re the Churnups @ glasto https://t.co/VQjzBh8Wlp— Olivia (@oliviawarbey) June 6, 2023Churning up those rumours ??? @foofighters@TheChurnups@glastonbury#daretodream#bestyearyethttps://t.co/7vNXrOoGo6— GlastoEddtheDuck (@DuckEddthe) June 6, 2023So @glastonbury it is then?! @TheChurnupspic.twitter.com/A7xx1NPkPE— Tabatha Bennett (@mrstabsbennett) June 6, 2023Music fans have also pointed out that Foo Fighters have a noticeable Glastonbury-sized hole in their current touring schedule.Foo Fighters dropped their latest album, But Here We Are last Friday, and recently introduced their new drummer, Josh Freese, who has replaced the late, great Taylor Hawkins, following his death in March 2022.The band are no strangers to Glastonbury, having headlined the festival in 2017 alongside Radiohead and Ed Sheeran.MORE GLASTONBURY:Here Are All The Set Times You Need To Know For This Year's Glastonbury FestivalLewis Capaldi Cancels All Commitments Until Glastonbury To 'Rest And Recover'Elton John Teases What To Expect From Headline Glastonbury Set, And It Sounds Unmissable

Caroline Lucas says she is leaving parliament to devote more time to fighting ‘accelerating’ threats to planet – UK politics live
Green party’s former leader and only MP to stand down after saying she ‘struggled’ to spend enough time campaigning on climate crisisAnd here are the best extracts from Caroline Lucas’s interview on the Today programme:Lucas said that she would not be “retiring with my knitting” after leaving the Commons, and that not being an MP would give her more time to focus on climate issues. She said:The thing that really motivates me, what really drives me, is action around the climate and nature emergencies.Over the course of my lifetime alone, populations and some of our most important wildlife have plummeted by over half. The climate crisis is accelerating, warnings we will crash through that 1.5C climate threshold within the next five years. So these are really massive issues.She said climate activists were right to use direct action and she gave qualified support to the Just Stop Oil protests. Asked if she supported direct action by campaigners, she replied:I think there is a role for physical direct action and as you say - I always have done and I’ve done it myself.I think it’s a combination of both, to be honest.I think people who are taking peaceful, direct action, whether or not I agree with every single tactic, they have certainly accelerated the focus on this issue, mobilised huge numbers of people.She said Rishi Sunak’s government was more “dangerous and radical” than the Just Stop Oil protesters because of its energy policies. (See quote in the paragraph above.) Yesterday, Sunak described Just Stop Oil activists as “eco-zealots” who were “essentially leading us into an energy surrender”.She said she wanted to help the Green party get more people elected. Its performance in the local elections was its best ever, she said, and she said the Greens are now the largest party on 10 councils, and in administration in more than 30.The intensity of these constituency commitments, together with the particular responsibilities of being my party’s sole MP, mean that, ironically, I’ve not been able to focus as much as I would like on the existential challenges that drive me – the nature and climate emergencies. I have always been a different kind of politician – as those who witnessed my arrest, court case and acquittal over peaceful protest at the fracking site in Balcombe nearly ten years ago will recall. And the truth is, as these threats to our precious planet become ever more urgent, I have struggled to spend the time I want on these accelerating crises. I have therefore decided not to stand again as your MP at the next election.The reason I came into politics was to change things. Thirteen years ago it’s inconceivable that parliament would have declared a climate emergency. And I’ve put issues like a universal basic income and a legal right to access nature on the political agenda; secured the first parliamentary debate in a generation on drug law reform; and thanks to my work in parliament, a natural history GCSE will soon be on the syllabus. I have said the previously unsayable, only to see it become part of the mainstream, on coal, on the myth that endless economic growth makes us happier, on a green new deal. Continue reading...
