Elton John brought the tent down.
When you’re 76, doing a 2 hour set of hit after hit at Glastonbury, paying tribute to a fellow icon George Michael… and teens in the crowd are lapping up every song and singing every word.
It doesn’t get much better than Elton John. What a special night!

And Rick Astley? Well, Rick’s just the coolest man alive.

If this was my last ever UK show, I’d finish on ‘Can you feel the love tonight’ then announce a real lion as a guest and release it into the crowd as a truly memorable finish.

I may be the only person who came home from Glastonbury to watch #EltonJohn's set on TV instead. I couldn't risk standing behind a 7 foot guy with his girlfriend balancing on his head whilst dying for a wee.

Elton John and that Glastonbury audience currently doing more to make me like my country than anything our crappy fucking government has managed in 13 years.

It’s a shame that Axl Rose hasn’t sounded his best but I’ll give Guns N’ Roses their due. They’re in their 60s and have played on stage for over 2 hours. I’m only 47 and would definitely have needed a cup of tea and a sit down halfway through.#Glastonbury #GunsNRoses

My kids have been moaning all week that they want to go to Glastonbury so this weekend I've tried to recreate it for them at home. No washing, they have a toilet for a bucket, a tent in the garden and I'm charging them £32 for a bottle of water!

So tired and sore after the first night of Glastonbury. Didn’t get to sleep until gone 2am after watching the headliner. Feel like I need a week to recover and it was only the first night. Not sure how I’m going to get through another day of it but it’s a great atmosphere so we…

So what snacks will you be enjoying during Sir Elton John’s performance? I shall be having a rocket man salad, roast skyline pigeon, a hakuna tomatata salad and a glass of sacrificed tea. And some Camembert. (It’s a little bit runny). Then some Rennie. And the jets. #Glastonbury
