US EditionRod Stewart Walks Off Glastonbury Stage Saying 'I Need a Cup of Tea' - Liverpool Echo
- Rod Stewart, aged 80, performed on Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage on Sunday afternoon at Worthy Farm and plans to entertain the crowd with guests and an orchestra.
- Ahead of the event, Stewart expressed frustration over his limited stage time, demanding an hour and a half instead of the allotted hour and 15 minutes and disliked the term 'teatime slot' for his set.
- Stewart revealed he plans to enjoy himself with a few drinks before performing and emphasized wanting the gig to be memorable while working on the set list in a relaxed manner.
- He disclosed the performance costs him £300,000 while Glastonbury pays about £120,000, affirmed he does not mind being called a 'legend' because he feels he has earned it, and stated, "It’s going to cost me 300,000 to do it and they only pay you about 120,000 quid."
- In addition to music, Stewart aspires to reduce his 100m sprint time from 19 to 17 seconds to surpass Kenton Brown's 14.21-second record for septuagenarians set in October 2024, reflecting on mortality amid recent family losses.
