16 h, jun 23, 2017 y - GLASTONBURY KRIS KRISTOFFERSON Pyramid Stage Johnny Depp Played Guitar

Description:

Gwilym Mumford in The Guardian:

Johnny Depp’s magical mystery tour of Glastonbury continues. After turning up at the Cineramageddon stage yesterday, where he casually issued an assassination threat against the current sitting US president, he rocked up on the Pyramid this afternoon playing acoustic guitar for Kris Kristofferson. At this rate he should be performing interpretive dance in the Theatre and Circus field by, oh, 6.30?

In truth, Depp’s interjection into Kristofferson’s set couldn’t have come at a better moment, just when the veteran country star seemed to be losing an audience largely unfamiliar with his brand of lovelorn country. It’s a strange decision by Glasto to schedule him between the millennial-courting likes of First Aid Kit and Royal Blood. Kristofferson, who turned 81 yesterday, remains an impressively grizzled presence on stage and delivers some funny asides about his advancing years (“Hello Glastonbury. I wish I knew where I was”), yet the likes of Me and Bobby McGee fall flat amongst a youthful crowd. But then came Depp to wake everyone up. Always useful to have an A-lister on hand, eh?

Remarkably, he wasn’t the only famous actor performing on the Pyramid this afternoon. Right before Kristofferson played, Bradley Cooper filmed a scene for his forthcoming remake of A Star Is Born. Then, just as Kristoffersson’s set concluded, a brief glimpse of Brad Pitt backstage flashed up on screen. A Pitt/Depp/Cooper/Beckham collab is now surely on the cards.
