I genuinely dreamt of doing this. If I never get to do it again, this has been enough.»The Glastonbury crowd support Lewis Capaldi through his set as he tells them he’ll be taking another ‘wee break’https://t.co/Dt83q16BXQpic.twitter.com/QiTaNwY3XIThat performance was Capaldi's first since he announced he was taking a weeks-long break.«The last few months have been full on both mentally and physically.
