No

[jimmystobo]

when i saw them do screamadelica in london they did a greatest hit show first as they kind of supported themselves.

they played shoot speed kill light and swastika eyes in that set, so they may do the same.

you might get lucky, though i dont imagine it at a festival due to time.

KAH is an obvious choice for Glasto.


Here's the setlist from their controversial appearance on the Pyramid in 2005 - i'm not a big fan but they were excellent that night.  

Intro
Accelerator
Miss lucifer
Rise
Alright
Kill all hippies
Detroit
Jailbird
Medication 1
Medication 2
Rocks
Kowalski
Swastika eyes
Movin´on up

[blackcockerel]

Due to time issues you'll probably get what i got in Manchester, an encore of Jailbird, Rocks and Country Girl. That's what they did everywhere when they toured in March

Is it gonna be Primal Scream presents Screamaelica or a medley of all albums does anyone know?

I think it will be a medley, they are playing Bestival and it is on the line up as 'Primal Scream present Screamadelica' whereas at Glasto it just says Primal Scream. so hopefully they will play all sorts...Swastika eyes will be awesome (if they play it!!)

[blackcockerel]

There's no way it won't be Screamadelica.

[Supermerv]

I'm hoping for a combination of the two, could do without higher than the sun from Screamadelica, but missing out Loaded would be a travesty of epic proportions

Higher Than The Sun at the moment is INCREDIBLE! It went on for about 20 mins in Manchester

[whisty]

Shshhh, you'll make everybody abandon U2.

Agreed. They're doing Screamadelica the previous weekend, and in subsequent festivals.

Screamadelica, plus a few extras, is what they've rehearsed, and is what we'll get.

Slight possibility: Since their normal gigs consist of Screamadelica followed by some other hits to pad things out, and since the festival set will be shorter than a full gig, we might get Screamadelica with some of the duller parts excised, and some greatest hits.

You reckon? why are they advertising 'Primal Scream presents Screamadelica' at other festivals and thier tour, but at Glastro it just says Primal Scream?? just curious. they'll be amazing anyway, but would be nice to hear other albums

[Glastoboy]

6music Djs keep saying that they are playing Screamadelica and they are playing it at the Eden Project the night before. So it seems pretty certain that your songs wont get a look in. They may throw in few others at the end but these are more likely to be the three that blackcockerel listed.

It'll be largely Screamadelica. Thank God.

Vanishing Point is a better album. I promise.

Anyone watch the doc last week? I thought it was a cracking piece of television.  Had no idea it was Throb on Slip Inside This House.There's apparently a 6 minute version of Higher knocking about somewhere, I'd love to hear that.

Made Friday night pretty difficult for me. Didn't manage to get tickets for their gig at the academy in March so very very tempted but I've never seen U2 before.

No it isn't  

I actually really enjoyed the 'collected works' section at the front end of the London Screamadelica gigs. Ive seen them 5 times previously and they were always terrible - shambolic and utterly lacking in atmosphere (and avoiding anything Screamadelica like the plague) but this time they were tight and on form.

The Screamaelica section was something else though. It was like watching a different band.

The 12 inch 6 minute version is on the rerelease from March, on one of the bonus discs
