SonOfTroyMcClure Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Pretty gassed for the Daptone Soul Revue. Sharon Jones is one of the best performers in the industry, and with the added bonus of Charles Bradley and Antibalas, the call is too strong I'm gutted I'm missing that (admittedly for Glasto though so not the end of the world). I'm guessing Charles Bradley/Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings might be making an appearance at Glastonbury seeing as they're over here at the same time?

russycarps Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I think there must be an in-joke with damon albarn that I dont understand. His solo stuff is like a parody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked the efestivals listings and couldn't see them listed individually so assumed nothing was official yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingcrawler Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Thought Coldplay were really good, as expected. The Black Keys were ok, not sure why they played Gold on the Ceiling though when they could have played a new song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingcrawler Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 They did, Fever. I know, but they'd have better off doing two new songs rather than Fever and Gold on the Ceiling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I know, but they'd have better off doing two new songs rather than Fever and Gold on the Ceiling. isn't that usually what the bigger bands do - one new'un and one of their older hits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 isn't that usually what the bigger bands do - one new'un and one of their older hits I thought they usually just did new songs to promote them. The only bands I can remember playing their hits are older acts where no one's really bothered about their new songs, like Paul McCartney last year.

coma girl Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I also found it weird that the Black Keys played an older track. I'm assuming that the extended show will probably have another new track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobs Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I'm guessing they are trying to keep a lid on all of their new stuff, or thought sod it, why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.M.V Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I'm guessing they are trying to keep a lid on all of their new stuff, or thought sod it, why not? Or maybe they need the practice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 When Jack White did Jools he played 2 new songs and a short version of Ball and Biscuit. Is Gold on the Ceiling their biggest hit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarManDan15 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I guess BK playing gold in the ceiling was a combo of things. Probably want to keep a lid on new stuff so will only play two new songs, fever and turn blue, and as tuesday night is live maybe they didn't feel ready to play turn blue live on TV. May see turn blue on friday as you get a couple of goes at those songs if I remember rightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarManDan15 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Oh and loved the bass player from dap kings! Looked like david blaine and borats love child! He was getting down with his bad self in that groove that only weird looking bass players can find 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpo Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Have The Black Keys not been on before? Or Not for ages? Bands making their first appearance for a while are often invited to play an old number, I recall Pearl Jam doing Alive, Green Day doing Basket Case, and Pixies doing Wave of Mutilation in recent years.

rjb94 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Haha, did I mean out of time? I guess so, and I agree. He has a really odd playing style, which makes his drumming pretty sloppy IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adeadenemy Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Not to adopt the hipster mentality, but I really can't get into the Black Keys' newer stuff. They've lost their edge a bit since the days when they recorded an album in a rubber factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuitarManDan15 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Wasn't keen on the damon song but I will say one thing for him, he looked like he was having a bloody good time and really enjoying himself. Which is always nice to see. I always enjoy a performance more if the band look like theyre having a ball too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
