Chas & Dave

[Osama Jim Laden]

Look.. I saw them last night, 2nd time I've seen them now and they're just badass..

What's the chances of them doing the festival? Haven't they absuloutely stormed it before around 10yrs ago or summat??

Surely time for them to come back..

[lucyginger]

I would love to see them at Glastonbury. I say this every year!!

[Little Andy]

I know they are playing in Leeds in May, so the good news is they are touring. I was surprised and disappointed they didn't play Glastonbury last year, so fingers crossed for 2015.

[Perks]

Yeah, I'd be delighted if they were on.

oh god please no, they were woeful last time I saw them, going through the motions for a pay cheque.

[stutheblue]

I saw them about a month ago in Manchester, they were ok but only played for an hour, not great for £28.00 and night over at 9.30.

An irrelevant void of insignificant nothingness, only detectable via some strange dated music(h)al(l) Hawking-Radiation-esque quirk of non-popular culture and blinkered regionalism.

Best use of parenthesis today, bythefuckin'way.

Jellied eel anyone?

[stuartbert two hats]

I've not seen them recently, but they did absolutely storm it in 2005 (acoustic), one of the best Glastonbury gigs I've ever experienced.

They were also pretty good in 2007 (Park)

[Osama Jim Laden]

On Sunday, they played two sets.. 70's stuff, then hits and newer stuff.. They were smashing.. Can't get why they'd finish so early in Manchester then make us miss our last tram (it was well past eleven) in the midlands.. Its the same tour ffs..

[5co77ie]

were they smashing? Or were they a bit dull but the crowd were so caught up in knowing all the words it didn't matter?

[Osama Jim Laden]

well.. thats just opened up how subjective it all is.. but yes, they were.. crowd singing, chas & dave nattering with them, playing requests, talking about the records they were playing and about the venues they used to be in (can't remember a bleedin' thing now mind).. but still, that ain't turning up just for a paycheck..

they cant be the only band youve seen have a bad gig

[5co77ie]

...no they're not but I saw them at 2 festivals this summer - and wish I'd learnt from the first time at Sonisphere, don't get me wrong the crowd were lovin' it - the duo were just a poor imitation of the last time I'd seen them at Glastonbury years ago.

[Osama Jim Laden]

two bad'uns on the bounce! well thats shit..

this venue was tiny, they had opportunity to be personable.. probably helped their cause

I think it probably did i bet that's wehre they are at their best rather than a big outdoor stage.

That "Aint No Pleasin' You" video is quintessential Glasters IMO.

Certainly quintessential eFests

[Wooderson]

Scottie surely any band with two drummers ticks a box mate?

Happy Chrimble btw guv.

[Little Andy]

Well I've never seen them live myself, but their Xmas Knees Up on Channel 5 right now from 1982 is putting other Christmas TV tripe to shame!

[Little Andy]

Haha, Jim Davidson was advertised to appear, but the 2014 censors must have edited him out!!

[coma girl]

I watched that too, great bit of telly. We noticed he was on the credits but didn't see him on the programme.

I'd be delighted if they get booked for G.
