nikkic Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 So we're not there, either by choice or the ticket gods not shining on us. But hey, let's chat about the bands/acts we've seen on the TV. Who's good, who's bad, who has surprised you? I've just seen Nao on The Park stage. Never heard of her but she's going down a storm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlastoSimon Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 I liked Nao, caught a bit of James and also watched ZZ Top, not a bad day. It is a bit weird though, this watching on TV lark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkic Posted June 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Yeah obviously no where near the same, still good to watch some amazing live music though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tillyandthewall Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) Nothing much has really impressed me so far, Christine and the Queens, Nao and Aurora haven't done anything that would have made me make a beeline to see them elsewhere. But there's plenty more acts to come, I'm sure there will be plenty that will tickle me in the coming days. Edit, now got ZZ Top on. Sitting here in the evening sun watching them with a cold beer, it would be 100x better in the grass at the Pyramid lazing out to them.

Craigston Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 I've seen quite a bit on the Iplayer - Blossoms, Christine and the queens a bit of skepta, two door and Jesse Glynne. Not bad. Liked half moon run and xy and o. You can keep your rat boy and Dhaka bhaka though! Just watched foals who looked great although, when I saw em on their arena tour in Feb, I felt they were better suited to a smaller venue. lost sound for the start of their final track two steps twice which lost momentum as a result - with the crowd at least. Looking forward to underworld later and after 5 long years off (having a daughter), it must be time for a return to worthy farm next year!

Essex_George Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Foals looked really good, great energy and really on top of their game. Really wish I was on the farm now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st dan Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Sound quality on BBC is absolutely horrendous for Muse here but they look great - bet it's fantastic in that crowd! What a front man Matt Bellamy is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a front man Matt Bellamy is! The sound is gash. Those drums sound like they're being played underwater and none of the backing vocals seem to be coming through.

OG Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Whilst watching Underworld, it's the first time I've wished i was there this year. Up until this i really thought id hit lucky this year with the traffic problems etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackg1000 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Feel exactly the same, gutted I couldn't make it this year but even more now after watching Underworld. I would say this set was as good as if not better than Everything Everything. This has been a truly magnificent effort from Underworld. Karl Hyde is almost 60........

Starchild771 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Sigur Ros - Stunning and soulful! ...and credit to the camera men and production staff for the fantastic visuals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man with a Plan Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Well online and TV since a-lot of sets are not on TV now. Today I seen Ezra Furman who I was pretty impressed with. I had not heard of him but really enjoyed that. I also seen Jack Garrett who I was very impressed with. Foals and some other acts which were a bit 'meh'. Caught a bit of ZZ Top which was good. I found Ronnie Spector to be really good and Muse to be their usual amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklord Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Muse were amazing, setlist could have been better as it was the same as on Drones tour but The Globalist was aaammmazing. Now Sigur Ros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keef Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Watching underworld now, is anyone else getting slight tempo changes here and there? Is it happening live, or is the BBC coverage a bit dodgy, or is it my TV/Virgin media? Great set though, would love to be there although I did see them at Camden Roundhouse earlier in the year so not feeling too bad about it. Who am I kidding, of course I would be there in a heartbeat if I could!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
