The Other Steve

About Today for me is something very special but people will probably know it more for it's movie placements particularly at the end of The Warrior which is just a great use of the song. Hardly any talking, just the music to end the film. If you not watched the movie do not watch this spoiler.

Not blown away but plenty on there plus my favourite band ever closing the festival on the Sunday. Plenty for me though, loads more to be announced and the bands I didn't know existed yet which I'll uncover over next couple of months. Bring it on.

Me too... It will be amazing 🤩

Why is that? I've heard others say it too but what's the connection?

The perfect band to end the festival. Over the moon.

New album arrived on Friday and it's quality. Going to see them in Manchester in just under 2 weeks and hoping they are playing at Glastonbury. I've really liked them for a couple of years but the new stuff is another level up.

This was All Points East a couple of years back. Just amazing.

A National concert is anything but a doze so if you are thinking this way already i'd suggest it's not for you.

I really hope so. My favourite band for last 15 years and obsessed with them. Sunday headline slot would be the perfect end to the festival for me.

Is The National a definite thing for Glasto or just speculation?

They've played it at every gig I've been to recently and it comes across well. You are right though. Sitting down was a 90s phase.

I've watched James on 4 occasions in recent years and they've been outstanding every single time. They play a good mix of old and new and the new stuff is very good. They really know how to perform and will put on an awesome show. Can't wait. This is the setlist from Liverpool last year.

We got tickets!

Just received this email from Gigsandtours: Hello Cherry Tree member,As one of the initial members to purchase tickets in the Cherry Tree pre-sale, you will receive early access to the venue on Thurs 4 July 2024.Please bring a printout of this message or be prepared to show this email on your phone, as well as your ID and tickets purchased in the initial transaction so we can get you into the venue as quickly as possible. Do you reckon it's worth going in early as I don't normally like to get in that early but this seems intriguing and don't want to miss out on something.

They are doing a full Smiths set on the Friday. Rick's Saturday slot is just Rick.

I didn't see the previous gig with Blossoms but I believe it was very very good.

Nobody knows. Sun seems to think they are but running out of places for them to turn up unless Arctics pull out.

Blossoms and Rick Astley on the Friday at Woodsies, I have no idea about Hozier though.

Yeah that could be a possibility. I hope so.

I can 💯 say Hozier will not walk out at Woodsies in Fri.

Blossoms and Rick is the Friday.

It is 💯 them.

💯 full Smiths set

I had a moment too in 2019 on the Saturday after being out in the heat most of the afternoon, about an hour before Jade Bird came on. Was just exhausted and I'm a heat lover. It was very tough but eventually found some shade and plenty of water and got back on track. If I struggled though I can imagine some people really struggled. It was glorious sunshine.

Cool, I'm getting mixed up with the 2 nights they did the Smiths tribute.
