  1. London Grammar?! They're brilliant. One of my fav Glastonbury moments was their headline set on the John Peel stage. It was magical
  2. Thirded. It really screwed things up I feel - strange decision. Darble was absolutely chocker Thursday night, people camping on top of each other. Yes I know it's a festival - but Ive never seen it like that before tbf.
  3. I thought this trick was dead. My first ever Glastonbury I used the same trick but I thought they had stopped it somehow.
  4. Some maybe, but I was one of the ones that did confirm my reg and it still got deleted. Luckily I check last week but many probably didn’t.
  5. I was one of them - luckily I checked last week and re registered. But I confirmed my old reg and it still got deleted
  6. What's the deal with different browsers? I used separate browsers on one connection last year and they were treated differently. (one got through, others busy page).
  7. A lot of ordinary people really don't care about race though, they just want to get on with their lives and treat people equally without being told they're perpetuating racism.
  8. This is the concern for me, I feel like racism should be universally bad. But by the definition given it means we're all racists (most likely). Almost feels like it devalues the horrific nature of genuinely racist people.
  9. You can judge people by both actually. If a comedian tells a joke that happens to offend a member of the audience that does not make them a bad person. Intent is incredibly important. Please sources for the other incidents.
  10. It's not that I find them particularly funny, It's that I don't find them to be something we should be worrying about when it comes to stamping out racism. I agree with you he's not fecking 12 and that's what that podcast sounded like to me. It was a bit embarrassing. If you've got sources for the other 'offensive and distasteful' opinions it would be useful.
  11. What's wrong with trying to do accents? It's quite funny! People are just primed at the moment to try and interpret everything through a 'is it racist' filter. It does nothing to help in tackling actual real racist hatred.
  12. If you listen to it there's not a lot to it - the presenter was more the one saying anything antagonistic with Matty egging him on. I found it really childish and a bit weird. By the book yes it's 'racist' but do you really believe Matty Healy is a racist person? I find that a bit of a stretch to be honest.
  13. Agh, those pesky white saviours causing the government of Malaysia to hate on gay people. Bloody westerners and their morals!
  14. Best video I've seen so far of the incident.
  15. I listened to the podcast, it seemed childish banter rather than racism. Bar is set pretty low these days.
  16. But I thought he was a bigot according to some? Social media is terrible. Good on Matty!
  17. Managed to watch two songs on Iplayer but they sounded awful so had to turn it off. I'm sure it must have been better in reality!

    2024 Headliners

    I’d have to have a listen to the podcast to form an opinion. Clearly the whole ‘white man’ comments aren’t helpful though if it is fighting racism with more racism.

    What’s the bad press?

    2024 Headliners

    I'd be really surprised if Foo Fighters headlined - they only did it 2 festivals ago?! I really think 1975 could be playing next year? It seems odd they haven't just yet. I don't know enough Dua Lipa stuff but she doesn't seem big enough to headline the pyramid? Taylor Swift? Christine and the Queens?
  21. Yeh, that’s definitely it for her on the farm.
  22. Needed to vent. Was the act I was most looking forward to and she’s seemingly got no respect for the crowd.
  23. Not enough water points. Darble a nightmare in morning for queue
  24. She’s an idiot. f**king doing her hair, what a load of bullshit. Picked her over guns and Christine. She can get f**ked.
