That Syrian show was so memorable. The ultimate hangover.

Think the backlash from subsequent year's Gorillaz gig might also be a factor here.

Might be a while before those paths logically cross once more. Get on the blower Emily, oi!

A real scamp.

Are Blur in play for the G so? If not why not.

Blur continuing to tour is fascinating.

Sick people. Brexit at work again.

Apparently headlining Electric Picnic here in Aug. I'd never heard of the kid, honest.

HA! Love it.

Nicely summarised.

Were you at the show in Dublin mate?

They could make things interesting with a night of guests and covers. They've a talent for this, I reckon.

Was 2/3 of the way back up on the hill. Was huge. 100k ish so just below the Elton/Stones level. Similar numbers to Kylie or Lionel or Stevie.

Dozen classics he didn't play last time. I Believe As Part Time Lover Love Having You Around Boogie On Reggae Woman You Haven't Done Nothing Overjoyed My Cherie Amour I Wish You Are The Sunshine of My Life Lately Ebony & Ivory

" In the second half, Stevie indulges in interminable solo jams on the talkbox and harpejji, and takes nearly half an hour out of the set to give each one of his six backing singers a solo turn. Wonderful talents though they are, it’s not what anyone came to hear. Most bizarre of all is the 20+ minute DJ set halfway through, where we’re asked to clap and sing along to classic songs from Michael Jackson, Prince, Amy Winehouse and David Bowie, while Stevie and his band remain onstage waiting to resume playing. A proper interval would have been a lot less confusing." I left early, Cally.

2010 one of finest shows in fest's history. If 2024 is billed anything like the "song party" from late 2019 it will, however, be grim. He hasn't really put on any tour/shows of note since those "gigs".

Jesus H.

Friday headliner at Glasters a distinctly lazy affair from WFHQ. 2xOasis, 3xArctics etc. More Coldplay is a snoozer.

Youve met my Mrs right, Cally? Goes feral at the thought of this pish.

Not sure if it was Gizz at that point...

Got caught in 2005 in the lowest part of the Mid field (down by Mandela Bar) with a loada heads singing "i will try to fix you". Not for me Clive.

Both of those are really precarious bookings imo.

Tent filled out when they finished with "Chaise Longue"... 😄

I think the thread title is looking for more than just a crowd's reaction to 4 lads on stage bantz and vol from the PA.
