  1. They were shite the last time - we left when Noel introduced "Little By Little" as his best song. Went over to Chems. I get the pentup demand, but Oasis been pisspoor since 1997.
  2. My Mrs got our tickets, first time she's got us sorted. A round number of 6 coming from Dublin. Total fluke - she's never got to the ticket screen in over 20 years of going to the festival. Another key group missed out. Never fun and sours the experience somewhat.
  3. Yes I've similar thoughts. Some of the finest didn't make it.

    At Glasto? Negative.
  5. 2009 my fave too but 2005 massively underrated. I kept being surprised throughout the weekend. Performers had to dig deep - and by and large they did!
  6. **Well** jealous of Chas 'N Dave mate. The video of ANPY gets mucho replays.

    How long before Coldplay headline more than one night at the G?
  8. The Scream in '05 was unreal. Could swap that in for the Rutles if forced. But the Rutles>Paul in '04 was just perfect. Good to hear Bright Eyes was off his rocker. Everyone was in '05. Hugely underrated year. 😄
  9. Be surprised if that doesnt turn into two Dublin shows.
  10. 1. Macca 04 2. Blur 09 3. Stones 4. Stevie 5. Radiohead 17 6. QOTSA 11 7. Patti Smith 15 8. Neil 9. Fogerty 07 10. The Rutles 11. Primal Scream 05
  11. Going by that people seemed supportive.

    The field has two examples of config change in 25+ years. It will be fine, the person that needs to tone it down is you.

    Is that not a question of the festival's scheduling/curation? The biggest heritage shows arent for everyone - but thats not necessarily a bad thing guv. When Diana Ross was on I watched Nubya Garcia to a crowd of ~1500. If anything the atmosphere was better as the people there really wanted to be there. The Pyramid acts like a twatmagnet in that respect.

    Once the BBC became involved things changed where headliner performances are now career/genre defining events rather than mere festival "turns". The cultural weight carried by these specific shows differs hugely from other tour dates or festival appearances. I'm all for this, have to say. Bowie's 2000 show, Blur's 2009 show, the Stones in '13 (to name but three) have and will live on into the future as crucial artifacts of an artist's career. All for this.

    The current version of "Live To Tell" is a standout. A paean to heroes lost to HIV.

    Righto so Spotify data analysts won't be at Madonna now confirmed. This is statistical win for all of us.

    Madonna is the 5th or 6th biggest selling artist of all time. She got bored with global cultural dominance before Swift's career got out of 1st gear.
