  1. Constant ongoing death match for the Worst Band Playing Glastonbury 2024. Just when you think it's a done deal a new contender comes along to up the stakes. Acoustic plays Scouting for Girls, Stornoway and an Acoustic Set by Ocean Colour Scene. Coming back stronger, Field of Avalon lays down The Feeling and BC Camplight. Then Shangri-La ups the stakes by deploying a Royal Sampler shouting about hot meals. Other Stage laughs up its sleeve, cos it knows everyone's forgotten they're already holding Idles, Disclosure and The National trumps.
  2. Earache acts completely d@bbed down now?
  3. Noone has a hard on for carrying unnecessary wood into Glastonbury like this guy.
  4. Just over an hour. Edit. Ah. I see. It got swole whilst I was at the gym. It's closer to an 1989 / Midnights hybrid. Don't hear much Folklore on there at all.
  5. It's probably a bit too long and isn't a big left turn after Midnights, but the quality of the tunes is sky high. Wouldn't want to be Matt Healy this morning. But agree that next time should definitely be a new formula.
  6. It was. I was in - but unable to buy anything - long before the sold out page was up.
  7. Yup. Prefer the current process with See.
  8. Not too late to contact Joe Rush and request a giant set of cast iron norks to top El Pointo.
  9. As Incident says, it's there for free.
  10. Reputation laundering. Getting back in people's good graces. On any given year you can find wrong 'uns on the bill.
  11. I dunno. If they offer up a secret set on a smaller stage playing Funeral would the festival really turn it down? Getting a freebie from a former headliner - albeit with a tarnished rep - is a way of shoring up a weaker line up.
  12. That is the audience that those stages attract.
  13. I doubt anyone wanted to get into a mud-slinging match over it given its obviously very 'inspired' by Bo Diddley and Muddy Waters, e.g
  14. It's Blockbuster that sounds like The Jean Genie. But then it's not like it's Bowie's riff....
  15. They're so popping up at the G aren't they.
