Avoid watching any bands live at Glastonbury by taping your mobile phone over your eyes and recording everything to watch later. You can also help out others who don't really want to watch any bands live either by waving your mobile phone about in front of their faces too.

Bill Hicks who tragically died of cancer aged 32..........

I love seeing smokers try and justify why they do something that has absolutely no benefits to them whatsoever but many, many downsides.
-
I've never heard of anything like that in all the years I've been going to festivals.
-
5 days of pure hedonism with your best mates.
-
Yeah why would a smoker want to be like a non smoker. Less chance of several cancers and numerous illnesses; healthier skin, hair, teeth and nails; less smell; save money; no addiction etc etc
Only an idiot would want to stop and be like that

Last year, sitting by our tents on the Wednesday evening a bloke comes walking round selling magic mushrooms and the following conversation ensued:
Mushy man: Magic Mushrooms! Magic Mushrooms!
Me: Yeah, over here mate. What kind are they?
Mushy man: Magic ones!
Me: Yeah, I know that mate, but what kind are they - Mexicans, Liberty Caps, Truffles?
Mushy Man: I don't know, I'm from Wales!
Still makes me laugh now.

I'm really looking forward to seeing them again. I wasn't that big a fan when they came out (I thought the lead singer sounded a bit like the fella from Fine Young Cannibals and they were a bit 80s) but I saw them at Glasto in 2007 and thought they were excellent so have really got into them now. I love the way they keep evolving their sound, adding new instruments instead of just churning out guitar based indie like so many of their utterly dull contemporaries (practically everyone that played the Other Stage last year) and are pushing the boundaries a bit, just like Radiohead do.
-
and it's for someone who doesnt know nick cave at all. Which 2 songs should I add??
at the moment I;m going for Stagger Lee and Into My Arms. But I dunno....it's too tough to choose 2 songs. They have to be ones that there is a chance of him playing too.
-
Along with the Leeds & Reading announcement on Radio 1 Zane said Glastonbury is the 'mother festival' that everybody wants to protect and Leeds & Reading are the 'daddy'.
Discuss.....

I'd love to see SFA at Glasto. In a recent interview they were saying their new album is too big to be played indoors, so Glasto would be a great place for them to play it. Fingers crossed.

I become a southerner on my birthday at Glastonbury (27th) after having been dawn sarf longer than I was originally oop north, so after that I'll be sporting a Pearly King jacket for the rest of the festival and doing a cockernee knees up whenever appropriate, and whenever it's innappropriate too probably.
-
They played in either 2000 or 2002, and it was indeed a car crash, but a quite enjoyable car crash. I seem to recall they stormed off stage without finishing their set.
-
fair points mate all.
i guess it was just a great time to be in, or am i just rose tinting it there
-
could they genuinly have reached those audiences and had that effect without the breakthrough that the roses/scream broke open. or would they simply be obscure little dance albums listend to by people in fields out of the back of car rigs tho
BTW im positing a theory here
-
im not dicounting them as great albums. but IMO a seminal album has to change the face of music.
apart from Blue Lines i dont see anything in there that a) hadnt to certain extent been done before &
changed the face of the scene. -
Blue Lines?
Nevermind?
Entroducing?
Exit Planet Dust?
Music for the Jilted Generation?
Out of Time?
Grace?
Slim Shady LP?

I really don't mean to shit over everybody's parade on my first post, but here's an interview with Ian Brown from like earlier this month:
http://www.clashmusic.com/feature/ian-brow...uncut-interview
Here's the bits I'm interested in:
"So aside from any random, fantastical, Led Zeppelin one offs do you…
I’d need to be down to my last chicken dinner, seriously. Every single act that’s reformed has done it for the money, I don’t think there’s anyone who’s done it for expression, artistic expression, or this burning desire to create more music or… I think it’s about money. I could always ring Mani and say: “Let’s get the band back together.” But if I said let’s do it and give the money to kids’ charities, would he still want to do it? I don’t think they would.
"So, could you see yourself sending John a packet of Maltesers in the future?
I haven’t spoken to him since the phone call when he left the band in ‘96."
He mentions on it he wouldn't wanna do the reunion & he hasn't spoken to John for 13 years. That's pretty conclusion to me.
-
While I wouldn't necessarily fight to the death for these bands - it is just music afterall, I'd defend the following:
Aphex Twin
Radiohead
FSOL
The Orb
NIN
Squarepusher
For me, they've not a put a foot wrong musically throughout their entire careers while striving for orginality with each release.
-
The Cribs.
They're not a fad, not an NME hype band and not landfill indie.
Alot of these other bands don't need defending because everyone's pretty much agreed they're legends.

2manyDJs were excellent - who else would drop Roots Bloody Roots by Sepulchura into a dance set? The tent was rammed though, and while you could still hear outside the tent where there was space to dance, you could also hear the bass from the other tents. I think the Dance Village could do with perhaps losing one stage/tent and spacing everything out a bit more to stop the sound bleeding all over each other.
