Weezer

[RichieSpenno]

If so, where?

I'd love to see them.

I've just d/l their album and was thinking the exact same thing. There was a lot of speculation about them playing Reading and Leeds this year but nothing came of it. I'd really like to see them live at some point

[RichieSpenno]

For some reason I could imagine them John Peel Headliners Friday? Or high up on Other.

I would LOVE it if weezer played, one of the few bands that iv always wanted to see but havent had the oppertunity to yet

Sat down with good friends, Burrow Hill cider in the hand, and as Weezer rip into "Say it ain't so", the sun breaks through a cloud into a beautiful day

Yes please!

They might look a bit out of place, not that I'd complain!

[Vieuphoria]

would love to see them there, but more likely for R+L i reckon.

I'm starting to think from some of the posts appearing here that the pop-kids have moved the normal Reading crowd on from Reading to Glastonbury. Many of the posts look like people want Glastonbury to be Reading, and frankly, that would spoil Glastonbury.

Sadly one of the most boring live acts this side of Interpol.

I could see standing stone still because youre playing technically-complex stuff, but their songs tend to have fewer chords than they have band members.

Been let down every time.

You can do your own Interpol concert in your living room if you have 4 well-dressed mannequins and an Interpol record

Something Noel Gallagher/Jay-Zish about that statement...

- I guess you're right.

That's not quite what I meant tho. Where I'm coming from is that most of the suggestions people are making just now are very much the sorts of acts you'd definitely expect to see at Reading (or even Download - Glastonbury traditionally doesn't have much rock & metal, and there's been lots of posts for metal too).

It's not that I'm thinking any particular band isn't entitled to play at Glastonbury, it's the proportion of Reading-type acts that are being suggested (and all very obvious ones too - c'mon, at least be a little more imaginative ).

The beauty to me of Glastonbury is its diversity, and if the current suggestions being made on these forums was followed thru on on a proportional basis, it would lose that in a big way and would be musically far nearer to Reading than the Glastonbury we're used to.

So I'd like to think I'm not being Noel-styleeee narrow minded. But do feel free to disagree.

Pretty sure Weezer played in 95 the first year I was there. I vaguely remember them playing mid afternoon on the Other Stage (or was it the NME stage back then?). I'm sure they clashed with Jamiroquai and there was only a smattering of people there (I'm not sure why I ws there to be honest).

Everyone looked bored to tears by them until they played 'Buddy Holly' and then everyone suddenly woke up.
