God no, please don't let this happen. One of the biggest disappointments live, ever! He is an awesome guitarist and I love his music but, he is as dull as dish water live. Saw him on the Pyramid stage a couple of years back (2007 I think!) and I was bored shitless!

I'd be pretty certain he WILL do Glasto next year :P

I recently read elsewhere that he has announced dates for June next year.

Correct. I enjoyed seeing The Jam though. The first time I saw them was at the Red Lion in Hammersmith. I'd gone to see Johnny Thunders Heartbreakers, who didn't show up, so there was this other, new band, The Jam. His support for the monarchy and the conservatives wasn't particularly endearing... I know he went on the Red Wedge tour supporting Labour, but by then he'd lost any credibility for me. I have no problem with people liking him... (good of me, eh.... :P )

But the whole mod revival was dated from the word go. Originally it was based on current French and Italian fashion... it was 'modern', and grew from the Beatnik movement from the late 50's/early 60's... it was current and relevant

I lived in Brighton when the fights between the mods and rockers were happening on the beach every Bank Holiday... it was stupid then.

The point to Quadrophenia is that it's what you, as an individual, are.

I know...

I totally see how exciting it must have been the first time round, but things move on....

    • Yes sorry for delay in replying! I'll message you when I put it on there. I think it goes live next week 
    • Or-and I don’t care either way-she splits her 3 BST nights over two weekends leaving space for Glastonbury (raised eyebrow)
    • Good catch this. Used on the Main stage on Saturday like a really cheap alternative.   Cracking little day though. A few Belgian acts to start the day (Atomic Orchestra, Kids with Buns, Selah Sue), some UK/IE midsized bands to end the afternoon (Gurriers, Wunderhorse, Wet Leg) and then an evening of Deftones, Florence and Underworld.   Can’t wait to be there and (at least try to) make the most of it.
    • I would be surprised if they don't, given 2022 was the twentieth I imagine next year is going to be pushed as the 25th anniversary so having the most local big name artist possible headline seems natural. Maybe SFA are being saved for then too?
    • I’d be incredibly surprised if she was in the headline conversation at all. At best I could say a high Pyramid slot but I reckon maybe Other headliner against a rock act like Fender or even Other sub (where I have her in my predictions). I’d say Gracie Abrams is pulling similar if not better numbers to Tate and she was third down on the Other last year.
