The Stevie Set List

[tevaburger]

Glastonbury is a "soft" festival folks. Its full of heart and against all odds it leaves cynicism at the door. If you want a balls out, heavy sexy festival then I suggest youre at the wrong gig.

Stevie can never repeat the Rainbow show that T Blair went to in the 1970s but he'll still knock out 10 or 15 all time classics & a result he'll be fine - perfect for Sunday night. Music that will sooth and nourish the soul - isnt that exactly what the festival is all about?!?! The much vaunted James Brown wasnt "soft" when he played and myself and other notables left halfway through. I thought it was a total mess to be honest.

Other notable "softies" Ive seen that have gone down a storm:

Blur

Elbow

Brian Wilson

Paul McCartney

Let the other fests trip over one another in poxy attempt to be "cool". Glasto is too big to be cool. What it isnt too big to be though is to take itself too seriously. And we have to be v thankful for that.

Unlike you to be so negative mate btw.

[russycarps]

what are the chances of him playing "I Dont Know Why"?

WELL???

[ghandi]

What no "Another Star"?

[Wooderson]

but i don't think my post was overly negative. I still am counting on it being a good set. i am just being cautious that it might be a bit generic. by 'soft' i was referring to the Nal's terminology and what i thought he meant by that. I didn't mean "soft" as in the genre of the act, but by the actual show said act will put on. Perhaps 'safe' is a better word as to what i'm worried about. Why was Rod Stewart so bad in 2002? it was how he played the tunes, how he came across. You could argue that he could have done it properly as he has a catalog, and he could have had a good set. but he played as if the audience were a bunch of grannies.

Grow a pair for a start.

[ampersand]

Sorry, must not say anything but positive things about everything at Glasto!

[Wooderson]

Useless stuff out of you chief to be fair.

[Langdale Wolf]

VERY excited about Stevie.

Though I hear he never plays Misstra Know It All which would be a shame (I love that track), but as long as we get Sir Duke and I Wish I'll be happy.

[Wooderson]

going to be a real highlight

said it before, will say it again. has the potential to be one of the very best the big G has seen graced the pyramid

[Guest blackcockerel]

Can't wait for this, but I really hope he's stopped doing that annoying thing he did on his last DVD where all the slushy songs went on too long and the funk stuff was shortened.
