Pet Shop Boys

Really happy at this, hopefully they'll get Lady GaGa out for a duet.

Sod this ''best British band of the last 30 years'' nonsense. I sincerely believe they are the best British band of all time, along with New Order and The KLF of course.

I was there too in 2006, great set. Love them, Neil is an amazing song writer and singer.

Almost broke my no-posting-while-at-work rule when I saw this TBC today. Legends that I'm yet to see live.

[Wanderlei]

They're an absolute disgrace to music, i'll be nowhere near

Wit, style, panache, politics, heartbreaking melancholy, amazing tunes. Basically they're The Smiths it's ok to like (and dance to, natch).

Live, Tennant's voice is not very strong but when did technical ability come into making great pop music?

And as for the tedious argument about how much of the music is on DAT and how much is played live - who f**king cares? Real music fans, I guess. *shrugs*

As long as it sounds great I couldn't give a toss who wrote it or whether it's being played live or not.

Nice to see them being described as 'aging queens' in this thread though. Really classy insult, that.

[Mardy]

A bit harsh...but i won't be anywhere near either. I'm surprised so many people here like them, tbh. Glasto should be putting their cash to better use than this tripe.

[LittlemissC]

I love PSB so i'm delighted they will play - they'll bring a few guests too so will be well worth a watch.

[Wanderlei]

They should be putting their cash to better use than booking a popular, successful band that loads of people like? Yeah, you're right, what fools the organisers are. It's almost like they don't know what they're doing? Perhaps this is the first time they've done anything like organising a festival.

pmsl at Ageing Queens

I am gay and 42 - does that me an Ageing Queen ????

[Mardy]

Yeah, but there's getting good bands in and then there's pandering. I don't think i want to spend 3 days around people who love the Pet Shop Boys. Call me prejudice but i have a feeling i won't like that sort of person lol.

[Guest musiclove123]

now down as TBC on the Pyramid on the sunday!

YIPPEE!!!!

i know they were mentioned in the other thread, but I certainly think they need their own thread!!!

What slot would they play?

[Wanderlei]

What type of people are they then? Gay people? People who like 80s synth based pop?

[cejx]

The type of person with no sophistication. I imagine a Pet Shop Boys Fan would be happy listening to club music and all that other crap with repetitive THUD THUD THUD sounds and prescious little else. The type of person who likes lyrics with no meanings like Robbie Williams' stuff. The type of person who orders a WKD drink at a bar. The kind of person who actually finds fart jokes funny.

And i think the sweeping generalisation that gays like the Pet Shop Boys is very homophobic.

Wait isnt this a repeat thread, I know its the original PSB thread, but a later thread kind of took over making that the primary thread, yet no one has flamed or trolled this therad for being a secondary PSB thread, god I'm so confused now as to repeat threadery, someone help me with the forum thread etiquette
