QOTSA Vs. M&S


Guest YumYum

Recommended Posts

i think i'm going to give QOTSA another chance.... they were okay in Leeds in '08 crowd went wild when they opened with "No One Knows", one of the roughest crowds i've seen for a mainstage band, however it did get a bit boring towards the end. heres to hoping that they'll be better this year. plus i want a good spot for GnR.

I'm really struggling withthis decision! Not a huge fan of Queens, but would quite like to see them going on their live reputation (excluding 2008 where by all accounts they were pretty dull). My friends are all going to see Mumford so I could just tag along with them, no doubt enjoy the company even if I'm not that keen on the music! I'm not usually too fussed about goin to see the bands I like myself, but I'll be seeing Alkaline Trio on my Todd straight after so not keen on wandering about myself for the last 2 hours!

I suppose my question is, will queens be worth the loneliness? Haha

QOTSA problem at Leeds a few years back was that they had been on a 24 hour session before hitting the stage, Josh Homme does not like Axl Rose and will be pulling out all the stops to put out a great performance.

As for Mumford and Sons, I saw the last two songs at Glastonbury as I waited for thousands of people to leave the tent before the Black Keys came on - they sounded really really boring to me (the new fad seems to be if you play your instruments very hard but very badly then it is really good music?) and I would rather go shopping in M & S on a Saturday afternoon and I hate shopping.

    • Used had one of the biggest crowds in the Wave last year. Not really my thing but enjoyed it and the crowd were bang up for it. Might be too much of a step up on the Main though. 
    • Thing is it depends on what the issues are - building a bigger stage would likely bring the Pyramid up to the relatively standard 20x20 space for "on stage" production which does make it easier for touring setups. But if for example she wants big / complex extensions going out in the field (such as she had in Rio) that would remain just as awkward to achieve without massively disrupting the rest of the day or potentially even weekend.
    • A month or so before any ballot a group of up to six is registered and a lead booker named.  That gives see tickets time to check if any individual’s registration, post code  and details appears more than once on different groups and removed then on ticket allocation day tickets the groups are just randomly balloted.  It’s felt like a ballot in the last few years, just sitting staring at the dreaded two lines, glancing nervously at the clock as time passes. Maybe the f5 refresh gave you the sense that you were actually doing something 😊  
    • or can we just have Metallica back please 😄
    • Feel Stevie Wonder should be in the conversation as a random Michael Eavis headliner ala Neil Young last year.... If we did get a M.E pick for one of the headliner slots, who else would be in the mix do we think? Cher? Rolling Stones? Nicks/Fleetwood?
