I can not abide Gaga everything about her is fake, she rips off Madonna (amongst others) & claims to be the height of originality. Not to mention her fans are worse than Radiohead fans. Nah I'd much prefer Rihanna, she may be 'manufactured' but at least she's not falsely claiming otherwise all the time.

On the topic of female pop singers though, I think Madonna would kill it given the chance.

Just spoke to Rihannas bodyguard who says the camp have no idea where these rumours are coming from about Glasto - of course he could be bullshitting but it seems we can consign this Riri rumour to the dustbin lol

Rihanna had 39 different writers on her latest album, no contribution from herself in ANY of the songs (aside from singing lyrics written by somebody else of course). Her image is the only reason she is where she is for me, basically an advertising tool too - didn't she give away phones at one of her gigs last year?

I'd rather see Mumford & Sons, who have actually written some music in their musical career! Wouldn't go and see them, but at least they've worked hard to get where they are to be fair to them. Also have a history at Glastonbury.

Nothing against her type of pop music by the way (however awful half of it is), just against her having a massive team behind her success while she takes most of the credit.

The "hot ticket package" for her gigs cost 150 quid. You get the ticket, a tour programme and a tour laminate. Thats it. :lol:

She really is the worst person. Nothing redeeming about her whatsoever. She (and the team of business people who pull the strings as Simon said) are all low points in the evolution of us all as a species. I actually feel embarrassed for myself sharing similar DNA with this woman.

In response to getoffmylawn yeah, that's why I said he may be shitting me, I doubt its a valid rumour tbh.

I would love to see Mumfords again (saw em support Arcade Fire at Hyde but the sound was atrocious) but I think its a year too soon for them to headline.

    • As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.
    • I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.    
    • Similar feelings to a few others on here. Not my personal favourite edition but a long way from giving up on it. Felt overcrowded at times and there are just too many people there that don't seem to like music that much! Hardly went to main stages which was the plan. Highlights Ralphie Choo, rusowsky, Gorillaz, Geese, Gelli Haha, The Sophs, PinkPantheress, Dijon. Accommodation booked for next year. Thanks for your company and comments over the past year.
