How very dare you! The 'Bore's' new album is cracking.

Not heard it, but heard it's getting rave reviews. Then again, so did the album with Outlaw Pete the rip-off of a Kiss classic on it, but that's the most dreadful and boring album I've heard in decades.

Anyway got a feeling Florence will be a huge let down at L/R. I don't get her myself.

Me neither.

But I expect it'll be the same as always happens, that those who like her think it's great, while those whose hearing works (:P) run away.

Like it or not she had an absolutely massive crowd at Glasto a couple of years ago, and they were lapping it up. Mind you, when the people who were lapping it up thought 'The Chain' was the "theme tune from the Grand Prix" or worse, "this must be a new song of hers", then it doesn't take much to know the sorts of people who she was impressing. :lol:

Granted that wasn't his best album, not awful though. Abit of a grower. This one however hits you straight away, you should have a dabble.

if it's like all the other Bruce stuff I've heard, it'll only hit me with blandness straight away.

There's few acts so highly over-rated in my eyes. And it's not like I've not given him a go - many times too.

You mean a sub academy band with nothing making them big enough to move up subbing to a arena selling band than will easily headline when they play next? if so, then yes i do, like it or not, it could easily happen. But i'll justify slightly and put QOTSA below Blur for you and Dizzee below Biffy for you.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
