ITS HAPPENING

That logo is hideous! What happened to the nice grey one with the Pyramid and the tree??

You mean the creepy tree of darkness?!

Looks a little like the old TV test screens :P

Who had between ten to and five in the mardy whinges about looking back sweepstake?

hahaha. btw, loved your thing yesterday about my anti-nostalgia thing. Meant to mention it earlier.

You know the truth, every year, me and my mates usually go to see a band we loved in our younger years at Glastonbury. But the sad fact is, they're still wasters, dreamers, fuck-ups and chancers. Always only a smaller stage, usually mid afternoon.

Some recent ones have been:

Band of Holy Joy (about 2pm somewhere in Shangri-La, attendance: 9 people)

Rockingbirds (12.30 the park, attendance: a dozen balding fat men, sobbing for their youth)

Martin Stephensn & The dainties (Acoustic, whole thing was awful and best forgotten)

The woodentops (Avalon, early evening, quite a few people there)

I'm as nostalgic as anyone else, but not for the fucking Charlatans or Pavement. I love bands who still do what they do, despite their obvious lack of success. Yer mortgage payment reformations can go and do one, though. ;)

Just like Caribou's agent's post disappearing swiftly. I wonder if someone at Worthy Farm is tasked with monitoring this thread and having self-confirmations deleted??

Maybe we should start sharing confirmations in chat!

There are a load of self confirmations that have disappeared this year after they have been posted

How many logos they plan on having this year. National express are going with this one

:lol:

Think they want to "modernise" it, but not sure which way to go and know the traditionalists don't see a need for change :P

Pretty much yeah. Beautiful One's, Animal Nitrate and Trash seemed decent enough.

For me, Dog Man Star might be the best album ever made. The first three are the most accessible and have most of the hits, so to speak. I also really like most of Head Music.

Suede - jangly (excellent) britpop

Dog Man Star - soaring bowie-esque soundscapes

Coming Up - slick, commercial (still excellent) new wave type indie.

    • Ann and Nancy Wilson are planning a final world tour for HEART starting next year. They were never at Glastonbury. They should do it. 
    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
