Jack White?

Casual Jack White fan here - got a couple of White Stripes albums, his last solo album and a bit of stuff by Raconteurs, Dead Weather etc.

I think that setlist above gives us a fair idea that it will be 'greatest hits'.

Glastonbury will also be his shortest set of the summer by the looks of it, 15 minutes shorter than Governors' Ball and he has a 2h set at Bonnaroo. As much as I respect that its a Jack White gig, I selfishly hope he only plays a few from the solo albums - only seen him with Dead Weather before in 2010 and it would be great to hear Icky Thump, Hardest Button, Steady As She Goes etc. etc.

Does JW play any of his other bands material or just his own stuff?

He'll play a mix of stuff from his 12 albums and other projects. Possibly even a cover. It'll be solo stuff and stripes stuff heavy with 1 or 2 Raconteurs songs and maybe a Dead Weather song. He doesn't use set lists, so plays any song that the band may have rehearsed for the tour, last tour that was around 40 songs. Go on set list fm and search him and look at the gigs he has done so far this year, he tends to have a solid few from the new album and Blunderbuss, 7 Nation army and Dead Leaves are usually played and Top Yourself. Everything else is usually mixed up night to night. Edited by III

Icky Thump got played again and Hardest Button. Follow the link for the rest.

Lazaretto out tomorrow :)

Wow, that is how you do a setlist. The only one single thing I would change is to switch out Steady As She Goes for I Cut Like A Buffalo, other than that it's pretty much perfect.

Nah, switch The Rose with the Broken Neck for Blue Blood Blues.

Upon Googling the track to find out what it is (assumed it was a Lazaretto song), I agree that we could do without it.

If he is going to play a song from the Rome album then he should do Two against One. I love that song. He played it a lot last tour though so maybe that's why he is doing Thr Rose with the Broken Neck.

Is there something I'm missing/failing to do to kick it off?

I got it yesterday. Love it! The hologram took a bit of working out but I found if you shine a torch directly over the spindle you can see it. A little angel. All the other tricks are cool. Unfortunately I can't play at 78 so can't listen to the first hidden track. The second hid send track is creepy though. Love the crows calling on the infinite groove at the end.

    • Muse new album out soon , European tour announcement for Nov and Dec, no Spanish date and north American tour starts in July and in North America for all of July and August. So primavera and Glastonbury 
    • Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.   
    • Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely. 
    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city!
