He'll be high up, unfortunately. He seems to have full backing from all the festival people, I don't know if they know he's manufactured shite or just don't care. He's become a draw despite being dull as fuck so I've hedge my bets it's the latter.

I think he's pretty good in comparison to a lot of other pop acts his age. Has the potential to become something really decent in a few years time if he's allowed to be.

Anyway, I think 2nd/3rd Other is the most likely this time around. He's released a new album since last time as well so at least he has something different to peddle. Not that I have intentions of seeing him this time but he was pretty good when I saw him 18 months or so ago in Bristol.

He's subbing two other major festivals so I reckon 2nd/3rd Other might be a bit low. 3rd on Pyramid seems about right, considering we know at least two of the subs.

I like his music, saw him on Bingley's second stage a few years back and he was great, saw him last year on the Pyramid and he wasn't.

He's just not a performer yet, in the same way Alex Turner wasn't in 2007. Looks awkward and uncomfortable in front of a large crowd.

(He doesn't half talk some shit though, he's like a musical Joey Barton)

    • Jesse Malin at Manchester Halle St Peter's last night.   So good to see him back touring after the trauma he has been through, him and the backing band sounded great.   Support was Bason. I quite enjoyed him, but man, that guy cannot sing.
