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)

    • Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
