Hot Chip are one of the true wonders of creation. Historically important across the aeons of time.

Florence is just shit, awful, ineffectual, thoroughly untuneful and uninteresting, unworthy of any attention, a sideshow for floundering idiots.

Hot Chip are fantastic. The first band since the Mondays to create something that is totally individual and original. Plus they manage to wrap it all up in really fun pop songs. After New Order and Depeche Mode, Hot Chip are the band I would most like to see at Glasto.

For my sins I do like the 2nd Florence album.

I dunno if these sort of sweeping generalisations do anything much bar give Hot Chip's detractors something to giggle over.

I will rephrase it then. Hot Chip are the 1st band that I have heard since the Mondays that sound totally original and individual.

holy crap this hyperbole about hot chip! They were fun before the flaming lips the other year but that's about it.

The flaming lips absolutely blew them away too, as expected.

To be fair though The Flaming Lips have been going a lot longer than Hot Chip and have a far more extensive back catalogue to call on.Plus they had longer on stage to showcase it and people would have been a lot more smashed by the the time Flaming Lips came on.

that extra hours drinking made all the difference!

But I dont wanna trash hot chip, I really enjoyed them and hope they play again.

    • Maybe you need a groovy mayor who can get you the money.   Anyway, looks like mayors going to get a whole load of fiscal devolution and greater powers...so best everyone gets one, a decent one, and get a load of Madchesterism.

    • Another great weekend with family and friends.  We spend most of our time between Obelisk, and second stage due to having young children.  Overpass, Florence Road, Nathan Evans, David Byrne and Alex James were the highlights for me.  Quite enjoyed a dance to Gok Wan on the Saturday too.   Certainly feeling the Latitude blues this week and looking forward to next year.   Also looking forward to all the predictions for next year in the 2027 chat.   Hope everyone had a great festival.    
    • How much is Burnham's success down to Manchester getting a shitton of investment for public transport infrastructure?   There's no doubt he did the work, but the money dumped into Manchester for him to achieve that was huge - the most of any infrastructure project outside London ever. Did that need a mayor, or just the money?
