Well every gig he has done since he returned in 2008 has had no support act and has gone on for around 3 hours. I knew because I had followed the tour religiously!

3 hours is probably not giving him enough credit.

Glad to see you and Mardy have also broken the bank for Leonard. I managed to catch him at Glastonbury, Gent, Brighton, Moscow, New York and the O2 during the various tours. Absolutely brilliant. Every time. Even better towards the end with Alex Bublitchi arriving on violins.

Agreed, alex was sensational.

Have you got the live in Dublin album? There's something not quite right about it but I can't put my finger exactly on what it is. I prefer the London one, despite it having dino. Think it's Leonard's chat between songs

I had a quick look/listen to the live recordings, but honestly, I can't see the point, I'd rather stick with my memories, as impressionistic and unreliable as they may be.

Haven't read the whole thread, but after reading that Foals may be a long shot - what do people think of Hot Chip getting a bump up onto Pyramid headliners??? Surely have a greater set of hits than Foals and new album out just in time...??

Am I completely dreaming or not...? They were sensational in 2010 as Other Stage sub...

What's your predicted 3 for the Pyramid Couchy?

What I want would be Taylor Swift & Daft Punk.

What I reckon will be neither of them. I really don't know this year as no rumours or suggestions have lead me to think one band/person over another.

But Kanye West & Taylor Swift would cause a media shit storm & an effing load of media attention for Glastonbury (because of their previous history, TS says she's been hanging out with KW too on Nick Grimshaw/Greg James show). Not fussed about Flo, she can do it but I wouldn't go, I didn't at Bestival & saw SubFocus instead, unless there is nowt else on.

Let's all go to the pub or a field & have a cider.

I expect Charlie XCX to be there.

Foo fighters/Outkast

Stone Roses/Libs

Kanye/T.Swift

Weird sub for Foos, but thoughts on this?

Outkast have basically broken up and Andre has said he pretty much hated the comeback tour and only did it for the money. almost zero chance they'll be at Glastonbury, let alone subbing anyone.

I'm pretty much in agreement...but not sure how I feel about it.

I'd be 'meh'.

I'd fucking LOVE to see Daft Punk again.

I got bored reading about everyone's opinions on Foals!! Just wanted to flip things to focus on how awesome Hot Chip are live!

It's a shame they've missed their chance at getting a prime Pyramid slot - they're definitely good enough live... Surely they're no more a long shot than Foals though...? (not that I have anything against Foals)

Am I the only person on here who doesn't like Daft Punk?

They're alright. I'm not that fussed about them, and probably couldn't hack a two hour set by them. But I'm not against them.

No. Dull as dishwater, I don't understand how anyone can listen to there stuff for 5 minutes without getting bored, imagine 90 minutes of it?. Can't understand why otherwise rational people hold them in such high esteem. It's probably Jean Michelle Jarre under one of those masks.

    • Hmm, weird- Rush are playing the Co-Op live on the 12th and the 14th, and Megadeth are the meat in that sandwich - so they have to roll everything in, roll it out again, only to roll it back in and then out - here's hoping for a prog hokey-cokey with all manner of bizarre time signatures and drum solos! 
    • Depends what you mean by seeing 'more stuff' about it.    I definitely don't trust the original Sun article.

    • Chill. There is no chance Sziget will be cancelled by the government. Even the prime minister held a press conference today, where he confirmed this.   Magyar said they do not want to shut down the country or prevent events from taking place. He gave the example that vetoing an event would be like completely cutting off a large consumer’s electricity supply for the organizers. However, just as they have not taken such a measure against large consumers, they have not taken steps to cancel events either. (Magyar did not name a specific event, but he was presumably referring specifically to the Sziget Festival.) At the same time, Péter Magyar stressed that if disruptions occur in the system or the heatwave persists, it could become necessary to postpone or reschedule events (example: some Hungarian football games will probably be held in daylight, moved to a few hours earlier, to save energy), although he believes there is currently little chance of that happening. This is particularly true for events that rely entirely, or largely, on their own energy sources.
    • If the campervan field residents aren’t allowed to cut through orchid they’ve got a brutal walk on their hands.   otherwise not too many surprises
