The "Ryan Adams is awesome and should play Glasto" thread

[Superscally]

I reckon Foos clash. Gash.

[hogboy]

I'm hoping he's a Saturday night headliner, anywhere will do, would slot in nicely for me after Kloot who have self confirmed their Avalon set for 20:00.

[Superscally]

Oooo where was that Kloot confirm? That's awesome timing :-)

[hogboy]

They created an event on their Facebook page.

[Superscally]

Ah, that won't mean anything. They've created loads of events that start at 1800 including festivals. It's a random time.

[Gnomicide]

He's broken a rib but has said he'll keep touring...

FFS!!!! Ryan Adams/The Who , this was the clash I feared the most! How did it happen?

[ericlered]

I wasn't sure who to see on Sunday night....

Who.... Chems.... Idlewild....

Now it's sorted, Ryan Adams!

and no Acoustic stage set! Gutted!

[jamiemaher]

Very pleased to see him close the festival (for me at least). I was gutted when he pulled out of his Sunday headline spot on the JPT in 2005, so it's a nice booking. 2005 was the last time I went with my best friend to Glasto (I've been a few times since but that was his one and only time), so it's a nice coincidence. The 2005 booking cancellation was especially gutting as I'd been at a roundtable discussion with Emily Eavis that year and she'd asked who we would like to see play and I'd mentioned Ryan Adams.

[Wooderson]

Sunday evening/night last year was dire. This year the best in a decade.

[Gnomicide]

First Sunday headliner I've wanted to see since 2010.

[Little Andy]

Does Ryan Adams usually play much stuff from Love Is Hell or Gold? They are the only two albums I own off him. I like a few songs from Love Is Hell, but less from Gold.

[vans]

I think his setlists vary a lot. He didn't play much from those 2 in Shephards Bush earlier in the year. Here is a recent setlist from Sasquatch Festival which features more of his better known tracks than usual I would say...

I would love it if he plays ....Stars go Blue.

Possibly the best song to show off how badly I can sing. I wouldn't sing along in public.

Not knowing much about RA - will he do an acoustic or electric set at the park do you think? Or a mixture?

He'll be with his band, i imagine. The shining. But he does do Winding Wheel Solo acoustic in his sets at the moment. I was surprised he didnt another set on the acoustic stage like jake bugg.

Nice one for posting that. He sounds ace! "Let It Ride" is such a CHOON.

[Wooderson]

If it's a mild and warm night I'll prolly be up at this.

Cheers guys, I'll check out those vids later - I want to go see Goat and trying to work out whether to stay for RA or try and catch last half of the Who or Chems

[Wooderson]

I'll be at goat so currently deciding whether to leg it after to catch an hour of chemics or who or stay up there and watch him. Considering I don't really know that much of his stuff.

I've yet to see him play aswell.

This is the setlist from most recent half-dozen shows. Gorgeous stuff. On a balmy evening this is the perfect end to the weekend for me.

[When Jokers Attack]

Another one for Goat so just thinking of staying up at The Park for him. 

[Gnomicide]

Balmy, tropical or delluge, I'll be there. Been listening to him loads lately while kicking myself for not making more of an effort in the past.

Me too gaffer.

How fucking triumphant will this sound?
