not that it matters at all. i mean... they're headlining. we all know that. but always nice to have a confirmation, even if it is a stinker

Well it could be worse than coldplay, but id rather full confirmation of any headliner at this point in time

On what planet is Paul McCartney worse than Coldplay?

I don't find him very entertaining maybe that's my young mind but id get more entertainment from coldplay. And I'm not coldplay's biggest fan either. But that's my personal opinion and alot obviously won't agree with me either.

Well i guess you're not much older then since I'm 23, but paul isn't my cup of tea thats for sure. He isn't the worst on my list but hes one that id rather listen to coldplay over.Also I'm still curious on what went on with the radio thingy? did anyone manage to listen to it again?

Hooray, some naysayers about McCartney!  When he played in 2004, I found myself walking off, until he played another Beatles tune, when I walked back towards the stage, only to be repelled when he played "Jet" or some other such shit.

And don't get me started on the actual performances - hearing the Penny Lane trumpet played unconvincingly on a cheap keyboard patch is just cheap and lazy.  He wrote+recorded some great songs, but the man has been coasting since The Beatles split.  I ended up walking off entirely before Hey Jude and I was only a little bit bothered.

I'm 37 and love my Beatles records, but his solo stuff stinks + that performance did not do those recordings justice.

*prepares to be downvoted to oblivion, just like every other time this subject comes up!*

It kinda reminds me of Noel Gallagher, i watched him at rock wercher and his oasis stuff was pretty good but his other stuff also stinked besides the odd 1-2 songs which i expected better of. And i agree with Paul's solo stuff then comparing it to his Beatles stuff.

    • Hi Everyone!   I need your help. I'm trying work out who was playing at The Wishing Well at 3am on the Monday morning at the 2025 festival - this was once the official setlist had ended. The music was down tempo, bass heavy, kept evolving, just mesmerising. Anyone have any ideas? and/or was there as well?
