Love how everyone is saying they will dodging Adele on Saturday night. I bet 90% of this board will at least go see a song or 2 out of curiosity. I certainly will be even if I wander off after a couple of songs.

i think it's a good thing that she's doing it, but i'll definitely be in the 10%.

I wont be there. I said the same about kanye west and ended up seeing him, but I didnt know anything about him so was prepared to go along and see what the fuss was all about.

However, I know more than enough about adele to know it'll be appalling and that the field will be drenched in piss from all you sensitive types losing control of your bladders when she sings a song about her ex boyfriend fucking her sister. Again and again.

At this moment im firmly in the 10%. Given a choice of Adele and New Order, id edge towards NO. 

 

However, this is glastonbury. There will almost definitely be multiple things on that night that will be more to my tastes.

Song About My Ex Boyfriend Fucking My Sister #14 is my personal favourite

The only reason I'd be at the Pyramid for that is because we camp quite nearby and I might've had a 'tiring and emotional' day, peaked too soon and be sat round the camp fire.

If this is the case, the last thing I need to listen to is Adele.

Saturday will therefore need to be planned to perfection and managed properly.

I won't be there, if she plays I ma planning on heading to the naughty corner and miss the crowds. half f my group would go the other half won't be. I was forced to sit through most of Mary J last year. it was the most horrid I have felt at Glasto. never to be repeated

I would like to say I'll be as far away from the Pyramid as possible, but I'll be at New Order. Which isn't really that far away. But the point remains: even the wild neighing horses of morbid curiosity couldn't drag me to see Adele.

At most other festivals that comment would be true, but there's just too much to experience at Glastonbury to watch a headliner you don't like. I'll be nowhere near the Pyramid stage on Saturday regardless of what else is on at the same time. There's bound to be something more enjoyable than watching an act I don't like.

Would now be an appropriate time for a self confessed metal fan to point out that Slayer are shit?

No?

Ok, carry on.

Having seen Slayer on their most recent tour, and being bored stiff for 98% of it, I am complete agreement with you on this!

    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
    • 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.
