I fell asleep stood up.

If Kasabian play on the Pyramid and no one is around to hear it, did they even play?

Had never seen massive attack so watched them and really enjoyed it. Can't remember who I watched before without looking at lineup. 

Ellie Goulding, obviously

I watched the wailers. Think I must have had a wander after them. 

The Wailers were a bit dull and the crowd was dead, then Bonobo's sound went iffy, then Disclosure failed to bring the bangers. Not the best night I've ever had at a festival.

It was where you could see Robert plant jack white pixies and mogwai all follow each other. 

So it was you following me that night then? Even better ,you could sneak away from the end of the Pixies to catch most of John Grant before Mogwai. Fantastic night.

Agreed - favourite set of the weekend! And I'm a big Arcade Fire fan.

Jon Hopkins-Mogwai combo on the Sat was great too, considering I didn't know much by either act.

That's weird, because the crowd was great where we were for The Wailers. A real party atmosphere!

Kasabian were so dull.

The 1975 have always been shit, and it's got the worst album title ever, I thought somebody was having a fucking laugh when I walked into Piccadilly Records the other day and it was right there in the good new albums POS. Even if it's the best album ever made by a person I wont listen to it, but I bet it's appalling.

In defense of the 1975... *ducks*

I want to hate everything about the 1975, from their pretentious prick lead singer to their awful album titles... but I can't deny how good songs like 'The sound' (which interestingly he refers to himself as a douche bag in) and 'Chocolate' are.

I saw them early on other one day a couple of years ago for want of something better to do (I think we were having lunch) and they were "alright" live.

People seem surprised by this? They're the Benidorm of music.

Hahahaha, nothing concrete but 99% sure. You'll forgive me for not exactly getting excited.

I've honestly never met any fans quite like Stone Roses fans. I'm never sure if they are just trolling but come on, you can't be saying 99% certain and then not offering a shred of evidence other than 'new music is on the way, that's all I will say'

By the same token, Slade are subbing Coldplay at Glastonbury. 99% certain of it.

Well I know for a fact something is coming in March, and rumours pretty much everywhere suggest a single is coming 4th March (though I've not heard this personally). Still can't see them playing Glasto though.

Not coming to gloat or anything, but watch this space for today

on the other end of the spectrum, i watched them on the Pyramid in 2014 to get a space for Dolly with the worst hangover of my life and they were shite. never have i been so miserable and in pain at a festival

[Wellyboot]

I like The 1975

Anyone know when/if we'll get Roses news?

That wasn't representative though. I don't know what happened that day but of the five times I've seen them that was by a distance the worst. Even worse than their Thursday night slot in Williams Green where they stopped the show to rant at some tit throwing a bottle at Matty.

the journo that tweeted the other day hinting at today for a new release recanted it yesterday didn't he?
either way I don't care - I just want the Roses to put something new out. They've been milking TSR and TSC for far too long now.....

[FloorFiller]

I'm more interested to hear this new Roses material than any other reformation act material, and i'm not even that big of a fan. i just can't imagine what a modern day Roses is gonna sound like. it's gonna be fucking shite

[brettredmayne]

Im still hoping that Newcastle warm up show was true that was mentioned on here

As a huge Roses fan, I am slightly worried. I don't see how it can be anywhere near as good as that first album in all honesty.

They were awful, their album title is awful, their frontman is awful.

[russycarps]

I've never heard of the 1975. Why are they called that? and what sort of music is it?
