Friday opener?

[sheffieldlady]

The Hives and Blondie have move been brilliant - sadly, I got the end of Kaisers last year and felt unimpressed. Missed Beady Eye though, much to my delight! The Hives are brilliant. When I went to Download, I opted to watch The Hives over Iron Maiden. No regrets. Bloody brilliant.

It's a constant source of irritation that The Hives set wasn't filmed for TV coverage. Top 5 Festival performance for me

In my Top 5 for that Glastonbury in 2013 too! I spent the rest of the day with so much energy just from watching them!

Blondie were rubbish last year, but it was still good fun right before my shift started.

The Hives were amazing though, as were those tight pants.

Hives were the first band I ever saw at Glastonbury (2013 being my first) and they were mind blowing then. Seen them since at Brixton, and the energy they get in their show is like nothing else I've ever seen.

I tweeted them and asked if they were doing Glasto this year, which they favourited, which may or may not mean they're coming...

***This is an actual update (sort of)***

Me to Time Burgess - Are you the other stage opening act at Glasto?

Tim Burgess to Me - 'TBC ;)'

I will never wash my screen again

Do I win a biscuit?

Really happy that The Charlatans are the 'secret' opening act on Friday morning. I've been meaning to see them for years but just never got round to it. I can see why some people might be a bit miffed but for a fair number of us that were around in the early 90's, The Charlatans were a pretty big deal. Personally, I can't wait!
