DeanoL Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 You're clearly a massive James fan. Does this, coupled with the fact almost everyone is telling you your viewpoint is wrong, not make you think bias might be clouding your judgement? James aren't a Glastonbury sub. The only issue with that statement is they have subbed Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanoL Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I apologise for being completely wrong about their current musical output. Although maybe as a reasonably in tune musically mid twenty something who has been to 4 Glastonburys, it probably says a lot that I couldn't name a single James song and didn't know they were still releasing. The charts also don't seem to know they are still releasing, but I've noticed before you're unable to see that at least having some commercial success is reasonably important to securing a Glastonbury spot. How many chart hits have The Who or The Rolling Stones had lately? Paul Weller is subbing Sunday and it's not like he actually plays any Jam tunes anymore. James would play more songs people knew than Weller will... Morrissey subbed in 2011 and doesn't play Smiths stuff either and no kids have heard of him. All that said, I'd actually think they're just short of that spot. They'd probably be third on the bill. So as circumstances go, they'd be a good fit here.

I think Morrissey's got a reasonable number of younger fans too though although that's mostly based on twitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James would play more songs people knew than Weller will...To be fair, if Weller really doesn't play any Jam stuff whatsoever, then that's not a justification for James playing higher, to me it says that Weller should be at least a couple slots lower. That's most of the material people would be interested in hearing from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willutalk Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I really don't care where I want to see the sub! In fact they'll clash with Caribou and some other bands who I'll want to see. It's probably not worth the stress and hassle, trying to see the sub. Who ever they are I want them to have a really great stab at it, and nail it as fine as they can. Flo and the sub have a lot more on their plate than usual. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donshakey Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Pre-super fence crowd though. You never see the place going that mental these days. I was going to say that. I can't see any acts getting a reaction like that this year. Probably my personal taste but line up lacking this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
