Yes have you never heard of the sunny Sunday afternoons at the Reading main stage, watching Papa Roach with a nice cold cider in hand?

 

Do Reading have a Sunday legends slot and if so are Papa Roach typical of a Reading legend slot? Could Papa Roach do the Glastonbury legend slot? This raises so many questions.

Last Resort would make a banging BBC montage choice.

 

Perfectly suited for when you come back with the Glastonbury blues and you're watching the footage while rummaging around for the sharpest razor blade to carve GlAsTo4LyFe into your radial artery.

Hoping that Alias Kid will be there.

They told the Daily Star Sunday: "There's no rock and roll anymore - no one's out there having fun. That's what we want to bring back - just a band playing good music and having a good time.

"People go on about how hard life is touring. What are they on about? It's the best job ever. You get to go round with your mates playing music and having a party. What's hard about that?"

According to the Star, Sean was arrested for launching an egg at 10 Downing Street and fined for trashing a hotel room while listening to the Sex Pistols.

Nils Frahm headlining the Glade would be the stuff of dreams.

Nils Frahm anywhere would be amazing.

Very quickly off the top of my head others I'd like to see would be:

Beck

Sylvan Esso

Perfume Genius

Portishead

Kiasmos

Kendrick Lamar

DJs, Moodymann, MCDE and John Talabot

Oh and a ticket and someone to go with. My usual Glasto pal maybe moving back to NZ and is talking about ticking Ibiza off before going home instead. Gutted.

Why would anyone turn down free tickets for anything? I went and saw Razorlight do a free instore gig once just because it was free and friends were going.

Interesting, what you've done there is ask a question, then immediately answer it in the following sentence

They're going for a few hours tonight and then again on Sunday. Camping's not really their thing. Wanted to scream give the tickets to me.

When I worked in advertising I did the idents for the Parkinson show. Went once to watch it being filmed and Razorlight were playing. Was still worth it for the free beer.

It was a fairly intimate indoor show in a basement that was limited to people who turned up and bought the single at a specific time (which I didn't). The music was shit, but I thought the situation was pretty cool. I was 15. At that age I skipped a history GCSE paper to try and see Kasabian play a super cool intimate gig in the War Rooms that I had won tickets to through the NME. That was what I was like at that age. I wasn't daft enough to miss a maths exam though.

I can't think of an act I wouldn't sit through for free alcohol.

    • Maybe hopeful but get Knocked Loose on the Sunday opposite the legend. Similar to the slot Turnstile had in 2022. Would be absolutely phenomenal.
    • One of my personal favourite bands at the minute - MUNA. Was very surprised not to see them booked in 2023 with their last album but hopefully they'll be around next year. Very fun new album from these guys and, as aforementioned, another standout for me at Big Weekend.
    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today.
