No shots of the crowd. All tight focus on the band. Not always a massive show of confidence 

Only two out of five so far they've played have really been crowd pleasers. Maybe even Get Innocuous wouldn't be at a festival either, though it would be at their own gigs.

Have you ever seen footage of a coachella crowd? It's just a fashion parade for cool rich kids with some music on the side, you wouldn't want to see any shots of the crowd 

[stuartbert two hats]

Yes, this will be good on the Other Stage.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Just watched an hour of people going bananas for Skrillex and Diplo.

I think you just answered your own question there...

[CaledonianGonzo]

I didn't have a question. 

[arcade fireman]

Figure of speech.

Well that's definitely LCD Soundsystem doing songs by LCD Soundsystem in the style of LCD Soundsystem.

I'm not so keen on all the video effects.  It's like watching a music video from the early eighties.  I want to see more of the actual band!

It's actually quite hard to watch at this hour!

Which is not a bad thing!

Getting really annoying now.  It settles down for 20 seconds or so, then starts being annoying again.

Do we reckon if they headline Other that they'll get as long as 1hr 50? Quite a long set but they need it given the length of some songs.

so like much of Glasto, then.

 

[fatyeti24]

I demand my constitutional rights to see bored rich kids not dancing! 

(in the crowd as well as on the stage)

Nah. 1h15-1h30. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

My point re. shot choices was more about the size of the crowd, not its demographics

I'm good with that as long as they don't cut 'Yeah' 

[blue6field]

Glad to see tribulations in the set!

sounding excellent

[LeeGalvin]

So what songs have been played so far? A lack of Get Innocuous disturbs me.

being updated in real time here:

looking at previous setlists, probably Home, Dance Yrslf Clean and All My Friends to come after Losing My Edge?

[arcade fireman]

The big songs are sounding big. Think they should tweak the opening few songs but overall very happy with this performance. 

[fatyeti24]

I wasn't expecting a bit of November Rain!

[kaytee...]

New York I love You sounding brilliant. And that November Rain snippet 

[Winslow Leach]

Fuck, they're playing Heroes!
