Highlights? 

Probably won't show any of Stevie's songs then lol.

 

How is Rag'n'Bone Man getting on?

[CaledonianGonzo]

You'll need to ask someone who didn't skip his set two weeks ago to watch the Taiwanese reggae lads play to an empty Gully.

Is "the Human" not facing you as we speak? You're missing out.

I'm pre-loading (as the kids call it) in a pub in the Merchant City - that, handily enough, is currently playing Swizzle's 1989.

Seems like a better idea than cramming into Geoff Ellis's '30 minute queue for a beer' - fest.

[MEGABOWL]

Finished up with a spare for tonight. Free to good home. Can email if any takers.

London Grammar 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Holy moly. The post London Grammar pre B&S switcheroo is real.

And the numbers! The numbers is great! Brill setlist so far. 

[Wooderson]

Glezzgah gets the great gigz.

The extent to which no-one was there had to be seen to be believed.

I've seen you mention the rag man a few times now and I still can't tell if it's a joke or if you actually quite like him.

Anyway, that was really good. Not Glastonbury good obviously but still really good. Getting Reckoner was fantastic but again it was stuff like Lotus Flower, Myxomatosis and Bloom that came across best live for me. Not too many different songs from Glastonbury but I'm pleased with what I've seen across both, The National Anthem is the only realistic one they haven't done that I was really hoping for.

Who jokes about Rag'n'Bone Man?

Ed here saying there will be a few dates next year. Wonder if we'll see anything here, a proper London show maybe, or they'll just hit places they haven't been to yet.

Crowd were better tonight than on Tuesday (although did get hit four times with pints of what was thankfully beer). Not much different set-list wise but can't argue with Reckoner, Let Down, The Bends and Fake Plastic Trees.

[Northern Soul]

I was there tonight as I was at Glasto and thought they were much much better tonight than they where then. Maybe that was a combo of me being a lot closer to the stage and a bit more compos mentis tonight than I was 2 weeks previous but they fucking blew me away tonight. I think that's the 8th time I've seen them live and apart from the 1st time on the Kid A tour that was the best I've ever seen them. A1.....!!

[priest17]

Not sure where this threads up to but as a relatively part time Radiohead fan I walked (well... stumbled drunkenly) away thinking that was the best headline set I've ever seen. I was scared to see it after in case I was being drunk and silly.

 

Just watched it back and shit, I forgot baaaare, even better than I remember. No idea how anyone wandered off thinking it was dreary,  10/10.

Literally.

I had to scoot for the last train so I walked out the crowd during the first encore. This is the scene during No Surprises.

RIP TRNSMT

Somehow (and depressingly) I feel the other two headliners/days will fair much better in the crowd pulling department.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Well.....as a minimum the stage times today and tomorrow are a bit more sensible, so there'll be fewer folk sodding off while the band is still onstage.

[Wooderson]

That festival is toast.
