slash's hat Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Tweeted Andy Bell about whether they would be at Glastonbury. He has not replied so I'm taking that as can't talk about it so yes! cos he wouldn't just ignore me right? # haven't really got a clue how twitter works # too old to care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit surprised at some of the comments on this thread implying they ain't got the funk. Kraftwerk are the funk. Kraftwerk are hugely influential to a lot of musicians. Granted, in my experience there's not a lot of dancing going on by the largely middle aged, white, 3D glasses wearing, audience, but the funk's there if you want it. Apart from Autobahn and a few others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Baffled by the #BensonLove, if I'm honest. If he'd have been coming to play some gee-tar in a combo with, like, McCoy Tyner or summat I could dig it. But on his jack singing the ballads I'm honestly not fussed. Am I missing out on something?

5co77ie Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) he's got a touch of the Neil Diamonds - you just don't realise how good his records are a bit of Womack: a bit of Leon Russell (RIP) and earlier this year: ...you're swaying, aintcha swayin'? and you surely know this little tune?

CaledonianGonzo Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Fair enough - I'll do some digging. I tend to think of him more along the lines of a cross between Alexander O'Neill and Theophilus P Wildebeeste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornelius_Fudge Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Someone already posted this in the hip hop/grime board but I thought I'd throw it in here for good measure. A Tribe Called Quest to announce a world tour. Solid Saturday/Sunday night headliner?http://consequenceofsound.net/2016/11/a-tribe-called-quest-to-embark-on-one-final-world-tour/ Fri: George Benson Sat: ATCQ Sun: Kraftwerk...............?

FuzzyDunlop Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 A tribe called Quest would be great. I'd be all over that. Just dont clash them with Radiohead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius_Fudge Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Okay didn't know George Benson was an exclusive elsewhere, but like @FuzzyDunlop says... no clash with Radiohead! Do the Eavii read these pages? Maybe enough of us comment we'd like ATCQ on Saturday night we can get them to keep it to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merago Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 ATCQ would make my weekend. I'd love that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius_Fudge Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 If it's a world tour though, they're going to be playing at a whole heap of places all over Europe, America and Asia. Would an exclusive deal in the UK for Bestival or Isle of White or something really make more money for them than spreading it out? They'd make more than enough to be able to do Glasto 'on the cheap', so to say, whilst also satisfying themselves they played one last time at the UK's biggest festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
