Yeah soz mate, not comparable at all to Michael & The Jacksons really is it? I've started picturing Donald Trump typing out all of Gazza's posts. It's eerily fitting.

Michael solo doing his own stuff and covering The Jacksons is, but not a leader singer of a group and basically a tribute act for The Jacksons.

Huckleberry Finn Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 I had never heard of A Tribe Called Quest before they became rumoured for this year. Meant nothing to me when they were announced for a few fests. Am I the only one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be chuffed if they're playing but I've got my heart set on Radiohead and I'm not sure I'll be swayed. There was rumours that Blackpools finest, Busta Rhymes was gonna be touring with them, can't find anything of substance to verify that though.

They do not have the pop sensibilities as say De La soul, yet they have a nice chilled out and laid back groove about them. It is not like the in your face gansta rap stuff. They will be ace on West Holts. Edited April 15, 2017 by eastynh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going off some of the videos on youtube it looks like just a good bloody laugh, esp against the marathon/slog that'll be the Foos Without. It'll definitely be without.

maarrkk Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 New ATCQ album is right up there too - Dis Generation, Melatonin, Solid Wall of Sound and We The People all great examples off the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed it is. The earlier albums mark out their sound. Electric Relaxation was my gateway to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0paz Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 ATCQ is a must for me. Their back catalogue is amazing and the last album is fantastic. Anderson .Paak and Busta Rhymes performed with them at the Grammies so there is a good chance they will at Glasto too. It'll be a shame to miss the 'Lips but hey ho. Just got to hope RTJ aren't on Friday night too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTJ Friday for me too but if they do JP there will be a clash. 5th down Other ideally but I see no lower than 4th opposite RB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simian_mobile_mushrooms Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 Brave Sir Robin heard from a bloke in another Glastonbury forum that RTJ were Saturday and on the Other. I'm gonna say 3rd or 4th down on Other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unexciting, however last time I saw them I was just as unexcited and loved it, so it could be worse. RTJ and FJM during the day, The National as my sub and then Foos to end the day. Isn't a bad start on the whole, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTJ 4th down Other >>> Avalanches 3rd down WH is basically as good as my Sat gets. Jacksons would be a nice little bonus and there's always the Foos. I'm still going to see the start of the Foos and move off when I get bored and wander over to the WH again. The clashes are starting to mount up with some serious competitiors. RTJ v Avalanches v Katy Perry would be horrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
