Maybe he’s just resting for two weeks, the sleepy bugger he is.

That was Lennon that was always so tired and only sleeping.

someone called Flume

Cant tell if this is a joke or not, but Flume is great and not a world away size-wise from Kendrick in 2015...

Hang on while I check with my mum.

[FatAmmy]

I feel the need to at least slightly defend the honor of US festivals and say that Hangout and Firefly always get announced well before the big ones and are always some of the worst lineups out there. They are both especially bad this year, though

Well....yes, only half joking.  I know who Flume is.  Though, it came a year after the same festival had AF/LCD/Killers as headliners.  People were expecting something more along those lines.

Yeah just had a look and Imagine Dragons and Frank Ocean as the other 2 aint great.In saying that the undercard looks a lot more to my tastes that year lmfao (Solange, Porter Robinson, Justice, Illenium, Phantogram, Mura Masa, Royal Blood, THEY., Louis The Child, Death From Above, Honne, Mitski etc.)

Assuming Macca and The Wu are in attendance, I hope for this on the Pyramid.

If it makes you feel better then I think there was 11 acts who did both in 2016, including some bigger acts like Disclosure, The 1975, Ellie Goulding and Earth, Wind & Fire.

Yes it does 100% make me feel better. Thank you ??

I’ve never heard of Flume either.

Then again I hadn’t heard of Kendrick Lamar when he got announced for Reading so don’t use me as a gauge.#outoftouch

Flume did an ace track with yer man Beck Hansen... At least I think it was them. 

[Jay89]

I’ll stand in Flume’s defence too.. ‘You & Me’ was always there with me through so many hazy nights... ?

[Gnomicide]

So to those who went to Mecca last night, how was it? How's the voice, the band, the tunes?

Setlist looks more than decent.

I enjoyed Halall My loving...

[Hugh Jass]

Jokes aside, the second half of last night's setlist is pure audio porn. The lack of Temporary Secretary and Jet is disappointing, but I'll get over it.

Very much looking forward to Sunday now.

Did he play his classic album Ram-adan?

[Keithy]

Am loving he pulled out Wonderful Christmas Time. Few additions to the set list since I last saw him at Rock Werchter in 2016 

That run from Lady Madonna is something else.

That's what I meant by audio porn!

[jparx]

Aye that's a helluva setlist. That final hour on the Pyramid is going to be next level shit.

I'm not sure what people think about this, but here goes - Fuh You is a banger. 

[Badlands]

I'd be lying if I said Lady Madonna,  Ob La De and Hey Jude were at the top of my list of Macca songs. I dunno, appreciate he has to play the hits, but do we really need another run out of Jude?

[Gnomicide]

We don't need it but come the end of his set you'll be Na Na Na Na-ing with the best of them. 

[The Nal]

His voice is gone, he should pack it in, hes past it, he doesn't play any tunes I want to hear etc.

 

 

If he didn't play Hey Jude he would be forced to exit the festival like this

Come on Macca. Quite possibly the last major televised UK show. Time to do Ram in full.
