billum Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 4 hours ago, Keithy said: The other issue is Macca (rightly) only plays his Beatle songs so you have huge swathes that never get played live or even get airplay. Not completely true - he throws in Being For The Benefit of Mr Kite (Lennon song) and Something (Harrison song) on most nights of the current tour. I've spotted a few other Lennon songs from time to time as well, but this is only a handful in a set of around 40 songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays A Hard Days Night, Mr Kite & Something in his current set. I'm clearly in the minority with Jude. Fair enough, it's certainly down to familiarity rather than the quality of the song that leaves me so ambivalent . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a pretty standard set of American festival headliners. I am surprised that Pearl Jam are being given another shot at Coachella in this current music climate. I guess if Gambino was on some lineups next year it would make his appearance at Glastonbury a bit more likely. I still think (unless I can be proven wrong) he will get snapped up by Wireless... would it be possible for him to play both? Surely he’d get a headliner slot at wireless which might put Glastonbury in jeporday. Bonnaroo looks to be getting Foo Fighters, Phish, Travis Scott, and Arctic Monkeys are the headliners this year. Weird times when Coachella doesn't get the best headliners for a US fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beau1 Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 https://www.post-punk.com/robert-smith-announces-the-cure-to-release-new-album-in-2019/ I'll only believe it when it's released but it seems there might well be a new Cure album next year. Cure also inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame with Radiohead and a host of other artists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could not watch Macca knowing that one of my fave bands were playing at another stage. Now if I get a ticket, I will have to watch Hot Chip on my own as literally all my group want to watch Macca. I would not regret watching Hot Chip where as I know that I would with Macca.

CaledonianGonzo Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 "Undeniably" my ass. Harry Potter and the lads pressing play on their Bontempi organs aren't fit to wash the sainted tootsies of Beatle Paul. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
