Don't take this the wrong way, but if I see you heading to watch a set I will probably stop to evaluate my choices and promptly walk in the other direction. You have clearly won this game. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incident Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 4 hours ago, FloorFiller said: They are, but haven't done anything other than tour their old material for ten years now so it's a bit of a 'why now?' booking. It's even a bit deeper than that. I'm not even one of those people who bangs on about needing new material or where on an album cycle it falls (and I don't think the bookers pay nearly as much attention to that as people on here). But their most recent set at Bestival, which while fantastic contained a whole 2 songs that were released since they last headlined the Pyramid Stage, 23 years ago and even I find that a bit static.

Mardy Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 OK, this is mortifying, I'm going to say this then wander off for a bit. Shaggy instead of Chic last year The things we do for love, eh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divein Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Are you sure? I went to Shaggy, but couldn’t really get a good spot so left, went to get some food and a drink and caught some of Chic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nile jumped onto the stage wearing his white Stratocaster and asked the crowd "ARE YOU READY???" before sheepishly sloping off because it turned out that the band wasn't.

priest17 Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Black Eyed Peas instead of Blur. Coldplay instead of Chems. Beyonce instead of QOTSA/The Streets. I mean I could go on in terms of hindsight mistakes but they're not really regrets, for one reason or another they were the right decisions at the time. Although when I mention I was at 09 and people immediately ask how good blur were sometimes I just lie and say how good they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he clashed with Bazza, I was holding on and holding on at the pyramid as long as I could, but eventually made my way to see shaggy, who was late and a huge disappointment.

I'd been dragged to John Peel to get a decent spot for the not so secret Killers set, although they were decent I remember being quite annoyed as I really wanted to see Shaggy for nostalgic purposes- makes me feel better that i've heard a few people say how awful he was. Now i'm just slightly disappointed I missed the many faces of HAIM on the other. I did catch the end of Chic though which seemed ace.
