And those waiting for Reptilia, Is This It, Someday, Hard to Explain etc? They've got a fair few very well-known, very recognisable songs, albeit largely off their debut album (which is incredible). This is no different to making the equivalent joke about The Cure with Friday I'm in Love (with Boys Don't Cry as the second one).

I love that song by The Cure... you know... the one that goes:

"Sunday Monday happy days, Tuesday Wednesday happy days Thursday Friday happy days. Saturday what a day. Groovin all week with you"

One of the greatest gigs I've been to was The Strokes at the Barrowlands in 2001. A real 'I was there' moment. But there's no way they're Glastonbury headliner material. They could headline The Other or sub the Pyramid but I don't see them taking either slot if they're getting headline slots offered to them by the likes of BBK

So memorable you got the year wrong? ?

Ha! No war! The only reason I know is that I was at the Brixton gig a few days later. Touty ticket outside for £40 (Daylight robbery on my part!) and felt pretty special. The thing that hurt the Strokes biggest was the break after Angles. First Impression was bloody decent in my opinion and Angles was better than Be Here Now in my opinion. The split after just didn't have the same sense of mystery that some have had. No chance of headlining Pyramid, but surely could headline Other.

Saw the Strokes at Reading ‘11, but only because Jane’s Addiction cancelled their set on NME stage. I have no great desire to see them again. JA still owe me a set, however.

As poor as they were then I loved it, Jarvis coming on stage showing them how it’s done was an absolute moment.

Yeah, same here although I did enjoy their set and would watch again.

Janes Addiction don’t owe me a set however, saw them in Download a few years ago, awesome

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
