Ok, hands up, who would have predicted that the only person not to cancel a gig in the summer of 2020 would be Sam Fender?

It actually clearly states at the bottom of that poster that there wont be any jazz

They’re very big at the moment so I don’t think it’ll be too bad for them. Shame they’re f**king terrible as it’s always good and increasingly rare to see a heavy band making waves so quickly in this day and age.

Me and my friends are listening to an album a day this year. We take it in turns between the four of us to rotate the choices, and then give it a first impression rating, a favourite/least favourite track, and any 'notes' we'd like to pass on. One of my friends added the new Sleep Token album because he's somewhat into that scene, liked Vore, and knew it had a lot of discussion. 

Good grief. I'm fairly into metal, but I thought it was genuinely unlistenable. The production is absolutely vile, so synthetic and boggy, I could not stand it. Plus, the 'Pop'/'RnB' tracks on it are some of the worst songs I have ever heard, I genuinely cannot fathom how or why they are so revered. 

Between the four of us, all variously into metal, some of us thoroughly into it, I think the highest rating it got was a 3/10.

How the times change.

Wonder how many instances we have of Glastonbury headliners supporting Glastonbury headliners. Must be a few.

More common back in the non-Global megastar era - I’m sure Muse and Ash toured, and Coldplay and Ash too for that matter

I saw Muse and Ash in a tent in Cork back in (I think) 2001. It was billed more as a double-headline show than one supporting the other.

Obviously at that point Muse had yet to headline Glastonbury, and for my taste Ash being former headliners only applies on a technicality.

That reminds me of Professor Green supporting Fall Out Boy. Made no sense.

It was in the era when he was married to the Quality Street heir (or recently divorced). I assumed at the time it was a buy-on.

Yeah there are large portions of their music where they’re barely even a rock band and it’s quite hilarious to see all these metal head types who would usually look down on and sneer at anything pop/RnB leaning all hyping this band up because they wear masks and robes. I’m all for blending genres if it works but I find their blend of metal and rnb with buttrock vocals so lame.

      Glastonbury 2027 ticket price predictions

      By nikkic · Posted

      This is my guess too.    2028 festival breaks the £400 barrier.

      Yeah I did spot that AXS had more available for the O2 shows Muse are doing, though I think that comes with the territory of AXS now being the venue's primary ticket selling platform.    My instinct remains they'll probably still play to a big crowd on the night - sales were similarly slow in 2023 but videos of those gigs showed the venue looking pretty much full. Equally it probably would be sold out if the pricing was even just slightly less ridiculous. Shave up to £50 off some of these categories and I think that would've got people to go with it.

      Some are definitely already there with that and with another round of inflation looking like it's on the way, it certainly locks that in. And I say that as someone who also isn't willing to break the £100 marker.

      A lot of people have said this online but does the Marvel world need new cities to play with? New York seems to be a target of all the villains to the point where you wonder why anyone in that world still lives there. Much as you can accuse me of overthinking it I guess haha.    I do agree that The Void is a compellingly different villain in many respects given the superpower is trapping people in their most traumatic memories. Shame in some respects the film came out in the post-Endgame funk Marvel seems stuck in and a lot of people missed out on it.    Speaking of, I rewatched Infinity War the other day. First time I think I've seen it since seeing it in the cinema on its opening day. Holds up pretty well imo - I have issues sometimes with ensemble casts and jumping between 4/5 storylines but it felt this one got the balance right and also properly explored Thanos. So it was good.
