Membi Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 What do you think about Brian May words and the possibility of "Queen" headlining? I haven't seen almost anything here about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 These Madonna rumours, whilst undoubtedly without merit, have at least given us a break from Foals for a wee bit. Cheers Jeremy lad!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 There have been complaints but I think some European fests this year are fucking goals. So many with both Billie and Taylor headlining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy0808 v5 Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 I genuinely don’t get what the fuss with Billie Eilish is, I feel like I’m having an aneurism whenever I hear her stuff. I tried giving it a go prior to this year’s fest and just couldn’t. She’s obviously popular and a major coup for anyone who books her, but she’d be a wasted space high up a bill for my tastes ??♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap between Colombia and the Euro tour (which glasto sits in the middle) is too wide. Obviously I’d like her back but I don’t think she’s doing any UK festivals next year (especially with four nights at the O2). My current plan is to scarper some money together and get a second hand ticket later on in the year. Not exactly sure if my chances are high for that though!

Not very uplifting, not very funky, not very loud, no beat. As its a bit dark & moody, I want her to be loud, but she isn't angry enough either for me. Big chunks of virtual silence in the tracks. But the kids seem to like her. Im 35, Im not the target audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bisque Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Is it me or are the forums not as lively this year as they have been in previous around the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's kinda slow but I also think that's normal... it's the weird spot in between us not quite expecting an announcement and us frothing at the mouth for any tiny hint. There also seems to be a lack of (credible) rumors this year. One foreshadowing comment from Neil and the board will come alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morph100 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Yeah just a bit light on rumours or announcements currently. maybe some of the more casual people have gone off to Facebook? (More fool them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Seems teeming with activity compared to October 2017. Anyway, Billie Eilish is the bee's knees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Billie is cracking. I was watching Jimmy Fallon t'other day and he was saying every pop song for the next few years is going to sound like Bad Guy. I think he's dead right. Her and her brother have changed the game completely. To come out with music that almost feels like anti-pop, that's so dark and brutal but sells like gangbusters is an insane achievement. They've tapped in to something that so many others have struggled to do. But anyway, can't see her coming back for a while now until she headlines the joint.

Heard Bad Guy, Bury a Friend & When the party's over. Stormzy for example isnt kind of thing, but I get why people like it. So far, I don't get Billie Elish, but I am willing to be converted.

With Eilish I would say that her stuff transferred to live way better than I thought it would, as I was similarly unconvinced. In my world (bear with me on this) she's in the same category as Kasabian. Unlikely that I'll listen to more than one or two tunes on record, but much happier to see them live as I know I;ll have a blast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
