mattiloy Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Being anti ’white guys with guitars’ is exactly the same as being anti pop music. Probs 90% of white guys with Guitar music was shit there in the 2000s at its zenith during that indie scene but i’d say 90% of pop music is complete toss too. And to me the 1975 are the love child of the worst parts of that indie scene and god awful emo music. Like the feeling shagged MCR. But why throw the baby out with the bath water? I know they’re not going to be headliners, but the likes of Franz Ferdinand make great, interesting music and are great live. Stop being such a bunch of gavrilo princips. I dont hate pop, just shit blancmange lib dem music, and often the least offensive stuff becomes the most popular in the pop world, and artists like azealia banks who make more interesting but maybe less commercially viable stuff, and rage against the machine a little more, often become pariahs. A shame. 2013 - Stones 2014 - AF 2015 - half of Kanye West 2016 - none 2017 - didn’t go 2019 - Stormzy, The Cure Edited November 24, 2019 by mattiloy Jumping on the post yr headies bandwagon 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is my only regret headliner wise. I should have gone to see her. I did have a great night in the SEC though. I can't complain really.

Not really though, particularly not in the case of music festivals where the former have largely had the run of the place unchallenged for the last 30 years. And where criticism of the latter often comes with a side order of implicit misogyny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had said I wasnt going to see her and go off on my own for months before the festival. Ended up going along after Fat Boy on JP..... cried actual tears to Set The Rain on Fire. The Pyramid Stage is truely magical (nothing else had a hand in those tears...promise...)

Hugh Jass Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 I tend to naturally gravitate to the Pyramid if there’s nothing else on I fancy so I’ve seen a fair few of the headliners down the years. 04 - All three 05 - Two 07 - Two 09 - One (just Blur) 10 - Two 11 - Two and a half (caught the first half of Bey, second half of QOTSA) 13 - All three 14 - Two 15 - One (just The Who) 16 - All three 17 - All three 19 - One (just the Killers) So that’s 25 out of a possible 36.

Blur was the perfect sing along with a cracking set and Bruce was a great addition. 13 hours ago, Gnomicide said: Watching the Queen + Adam Lambert thing on Sky Arts, it's a damn shame to be honest, Queen on the Pyramid would be one for the ages. Queen on the pyramid stage would have been awesome but I’m afraid if Freddie’s not there it’s not Queen ,it’s a tribute act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen’s live shows weren’t just about Fred, it was also their peerless back catalogue. They’re still an awesome live act; granted without him it isn’t the same, but it’s still very entertaining and it’s a shame that such an important canon of work will never grace the Pyramid.
