You know Paramore has done that song acoustic a ton over the years before it was retired, right. Hayley is catching flak for doing this though.

Although she’s obviously free to do whatever tf she wants, it is quite funny that she announced the song as being retired for a while at the last Paramore show and has now jumped at the chance at playing it live again. Maybe Paramore themselves will continue to distance themselves from it, and I understand that this is a cool opportunity for her as the song has gotten extremely popular due to Olivia Rodrigo’s praise and TikTok etc, but she didn’t stick to her guns for very long so I understand why people are bringing it up (but also, like I say, she can do what she wants, so fuck it).

Really on the fence with Billie.. I do like her music and think she's an exciting prospect to go and see at this point in her trajectory, but my god.. those live videos do nothing for me. The vocals don't particularly translate that well to a live setting and it just seems to be synced to a backing track. It seems everyone is excited for the 'celebrity' of Billie Eilish in those videos without her really doing much. She's so talented I wish the live show looked better.

I know I'd have a better time at Little Simz, but I already saw her last summer at EOTR and would definitely pay to see her again, whereas with Billie this is probably one of a small number of opps. 

Also. Four Tet. 

Maybe I'll just see where the night takes me?! 😄

I think Billie is going to smash it. Really looking forward to her set. 

My only concern is that beyond the upbeat and well known singles there are a lot of slow, quiet songs. Actually, personally,  I'm looking forward to an acoustic "your power" as much as "bad guy".

I Just worry that people might drift off when it's not wall to wall bangers. I know she was really well received at Coachella although I'm not sure how many clashes there are there. 

Also, if I hadn't seen Little Simz recently and going to be see her a few weeks after glasto I would be there because she is amazing live.
