BlackHole2006 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 The reason why this is a fantastic booking is because it gives a MASSIVE middle finger to the bedwetters & soft boys hoping for Foals, Thom Yorkshire Pudding and Fleetwood Mac this year. Glastonbury bookers have clearly gone out of their way to book whatever the fuck they like and as a result it’s one of the most diverse festival line ups in recent times. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anditmakesmesmile Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I’ll be at the Chems, but... I saw him at the Electric Ballroom a couple of years ago. And it was great fun. I loved it. I know lots of men are going to say “I like Sean Paul” and lots of women are going to say “I like the chemical brothers” (and of course they all can) but I reckon the gender balance of one will be the inverse of the gender balance of the other.

The clash for Saturday night headliners was already bad but have to admit it's a step down from The National rumour. How is it? He’s a bigger act who’s sold more records.

fatyeti24 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Oh my. If one of my all time favourite groups wasn't headlining elsewhere, and if I was drunk enough (I will be), I'd be sorely tempted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of upvotes, but definitely this ^^^^ I don't care who it is because there's already enough great stuff for me to see, but it's great they're booking a lineup with "something for everyone". We didn't need more average indie bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Dickfingers Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I was waiting for someone else on the main stage at Primavera last year and had to endure their set. It was absolutely shite. I like music across all genres, I just couldn’t see the appeal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 I’m not a fan - but it was worth booking him just to see the John Peel gag fly over (at least) three people’s heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no issue with Sean Paul playing I just personally found the idea of The National playing more tantalising. I'm not the one who resorted to name calling because people had different musical taste to me. I'm more than happy that it's an act I have no interest in as the clash between Chemical Brothers and Hot Chip is already tricky enough.

Fork_UK Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 Sean Paul could be great fun actually . Singing along to Get Busy in the sun with a pint is a dictionary definition of summer shenanigans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
