Ms. Lauryn Hill's Bad Hat

[CaledonianGonzo]

Maybe she'd be happier if she took it off?

[kalifire]

You wouldn’t want to be her sound engineer, would you. Jesus. 

[shoptildrop]

What happened there, as she looked angry?? I figured she couldn't hear through her earphones but deal with it surely??

I turned over to watch Charlatans who nailed it IMO

60 minute version of Mik Artistik's "Can i get a bit more vocal in me monitor" song

[westholtschic]

Must confess she was shocking live. Massive disappointment.

[berylbigsis]

But not as good as the original!

[FloorFiller]

Thought she was ace myself but the constant demands for her mic/speaker to be turned up was very noticeable and very distracting. She’s a hell of a performer but clearly after all these years she’s still a bit of a control freak when it comes to her live sets. Also 15 minutes late and no Ready or Not so... mostly good but lacking set overall.

[Amy Lawn]

The sound crew fucked that right up, inaudible wherever we stood, devastated ?

[jparx]

Last three songs were spot on. Sound was awful for the majority but she didn't cover herself in glory either. It all came together at the end so I'd say it was decent overall, but well short of potential, unfortunately.

I left after the second song, just wasn't happening for her.

Jorja Smith however was excellent

[Stokesy10]

Jesus she was Fucking shite. Never in 5 Glasto's have I walked off during an act I'd intended to see.

Sheryl Crow on the other hand, was exceptional.

[Thor]

Everything about her is so non Glasto

Yes, totally agree. Sheryl was fantastic and although Lauryn was never going to go around being in selfies and the like, I felt like the DJ intro essentially billing her as better than everyone else was misjudged at best, and when she came out and demonstrated that she wasn’t, the set was doomed.

She's not allowed to sing the originals so has to remix everything slightly.   Which is why it all sounded a bit off...

[gherkin8r]

Most disappointed I have ever been with a glasto set. Just awful. 

[nikkic]

Flat as a pancake until the last 2 songs unfortunately.

Had the potential to be great, but it just took too long to get going.

I felt Sheryl pre-loaded on the hits, all the big material up front and little in reserve. Wandered off before the end.

[ghostdancer1]

didn't see her Glasto set, but her own Irish gig a few days ago was exactly the same, spent most of it complaining about the sound, no Fugees tracks, 60mins and gone.  at least you got Killing Me Softly!

The DJ speaking about her at the beginning was self indulgent bollox followed up by a shocking live performance. Shame, was looking forward to it.

She definitely had more Fugees material to come, could tell they got pulled for running over. Usually ends with Ready Or Not. Shame.

 

again, she didn't bother doing it at her own gig in Ireland during the week where she was finished long before the curfew. same in Oxford. seems like she just can't be bothered half the time.

[phillyfaddle]

Was so looking forward to seeing her, but had a feeling it could go either way. We left after 15 mins. Sound was poor.

[Mouseboy11]

She absolutely smashed it one Bristol last night. Ending run of Doo Wop, Killing Me Softly, Fu-Gee-La and Ready or Not was incredible.

Shame she couldn’t nail the Glastonbury set.

Sounds like the opposite of what happened in Glasgow a few weeks back.

 

Ach well. Not the highlight of the weekend, but no regrets other than missing Rosalia.

Yeah but the likelihood of Rosalia returning meant that it was a 'what if.?' choice...

[Matt42]

She was terrible at boomtown. Also an hour and 15 minutes late.
