I really don’t understand this phrase at all. If it gives you pleasure why do you feel guilty?

It’s something that one enjoys which is at odds with how they present themselves outwardly.

Sorry everyone. I’m as sick of seeing Chris Martin jokes as I am sick of seeing Chris Martin.

Yeah I get the definition, I’ve just never understood the concept.  It’s very strange. Why present yourself outwardly in a way that would mean you have to take on guilt for things you like.  

 

Too deep, but it’s weird.

Because of the stigma attached to those things by peers.

I don’t think it’s strange at all; there are unfashionable things that you may like but know that others won’t so don’t wear it as a badge. I find it more strange that people deem themselves immune to it, and that they’d happily, say, go socialise with new coworkers at the pub and go over and put Blink-182 ‘All the Small Things’ on the jukebox and sit down like nothing just happened.

I guess we are just very different then, which is fine ?

That Polyphonic Spree gig was fucking chaos.

I mean, I would totally do this...

Spice Girls? Fuck. Who else can they nab from V-festival as filler?!

She’s been saying it again... this time in an interview with Mail on Sunday. 

It looks like this is going to happen! 

“But my plan is for all five of us to do Glastonbury next year for the 50th anniversary. I’m in the process of persuading Victoria to do it. And I will make it happen.”

It looks like they’re begging for the job that has already been given to Carole King.

I kind of hope victoria sticks to her guns, it would be weird if she caved just for one show.

legends slot would go down a storm. Easily avoided if you dont like the idea of it.

It depends I guess on whether you're choosing music you want to hear or things that you think other people will enjoy.  There are a few small bands I love but in company I will choose something a bit more recognisable to put on.  Not because I'm hiding who I am but just trying to be inclusive.  So in those circumstances, yeah,  I'd choose something I think more people than just me would enjoy.

Ok but that’s kinda the other side of the coin; leaning into the more socially favourable things, whereas ‘guilty pleasures’ is to do with subduing the more unfavourable.

I get why people are more relaxed about the idea when on an internet message board where we exist as usernames but don’t get why people would then feign confusion as to how one can be ashamed of some music they enjoy at all. Even if it’s not music it can be, idk, Love Island or Norbit or something that y’all can relate this to.

Hard to work out if this has any truth to it, given the last tour almost didn't happen 

Sounds like Mel B just having wishful thinking out loud

This is how I'm reading it, too. If they had been booked surely they'd have been asked to keep it quiet until closer to the festival?

Ha. I’m really not feigning confusion. I like what I like and I feel no shame or guilt about it.

I reckon Michael should make it a condition of them playing that Geri replaces the union jack dress with an EU flag one
