BBC Glastonbury

[MrZigster]

I think I prefered Dave (wasn't at either mind).

[CaledonianGonzo]

I rewatched it the other night. Iconic isn't a word to use lightly, but the imagery that night must still be lodged in the brains of anyone who was there.

👍 bbc. It's been awesome

And still is

Get iPlayer only seems to be able to find the programs that have been broadcast on TV. Is it not able to download the full sets that are only available on iPlayer?

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Stormzy was excellent. Was sad for the Tame Impala clash though.

Rum and Lemonade (my cola ran out).

I'm going to have to take a run to the bar as said rum is not going to last me through Blur tonight. I'll wait for Adele, as it's the equivalent of a repetitive drum solo.

Good grief. I did a shop Friday. A box of cider, three bottles of wine  and a litre of rum later . Good job I don't have to drive home.

Is this the right thread? (staggers)

What command are you using?

 

try
get_iplayer --pid=b007r6vx --pid-recursive

Yes noticed this earlier. Used to be able to grab anything with the PID but doesn’t seem to let you anymore. Not sure what other solutions there are 😕

Got my first beer on the go and is going down better than expected. Watching grimes again - not the sort of thing I usually like but enjoying it. She seems nice too - not sure what she did to deserve Elon musk.

the get iplayer web pvr schedule only shows the broadcast sets. If you want single sets, get the codes (PID) from the url for each set and use them in the get_iplayer command

eg get_iplayer --pid m000kjjw --pid p08gk982 --pid p055ysv6

Have watched Blur, Wolf Alice and Glass Animals today (so far).  
 

Can see what people meant by the Blur performance..... magical.

Wolf Alice - remember being worried about them with a daytime pyramid slot but they were brilliant.

Glass Animals - really like the frontman, very energetic, were one I wanted to see this year so I hope they’re back again.

A nice cup of tea and Blur 2009.

Fuck me I love this set.

That has found everything, cheers! Only thing is, it seems to be automatically downloading the whole list!

Chinese Lanterns were still a thing in 2009.

Didn’t Damon Albarn comment on them? I’m trying to remember when they were banned?  2011?

You can also supply a single, comma-separated list, like so:

get_iplayer --pid m000kjjw,p08gk982,p055ysv6

They're still a thing now amongst people who didn't get the memo.

He did, I thought they had been banned by then but must have been later.

Thats kinda the point of that command. Youll get tons of audio too. But as mentioned above you can use the single urls to get specific things.

 

so who recorded and is going to upload the 2010 and 2016 highlights programs that was on the tele this weekend. And Scissor Sisters.

That's not a Chinese lantern, it's the Stereophonics arriving by hot air balloon.

Thanks, that's what I was looking for.

I don't find Dave a particularly engaging performer. There's no real energy or dynamism, he just wanders about, lightly jabbing with one hand and very clearly and competently rapping. But worse than that there's a lack of stagecraft, and - for the lack of a better word - oomph to his shows (Alex at glasto type moments aside) And I say that as someone who really likes his music!  He just doesn't have the force of personality of Stormzy, Skepta and the likes, for me.

Fair enough. I may have actually got Dave confused with someone else. In fact I'm pretty sure of it now thinking it through. Who was the guy on The Park with the really good brass section,? 'cuase that's who I preferred to Stormzy.

(I'm getting old and can't keep up. I swore I'd never be that guy and would always keep up with trends and pop music., but, here I am).
