*Eric Clapton, Van Morrison, Haim, David Cameron, and the banjo fella shuffle on stage*

And a 1-2-3-4

So divorced am I,

Antifa stole my wife,

Enoch Powell was rig——yegods, we've been milkshaked

That's pretty poor company for Haim. Can I not enjoy them anymore either...? What did they do?

Haim and Dave come as a pair in said scenario. Let's maybe chalk the below photo opp up to naivety or bad advice, and allow a do-over. 

However, dedicating a tune to spam shagger on live telly with — verbatim quote — "This one's for you DC" really did them no favours.

Not a good look. I thought they were meant to be cool.

I think they were a fairly new band at the time and on the same show as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, which probably seems an interesting scenario to a young US band. Regrettable in hindsight but eh.

One Direction had that music video where they all cuddled him. Probably worse.

Yeah, not worth handwringing about a new/young band probably not familiar with the political landscape here who were booked on a morning TV programme to play a tune and took a picture with the very famous prime minister. They've been explicit about their political leanings and probably wouldn't do it given the choice nowadays.

Exactly. Cameron never recovered from that.

If we are going to condemn Haim for the picture with Cameron then shouldn't we also condemn any musician who has had a picture with Obama as he is obviously one of the most notorious war criminals of the 21st century?

Yeah but he gets his daughter to make yearly lists of ‘his’ favourite songs so he cool.

You mean the guy before Obama. The one who made the 180 on Saturday when he talked about terrorism.

"I know I've done a lot of drugs, but is Wayne Rooney on screen?"

Hearing someone in the crowd say that during Beyonce's set never fails to make me laugh whenever I remember it 😆

What was Rooney doing? Somehow the first I've heard of this.

I remember a guy telling me he'd seen Rooney up in the naughty corner dancing with Mick Jagger and Keanu Reeves. I found it hard to believe.

If she’s out does this give Reg a clear run?

Not sure it changes anything.  If Reg announces another BST date on Sat then he's probably out of the running for Sunday GF as it would be the only 3 night run on his tour.  If he doesn't do another BST then he's free for either GF Sat or Sun.  Taylor could still do Sat if Reg was doing Sunday.

I think it's been well established recently that his voice is in great shape (insert grimace emoji).

    • Either or. They both play the same venues.

    • Interesting to read. It's mostly why we stopped going a few years back even though it's the nearest big festival to home. The post-exams timing and location makes it a rites of passage first festival for people in a big area. Understandably that leads to a bit of giddiness. Think lineup would need to be a lot more my cup of tea to be enticed back. Friends who are there are having a good time tho and no rain is a good thing for up there.
    • I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.
