chuckles07 Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Am liking Damon Albarn. Mopey but good. Especially at this timeof night after a few stiffeners to relax. and it is fun with us watching at different times. Looking forward to Smile.

maelzoid Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 I’m not down with all the hate directed at Haim. They were great. that said, if I was performing on a gigantic mirror, I wouldn’t wear a skirt. coldplay now. As has been said, the staging is epic. Higher Power much better live than on record.

Kiwanuka was pretty standard - good and enjoyable but not blowing anyone away Kurrupt FM bit was funny Ezra was fun. I enjoyed him wandering about. Felt intimate and different to the other performances Idles nailed it. Great setting, Joe Rush randomly welding stuff in the background was hilarious and I loved to see it HAIM were spotless. Clearly love the festival and stoked to be there. Most talented band out there right now? Lost track of how many instruments they all played. Coldplay were Coldplay. Spectacular visuals but musically meh. Their new stuff is just awful, but yeah Fix You sounded and looked amazing Damon was okaaaay. Wasn’t really feeling it. My least favourite Damon haircut and probably least favourite project Jorja Smith was fun, largely what you’d expect This Smile thing is surprisingly listenable. Sounds like Radiohead demos really. The cctv camera thing is pretty neat I’m only up to Fix You. But can’t disagree with much of your assessment. Apart from Michael kiwanuka. I just love him!

Surprised how much it sounds like Radiohead. Might actually not be good for Radiohead that this sorta stuff is being put out for side projects but I'm not about to cry about it.
