I’m not too cool to admit I’d be there for the whole thing.

Same here. Almost completely missed Noels solo stuff, I think because of how bad Oasis were for the last few years. However I listened to that High Flying Birds Best of he released this year and he’s actually done a lot of good songs. Way above post-1996 Oasis.

His last solo album - Who Built The Moon? - is, IMO, the best thing released by any act affiliated with Oasis since the Masterplan.

It’s weird to hear him talk about the festival positively. He’s always been the type to slag off the festival while enjoying it in private.

Him and Liam very publicly sulked after they were widely criticised for the car crash that was 2004. They’ve both softened considerably in recent years.

The Jay-Z thing in 2008 was pretty hysterical too....a lot of sour grapes towards the festival after that from NG.

He's firmly in the box marked "if nothing else is on".  Inoffensive and has some good tunes with NGHFB, but doesn't excite me either. I know I'd have a reasonable time without finding it shit.

Noel SR on the rumours page.  It’s so great looking with anticipation at the rumours page again.  Hopefully in coming months it’s the resale,  weather, headliner, posterdrop , ticket delivery etc threads that we will all be devouring! 

If I get past the resale I think I'll be thinking about Glastonbury 100% of the time!!

Yet still showing up and being chauffeured in to the backstage area on a daily basis and being interviewed by BBC pretty much every year since.

I liked the bit in the Jo Whiley broadcast where he described being backstage at the Gorillaz gig and how great it was to see De La Soul there ‘and all the rappers’

Still laid up in hospital I take it Neil?

Hope your recovery is going OK.

An ok currently bed blocking, due transfer for physio rehab, which doesn't look like it'll happen they won't ok me for discharge without the rehab to get me stronger, while I sit here getting weaker, fecking madness.

So hope that those on here who are ticketless manage to get success in the resale.  The resale thread will be the focus of attention and assistance come April

Could easily see a Macca/Noel team up too. Noel’s not shy about covering Beatles songs live so it’s not a stretch to imagine Macca getting him out for one.

I can equally see Neil Finn getting involved. Paul and Neil are big fans of each other and Neil played at Linda's funeral.

      Primavera Sound 2026

      By davidd · Posted

      f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.

      Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December).

      After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.

      You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
