4AssedMonkey Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I always loved Supergrass back in "the day" and only got to see them once. I was beyond excited that they got back together to tour and then Covid fucked that into a cocked hat. They are one of my only 4 absolute must sees this year. BUT Almost nobody out of my mates, fellow Glasto goers, wife, colleagues etc. could give a flying shit. Searching here, seems no one gives a fuck either. Is it just me? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZigster Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Not just you. Me also. Very few must sees but Supergrass are one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClementsMike Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 No. I saw them in the old days and then saw them on the reunion , it was my last pre Covid gig in March 2020. They are excellent live and have an awesome catalogue of songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaniyell Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I'm in! I went to see them in Manchester just before the lockdowns came in, awful warehouse venue, but a fantastic set! Open the Other Stage on Friday! I double dare them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
March Hare Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 They put on a good show at IoW in 2021 Plenty in the crowd too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4AssedMonkey Posted May 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I was late to them to be honest. Thought the debut album was average and hated Alright (still do). Everything after that though was incredible. Moving and Richard III are such great songs on every level. Gaz Coombes solo stuff is also brilliant. In fact, I'd say he's probably one of the most underrated songwriters of the last 25 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simsy Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Saw them at victorious last year, great fun. Someone in front of me was air-bongoing along to Richard III, which I assume means they misspent their youth playing donkey konga 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s 16 of our regular Glasto crew coming this year and every one of the will see Supergrass. Have seen them many times, always great. Gaz on his own in William’s Green back in 2014 (I think?) was great as well. Thoroughly looking forward to them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrystalPalace Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Seen them twice since reunion once at South Facing Festival and at Brixton both times they were cracking. Will see them at Glastonbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthbanKen Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Not a must see, but after the excellent show they put on at the Pilton Party a definite option depending on where I am and who else is on. Never owned any of there stuff but still plenty of bangers for the casual fan to have a real bop to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I almost saw them at Latitude last year but they were at midday after a late night, so I stayed at camp. Definitely would like to see them, Alright has to be one of my favourite songs of all time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokesy10 Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 They're on my "want to see" list rather than my "100% seeing" - really hope there's no clashes. A good handful of our group will be in the same boat. Saw them at Arctic Monkeys LCCC show in 2007 and they were bloody brilliant. If I remember correctly the drummer looks weirdly like a young Macca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDayman Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Saw them at Lansdowne Road back in 2000 when they were supporting Oasis. Class gig. 22 years on and I'll be doing my best to see them again at the farm. Edited May 19, 2022 by TheDayman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KidneyTerra Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Must see for me. They’ll play a set of bangers, all thriller no filler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdm22 Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) On the barrier for their Roadmender Northampton gig early April and then saw Gaz Coombes at the Lexington in London a couple of weeks later. Both awesome gigs and will definitely be seeing them at Glastonbury too. Edited May 19, 2022 by cdm22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry bear Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Quite liked them back in the day - 'In It For The Money' was a great album. Only saw them once though - supporting Oasis in 1997. Hope to catch them on the farm, but it'll depend who's on elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 First two records are a hit-fest. Tight harmz from Mick. Danny a gifted drummer. Should be a whopper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartbert two hats Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 In 2004, The Libertines cancelled at short notice probably to do with drugs. Then their replacement turned up, stopping the rain and making a rainbow appear and playing a storming set, including a very rousing acoustic version of Caught By The Fuzz. Most excellent times were had by all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lubic Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Don't know much by them other than the obvious songs, but enjoyed their IOW set on tv last year. Caught by the Fuzz went straight on a few of my playlists. Hoping to see them on the farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
