Just thinking its an incredibly stupid move really.  Wonder who he is trying to appeal too ? 

I mean I'm enjoying it but I kind of expected a stripped down play the hit kind of deal thing.

Think he's just doing what he wants to do with the stage show - think he's touring his album now with most of these songs on.

They were absolutely fantastic. Have seen them since they began and the evolution of their sound and musicianship has been pretty startling. Same energy but sounding immense now. There was lots of talk beforehand about potential Glastonbury moments. Felt sure it would be during Macca (did get a bit of a lump in the throat for the first few chords of Let it Be)…but as it turns out, the couple across the way into the stripped down version of big shot was comfortably my moment of the festival…huge performance from them considering they were up against the legends slot. 

Excellent to hear. I only saw last 15 minutes but it's one I'll go back to for sure.

Do not expect to see this Years and Years set on prime time BBC2.

Can only imagine the conversations in the production department on how to show this.

 

Either way it's a bloody good performance from him and all his stage dancers.

The guy who keeps going in pits holding a guitar up in the air. WTF?

He’s had some tv coverage this weekend, he was front and centre at Skunk Anasie and Idles 😂

I felt the same, loved the intensity.  Spent the afternoon trying to decide where to see them for my birthday in November- Dublin, Belfast or Edinburgh (my home town).

I've actually really enjoyed Lorde. Green Light and Royals were gorgeous big singalong moments. Also I just have a soft spot for her.

Will be going back to watch a bit of Jarv shortly.

Mind is boggling about Years and Years so will have to check that out! Loved them in 2019.

I also really enjoyed Lorde and Green Light, a little surprised Years and Years are so high up and have pulled a bigger crowd than Lorde tho...

Apparently that's his stage show from his latest tour lifted straight for Glastonbury with presumably a few less songs - either way it's absolutely incredible. Just pure eclectic unashamed fun.

 

They'd (him and his dance troupe) make a great headliner on fun factor, but there probably nowhere near big enough.

Tiny crowd though.

Never heard of her either, so amazed she's that high up WH.

Saw the last few songs and she was great. She's pretty big to be fair, I guess if you want to judge it by social media then she has way more followers than bands like Fontaines or Idles.

Anyway Pet Shop Boys up with a tough gig following that. 

Considering the alternatives they should have most of the older crowd still left in the field. Kendrick / Bicep / Charli is a hell of a split for the young'uns.

Bicep can sod off and Charli plays every festival going every year. Kendrick is where it’s at ❤️

I like both the others but will be checking out the Kenny set and praying he does the career spanning setlist he did in the states not long ago!

    • Came here to post that.   Not based on any info, can just see it happening.
    • I'm not sure about the entrance but it wouldn't be a surprise to find the festival have secured use of the land from Steanbow who own it for either new CV space, or for authorised off-site camping as they did with Worthy View.  An authorised off-site pitch-your-own with decent facilities priced just below WV would fly off the shelves as an option.
    • Burnham needs to hold onto his seat , plus needs labour to hold onto all those other seats that could go Reform, so I think some blue labour stuff might stay...and it will be back to the tactic of hoping enough left/liberal voters will get behind labour and not go Green in order to stop a Reform govt...obviously wasn't working with Starmer, but might with Burnham if he shows enough leg. Have to see, Burnham is going from a cushty job where he's very popular and seen as successful to probably the most difficult job going, prime minister of this country...and his popularity might not last long when people realise he can't fix all the problems over night. What he can do is give a sense of direction and optimism which is badly needed, but he will also be faced with a whole bunch of nasty trade offs and could be where Starmer is now in a matter of months.
    • Yep, The Cure and The xx are the two most painful misses for me this year. The Cure literally plays at every corner, except the one I attend to.
