[Barkwin]

Koffee on West Holts - v good! 

Upbeat and matched what looks like golden sunshine down there

[SwallowOrSleepOnTheWetSpot]

Lorde's outfit looks great.

Never been abled to get on the Jack White boat sadly - just can't warm to him...

He's alright, but I've never been a big fan.

I just watched a bit of Kacey Musgraves after the plaudits above and I didn't get it. All sounded quite bland to me.

TURNSTILE.

Jeez, that was a blinder indeed. First time I've seen them or indeed heard them, I think. Almost a bit Ragey

[SwallowOrSleepOnTheWetSpot]

Not much people at all at Lorde.

Always a tough slot before the Headliner on Sunday.  I'm sure the bulk heading for food and drink before Kendrick or PSB. She sounds good though

The combination of that outfit with the custard hair looks absolutely silly but I love it  

[SwallowOrSleepOnTheWetSpot]

Al these Solar Power tracks are super mid. She was much better at Primavera.

[verrymerry]

Evening! Have been watching intermittently but finally logging on to see what the craic is!

[Phoenix Girl]

I think Lorde looked fab. But turned over to Javis now

[mynameismatt]

Yeah really surprised by the size of Lorde’s crowd compared to the size of Wolf Alice’s etc. feel like her critical opinion and that of people online has never tallied with actual sales or tickets, but Pyramid at this time seems a perfect setting for her. 

[BenG92]

Lorde's aight but looking at the whole bill right now I'd definitely be stocking up on food and booze for Kenny

Her latest album really didn't go down well tbh, imagine she was booked before it.

 

Huge crowd for Years and Years. 

[VCF]

Give me some A World Alone please (though unlikely).

That's when the waterworks started over here! Loved it.

On to Fontaines now, sounding huge. Decent sized crowd too. 

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.

Catching up on Skunk Anansie, good shit, Stoosh was one of the albums I borrowed out of my sister's pile when I was a kid and it was great to hear Yes It's Fucking Political in 2022.

Anyone who took the kids to see Years & Years because they like Starstruck, King and Sweet Talker is probably questioning their life choices right now. Wouldn't be out of place in the Downlow this.

I could listen to Jarvis read from, and sing the contents of, the phonebook. Still holding out hope that I'll finally get the chance to see Pulp in my lifetime.

Jarvis is a flipping national treasure! 

[benali]

Catching up on Turnstile. Great fun, good to see the crowd up for it too.

[DDave]

Everyone trying to not say that the Lorde performance isn't very good, which it isn't. Very flat.
