Can anybody recommend a possible or desirable setlist for them? I’m happy to be turned but at the moment never been impressed on the few listens I’ve given to them…

If you're looking for a taster set to try and get into them, then have a go at the following, in this order:

 

Chocolate

Love Me

Give Yourself a Try

Me & You Together Song

Looking for Somebody (To Love)

Heart Out

A Change of Heart

I Like America and America Likes Me (Real World Version)

If You're Too Shy (Let Me Know)

I'm In Love With You

Robbers

Somebody Else

About You

Love It If We Made It

Sex

Happiness

It's Not Living (If It's Not With You)

The Sound

 

If that's too long, then go for Love MeGive Yourself a TryRobbersSomebody ElseLove It If We Made It and It's Not Living (If It's Not With You).

 

If you're wanting a festival setlist idea, then try their R+L '22 setlist here - think it will functionally be very similar to what they might play at Glastonbury.

No idea if it will do the justice! And plenty probably out of order. But hope it's good.

 

Sometimes, they wear their influences very strongly - Give Yourself a Try is basically Joy Division's Disorder half a key change up, and Love It If We Made It owes a big debt to The Blue Nile - but I'd say the detractors who claim they're basically Simply Red Pt. II are just sneering for the sake of it.

Great song choice would swap the sound with girls

I suggest the first ablum. Also watch a few interviews on YouTube get to know the band. Watch their jools holland performance. Strap yourself in for June 2025 

The interviews with Matt Healy are probably what made me generally dislike them in the first place and not really give them a try, unfortunately

When I find a new band, I always watch the interviews. I have to like the person as well as the music. I understand where you are coming from. I think he is a great guy. I don't like when a singer does not address the crowd during a gig

What you dont understand about Matt Healy is that he is first and foremmost an artist. he doesn't need your approval. he doesn't need your money. he doesn't even need you schmucks to go to the pyramid stage and see him put one of the greatest show the pyramid has ever seen in front of 120,000-125,000 music fans. so while you're off inspecting your navals at caribou or enjoying your remote controlled anal beads at loyle carner he going to be bringing up banger after banger after banger. thought he was out of bangers? wrong he plays another one. then when you get back to your jobs a few days later and some actual real people talk to you, they are going to ask where you were for the only set that any one will be talking about. you'll start to reply that you 'only listen to real music', but then you will realise that you have to lie and say you were there otherwise you are going to be judged even more than you already are. you'll think about the decisions that led you hear and inside be screaming, but outside you'll try to smile and say 'it was amazing'.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
