If you’d have shown that tracklisting to the 13yr old me, I’d have cried with happiness. The now 44yr old me is still chuffed to bits, I’m not going to watch any highlights and have the bbc sound mix destroy any of the gig memories I had, I thought they were ace and will continue to do so, let any of the criticising journalists think what they like, I don’t give a f**k 🤘 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 One strange omission from the Glastonbury set, especially for a band who are semi-limited in their huge hits/singles, was Don’t Cry. I figured they’d left it out either because they were just choosing to not play it on this leg of the tour or because it was a struggle for Axl to get through these days, but they played it at BST. Maybe it’s one Axl can just about get through but didn’t feel comfortable being televised as it’s almost all in that low falsetto that he seems to struggle with the most these days.

The other one has some weird origin on here to do with Matt Bellamy dabbing downwards and was applied to a negative reaction (I bet you wish you hadn't asked) i.e. an act that was due to play and now hasn't, has d@bb€d down.

MrZigster Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 Best T-Shirt since The Rolling Stones welly one. Or possibly the Metallica ones? Really should have bagged one of them. Thought they were a bit pricey at £40 (iirc?) The Elton hoodies were something else as well. No way I could carry off wearing one of them though.

I saw someone wearing the GnR Glasto T-shirt in one of the bars in T&C fields and was really surprised. ive never noticed band specific Glasto merch available before at previous festivals . Is it common? I have seen all the Glasto merch , and I have seen the headliners sell some for their own merch , but it’s the first time I have seen a band have their own Glasto specific designed merch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing where it was on the setlist for the other gigs, I'm almost certain they had to cut it due to possibly running out of time. My Paradise City video is at 23.50 about half way through the song, and I know they did guitars for a while at the end, so could've been in danger of having to rush the last song if they did it?

I kind of have a thing for them. Personal faves being the Oasis '04 turquoise, Portishead Big P Pilton in blue. The aforementioned Stones and Metallica ones (I have two Metallica ones but still wish I'd bagged a white one (everyone does black)) and a Muse one that I have misplaced somewhere and am really pissed off about. Same with my 2010 40th anniversary glow in the dark Glastonbury in red (the one with the moon. Best Glasto T-shirt ever contender that). Edit: Meant to add that I think you have to go to the merch stall in Other (though I did get my Metallica ones from The Pyramind it's the only year I can recall band shirts being sold elsewhere). Open on the Wednesday this year. Never used to open until Thursday. Edited July 2, 2023 by MrZigster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there's been others over the years, though often it's not much more than a generic band design with the date and location on it. Biggest obstacle to knowing about them is visiting the right merch stand at the right moment, as they never seem to last long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, I managed to grab one before they sold out as I knew I would regret not getting one, all the band specific Merch is at the other stage stand but the unique ones tend to be gone by Wednesday evening.

mungo57 Posted July 3, 2023 Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 just listening back to GnR set 'whilst working' and I can honestly say this is nothing like the sound in the field that faithful day. Don't know what the beeb have done with their mix but Axl's voice was much better live on El Pointo than this garbage. Same can be said for Alex Turner from Arctics too......

Pyramid audio from iplayer was much lower and compressed which was odd. Not the beat thing when watching a highlights compilation and having to adjust the volume 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
