Creeper On The Hell Stage 4am

[CaledonianGonzo]

Constant ongoing death match for the Worst Band Playing Glastonbury 2024.  Just when you think it's a done deal a new contender comes along to up the stakes.

 

Acoustic plays Scouting for Girls, Stornoway and an Acoustic Set by Ocean Colour Scene.  Coming back stronger, Field of Avalon lays down The Feeling and BC Camplight. 

 

Then Shangri-La ups the stakes by deploying a Royal Sampler shouting about hot meals.

 

Other Stage laughs up its sleeve, cos it knows everyone's forgotten they're already holding Idles, Disclosure and The National trumps.

If an acoustic set by Ocean Colour Scene - in the year of twenty twenty four ffs -  isnt the worst possible potential activity of the glastonbury weekend then i'm a dutchman. And that includes all volunteering and working shifts.

Two words, my friends, all run and hide from the sheer self-unaware nepo baby to outdo all other nepo babies that is

 

Baxter Dury.

 

Even on a farm that has cows dropping fresh sloppy cowpats all over the shop for 10 months of the years, he'll still stink the place out.

I think you are all overlooking Woodsies' claim for booking the most talentless and uninspiring act on the planet in Sleaford Mods.  A terrible DJ pushing awful tracks and a roided up maniac shouting over them in a midlands accent.  Actually painful to listen to.

Son's crying now - cheers.

Is a Creeper secret set on the Peace stage an unacceptable compromise?

 

Is the dream really over? 😢

No, they're funny. In the same way that Spinal Tap is/are funny. 

big bottom is an absolute banger tbf, Sleaford Mods wont ever be able to get within a hundred miles of such a tune. Didnt Spinal Tap play early on the pyramid one year? That needs to happen again!

You cannot compare that sh*t to the Mighty Tap.  England's most punctual band!  I saw them on the pyramid and loved it TBF.  One of the best comedy films ever made.

Working through the acts so far, I happened across D-Block Europe, utilising an auto tune to levels that actually made me feel queasy to listen to it. I thought that had to be the low point, even on a bill contraining Anne-Marie and comedy dance troupe Confidence Man, but then I remembered Faithless were all set to draw a massive crowd to a sh*t stage by somehow pumping out massive turds stored on a USB.

if we are talking talentless, mik artistik gets my vote (will be playing about 15 sets there I imagine)

 

sleaford mods are legends!!

[CaledonianGonzo]

Mik Artistik is the good Sleaford Mods - and furthermore he doesn't sh*t his pants when politics raises its head.

Get to f**k.  Stealing money they are.  My dog has more musical talent.

I was not happy that he was Pulp's support in Manchester last year. 

Pretty much lived down to expectations

Love Sleaford mods! I will be there 100 percent. Should be headlining instead Gossip.

[Alvoram]

No idea what direction this thread took… But just wanted to say Creeper were brilliant in Lincoln t’other week! 
 

Apparently we were lucky to get VCR? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[CaledonianGonzo]

Saw them in Edinburgh a couple of weeks back - great fun

 

[4AssedMonkey]

Beyond me that anyone with 100% working ears could enjoy Sleaford Mods. Accidentally walked past their sets previously and wanted to scream at them to shut the f**k up. Awful noise pollution bollocks.

Because they have the audacity to be white men over 50 playing guitars, or because you don't like them personally?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Gossip are headlining a stage

i think you need context for them. midlands underclass slippin through the cracks of society vibe. their stuff really strikes a chord with some things ive seen and experienced. i have a middleclass friend in winchester who really doesnt get them.

ST were 2009. Was absolutely brilliant. So hot that afternoon too

Sleaford Mods are a laugh. Don't think they take themselves seriously enough to warrant the hate tbh.

My problem with them isn’t whether or not it’s tongue in cheek, ironic or whatever. I’m working class from Sheffield and grew up through the miners strike, so it ain’t a class issue either. They just sound dog awful and I wish they would shut the f**k up.
