I thought she was about to bring Sheeran out then I remembered she has much better taste than that

Not sure if this is tongue in cheek but she did bring him out at BST the other night haha

Back to the prodigy in time for breathe. Great stuff.

She did that on Friday so maybe not that much taste.....

Flicking through the channels I think this is a class line up. 
 

Rodrigo is doing a decent job as a safe headliner. Getting Robert Smith is unreal.

 

Prodigy have been class. Overmono looks incredible and reminds me of Bicep in 2022 in terms of the production. 
 

Maccabees and Jorja Smith both look like they’re having loads of fun too.

Insane set from progidy and the beebs have nailed it, every camera angle switch is coordinated with the track. Not sure if it's a good thing but I almost feel like I'm there 

100% agree 🙌

Fair play get the cure to do half your set to avoid the flat bits

[scaryclaireyfairy]

*happy sigh * That was lovely. Laughing that the seemingly outlandish rumours were true.

He did 2 songs though? Bit of an over exaggeration. 😄

[ICESTONE]

Is it really Firestarter without Keith, i don't know still a banger though.

[LinvoyPrimus]

f**king grim crowd for O-Rods. Lose their mind at her chatting about “loving English sport” but can’t bring themselves to make any sort of noise for *Robert Smith*.

[matrainertje]

That Olivia set looks cracking.

Seems like some of the older acts no longer get the reactions we are used to. Passing of time or different demographic at the festival now?

 

Not sure how it changes so much with the booking platform nowadays though!

Yeah f**k those 12 year olds for not knowing ol' Bob. I doubt they even have an opinion on whether Disintegration or Pornography is the best Cure album... losers.

At least show a basic level of respect?
 

I’ve stood in plenty of crowds and clapped for special guests I’ve no knowledge or sometimes affinity for.

Sorry but you're imagining things. Yes it was a muted cheer but there was a cheer.  There was also a huge cheer after each song. Believe me, pop fans cheer and are more positive than any other genre.

[Nickyboy]

Take it from an old git like me, O-Rod is a proper trooper. Few more appearances coming up I've no doubt.

It seems like a big part of it for teenage pop stans is to competitively belt out every single word to every single song of their fave’s hits- I guess they feel somewhat affronted and betrayed to be presented with any diversion from that in the form of songs that they might not even heard of before. Even if those songs were probably the best part of the set for the rest of us.

[Justcalledtosay]

Is she miming now?

[archiegow]

Been flicking over to O-Rod while catching up with the Maccabees (who have been excellent) and she's been a brilliant performer. Great to see her just get the festival and delivered a great set. Bringing out Robert Smith is a win in any book.

No. And I don't mean to point out you particularly but the amount of people looking to find something wrong with this set is a bit...odd

Livvy Rods kinda / sorta had to plead with them to make some noise for him though?

[Justcalledtosay]

I think it was necessary due to her being up the tower which is fair enough. She clearly hasn’t been miming for the rest of the performance. 
 

 

[nban2010]

However you slice that, she proved a worthy Pyramid headline slot, and maybe even one of the best among the last 6.

Music is subjective. Different strokes for different folks. Don’t worry about it.
