Glastonbury 2019

[Johnny Vodka]

Mike Skinner already killing it.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Vampire Weekend are dull as.

 

[Doctor Carrot]

Fuck! Smith's voice is still sounding marvellous.

 

[Maggot]

That's enough shots of Simon Gallup's crotch.

 

[Smangus]

Fuck! Smith's voice is still sounding marvellous.

Must admit I am pleasantly surprised how good they are sounding , enjoying the set so far.

 

[Voley]

The Cure are fucking brilliant.

 

[gosub]

The Cure are fucking brilliant.

R Smith's voice has held up remarkably well over years. And Morrissey he is not.

 

[binka]

I've never really listened to the cure before and reckon I could name three of their songs at a push but I agree with Voley they sound fucking brilliant

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Flipped over to sample Christine & the Queens briefly. Seems good.

 

[tommers]

Seen em twice in the last two years. Been great both times.

Hadn't seen em for almost thirty years before that. When they opened with Plainsong it was so beautiful I cried.

I mean, I wasn't blubbing uncontrollably or anything. A single manly tear.


Other times I have cried include after coming back from Glastonbury in 2003. I watched a documentary about Socrates. Just burst into tears thinking about it whilst opening the fridge to get some milk.

 

[colacubes]

I have been literally sobbing since Love Song

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

The Cure - and The Fall similarly - are a band I loved as a teenager, but can go years without listening to nowadays. And then I'll hear something and it's straight back to obsession and the delighted re acquaintance with an old friend.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

I have been literally sobbing since Love Song

((colacubes ))
It's a great song

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

I once had this playing on my Walkman when genuinely lost in a forest. I mean, I wasn't lost for long, just a bit pissed and stoned and took the wrong path. No search parties were needed!

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Few minutes of The Cure before bed...

 

[Doctor Carrot]

I too have cried a solitary tear or two watching the cure.

 

[Doctor Carrot]

The Cure are fucking brilliant.

They really are! So, so many great songs! I've got it up full whack

 

[Ax^]

did they play burn



missed about the 40 mins

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

did they play burn

Yep, early on.

 

[wiskey]

janelle monae has just won Glastonbury!

 

[ricbake]

Watching The Streets - They are brilliant! Seem to be owning it!

 

[Ax^]

Yep, early on.

will have to rewatch the whole thing

 

[Maggot]

Billy Childish has changed a lot!

 

[8ball]

Finishing on Boys Don’t Cry.

First Cure song I heard - remember seeing it on TOTP with my Nan.

“Is that a boy or a girl?”

 

[Doctor Carrot]

That song sounds like it could've been written this year. It never seems to age for me and yet it was released before I was born.

 

[Ax^]

Finishing on Boys Don’t Cry.

“Is that a boy or a girl?”

kinda hints why the cure are such a good band ..

I was 2 when that song was released

edit to add** looking it up minus 3

 

[8ball]

Making me feel really old now.

 

[Maggot]

The reason Mavis Staples is wearing a Glastonbury T shirt is cos her airline lost her luggage.

 

[Ax^]

sorry but the guy still got a good voice from preforming for over 40 years

and still being a bit of a cult band that is still kick and people of many ages will recognise the music

True pioneers of alternative music

 

[circleline]

Fucking loving Robert and the sheer musicianship of The Cure..

Liked Kylie's brilliant backing dancers..
