Glastonbury 2023

[Mr.Bishie]

When she started singing I was a bit "Oh" but then the energy and in your faceness won me over!

Same, it did warm up as she went on.

 

[Voley]

Maybe LDR shouldn't have spent so long getting her hair done.

Anyone know what the story behind her being late was then? I'm assuming the hair thing was just a joke, surely?

 

[Petcha]

Cat Stevens is a little painful to watch. For everyone.

Apparently not!

 

[Sasaferrato]

i read about Lewis Capaldi got a bit teary then had a full on cry when I watched him. Hope he can have a rest & have some peace now.

I watched Lizzo with my partner who I invited to come with when I saw her in March & he declined but regrets it now.

Looking forward to Elton later.

Very much so.

I must disagree in the strongest possible terms.

 

[Petcha]

So Elton's apparently got 4 special guests lined up. Britney rumoured

I thought it was true. Music acts are often late - I've been to tons of shows where there's been a delay, often much longer than 30mins. Lana wanted her hair to be perfect, obvs . Watching the only video of her performance on iPlayer it did look like she was struggling a bit with the hair piece.

She's always late apparently. Causes no end of grief for fans at stadium gigs that run late who then can't get home.

I get that her whole thing is that she's a self-indulgent artsy waif but you've still got to show some respect to the people who pay your wages. I love her music but no way would I bother to see her in person.

Eminem maybe

No doubt Grohl will be one, or 2 of them.

 

[Voley]

Does strike me as disrespectful to her fans if she didn't have a decent reason for it. I mean, Axl bloody Rose isn't exactly known for his punctuality but even he was on time for this.

 

[Petcha]

No doubt Grohl will be one, or 2 of them.

That goes without saying. Probably with his extended family. But I'd fucking love Eminem to appear.

Macca's there on site so he's definitely gonna be one of them.

 

[chainsawjob]

We did Sock Wrestling. I lost

Pensioners bus pass helps

If I was him I wouldn't be wanting a headline slot, I'd be asking for the Sunday afternoon slot so I'd have time for a cup of tea and a nice sit down.

 

[Petcha]

Elton John's gig, his final ever UK gig, with special guests, is gonna be camper than any Eurovision ever. I cannot fucking wait.

 

[Ranbay]

Britney init ?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Britney init ?

She's been spotted at Bristol Airport apparently!!

 

[pbsmooth]

Is it his final ever UK gig the way Orbital do final ever UK gigs? Probably.

 

[Ranbay]

I know why they are back on tour and how much one of them needs now after Thursday night LOL

 

[braindancer]

Going to give Slowdive a watch on iplayer, on Woodsies at 5 [ie now].

Connected my telly to the stereo and cracked it right up - lovely stuff... though vocals not always sounding quite as sweet as the music.

Loved the extended version of new single 'kisses' - sounded absolutely glorious.

I saw their last ever gig at Glasto about 10 years ago. Don't tell me they did another one? I spent a lot of money on drugs.

 

[neonwilderness]

Enjoying Los Bitchos at the moment

Need something else to stick on before Elton, maybe The Comet Is Coming

Ezra Collective if you’ve not seen them yet.

 

[Numbers]

Barrington wants longer than his slot

Tbf he’s only getting warmed up.

 

[Petcha]

Is there anything worse for any audience at the Pyramid at Glasto waiting for Elton John on a Sunday evening than hearing Cat Stevens saying 'this is another new one'

 

[Sweet FA]

How does the zoning thing work at the Pyramid? I guess people are there very early doors? What about if you need a piss or more lager etc - can you get back in again?

I was surprised when they said it was the first time they'd played Glastonbury.

 

[AverageJoe]

I'm sittingg through Cat Stevens.

Glastonbury has gone wrong hasn't it?

An artist who's done literally nothing for years enjoying a crowd this size - of which 90% don't care or don't know his songs...

But its Elton on later and might bring Taron Egerton, Britney and Dave Grohl! We need our space! I'll wee here! I'll selfie, and Tik Tok to pass the time.

It's all changed. Go to other stages, find something you have never seen before, have experiences, musically or not.

And then head over to see the bands you want to see. And then squeeze through until you can see.

Fucks sake.

(I am old btw)
