Glastonbury 2024

[tommers]

Did Mike Skinner reach his flag? Was cut off on the BBC2 footage - very strange behavior!

Yes he did. Quite quickly.

 

[braindancer]

Yes he did. Quite quickly.

Pleased for him - was obviously very important to him....

Orbital Belfast

My outrage at brothers Hartnoll for the Mel C episode swiftly melted as as the opening, er, Chimes, of Chime came in

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Do Coldplay normally have a female member? I don't want to listen to it to work out if it's a special guest.

 

[Ax^]

baah to coldplay

I love Mel C, she's an old school raver and I don't think she's a tory like the other Spices. I heard a DJ set of hers a couple of years ago, was brilliant.

Outrage at it being way too cool?

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Jessie being amazing as expected.

 

[Hollis]

Coldplay are fucking awful...

 

[Ax^]

should of let the selford mods have the set

 

[spitfire]

I've banged on Coldplay for a bit, the drummer is IDLES bassist doppelganger which is weird.

They have written a couple of decent tunes but they don't really do it for me.

Posted this before but we put them on in Mass, about 50 people turned up. Promoter was really excited and said they were going to be huge, I just dismissed them as boring student indie rock.

I no longer work in the music business.

Chris whatsit did go up in my estimation when he let IDLES deepfake/use him in their video for Grace.

 

[Numbers]

should of let the selford mods have the set

They were brilliant as usual.

 

[Ax^]

seeming them take the full stage , would of been much more fun that coldplay

and aye always a great act to see live

 

[spitfire]

iPlayer is shite, I'm getting a black screen with a timer on it and the Starting Shortly for bands that I know are definitely on right now.

Last year it was absolutely bang on.

eta: seems to be on Apple TV, working on PS5

 

[plurker]

Wanted to watch the Streets and then Orbital on iplayer. No sign of either

 

[Numbers]

Jessie being amazing as expected.

She’s great, am loving her 2 dancers too.

The Streets were brilliant.

 

[plurker]

Wanted to watch the Streets and then Orbital on iplayer. No sign of either

Ah, Orbital are filed under "Extras" rather than "Dance".
The UX is dreadful...

 

[Numbers]

Her outfit is amazing.

 

[spitfire]

Peggy Gou just playing a DJ set with some dancers, not headline material.

Music is OK but just sounds like sets I'd play back in late 90s early 2000s.

 

[Elpenor]

Wanted to watch the Streets and then Orbital on iplayer. No sign of either

Go to iplayer and watch whatever stage they were on, then rewind to the start time

 

[shifting gears]

Outrage at it being way too cool?

No - it was guff

Sophie Ellis Bextor just turned up to inject some energy into what was a very lacklustre DJ set.

 

[Ax^]

they still going

hmm pineapple for stella post later

 

[tommers]

Shame, I was looking forward to seeing her.

 

[spitfire]

Right, I'm out.

Going over to The Boys.

 

[tommers]

Jessie Ware has this crowd in the palm of her hand.

 

[spitfire]

Shame, I was looking forward to seeing her.

She barely cracked a smile or a shimmy until SEB turned up. If you're going to do a DJ headline set you need to do more finger pointing and Fatboy Slim style nonsense or what's the point? You're on stage, that needs a performance. Or a planned show if you're not a natural performer. 3 dancers doesn't count.

If you're not into it then go and play at Block 9 or Glade and hide in the DJ booth. That's also fine!

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Jessie Ware has this crowd in the palm of her hand.

She totally killed it. When people stop debating fucking Coldplay, maybe there will be some discussion about the brilliance of Jessie Ware.

 

[Numbers]

Jessie Ware has this crowd in the palm of her hand.

She’s some singer.

We’re on delay, maybe 30 mins, loving her.
