villa4europe Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Reading has an awful line up too As much as people say it's not about the music blah blah it still helps! I would be all over tame impala, to be fair to him it looked like stormzy put a show on, well thought out and high production values...the problem is he has to do that because he hasn't got the music...Not saying he's shit or anything (not really my thing) But he released a 2nd album 2 weeks ago I think? Has anyone headlined glasto based on that little material? I think it's more a headline grabbing culturally significant event for people to bandwagon and that's the reason for me Glastonbury will be a little off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 (edited) They had 2 albums and an EP at that stage And to be fair the first album was the fastest selling debut album of all time, stormzys first album sold just over 300k copies, AM sold over 350k copies in the opening week Edited June 29, 2019 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted June 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2019 Kylie, sorry, don't get the point any more. Fun pop shit isn't my bag anyway but why does she have a mime artist on stage that has ripped off a very well known act from days of old. It's just a blatent image theft (for no particular reason) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2019 And then she goes and brings out Nick Cave... and I can dislike it no more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2019 And then she brings out Chris Martin and I suspect people think she's smashing it. I tried looking at the other stages, shit, shit and not allowed to broadcast (whoever that was) plus coming up. Had to go back to kylie. Fat White Family next for me I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2019 Fat White Family already more entertaining than Kylie (or most things I've seen so far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 See, I know I will think Kylie is shite, so what I do, is I don't watch it. Why sit through something you know you're not going to like? Pretty much the reason I haven't turned on Glasto in years to be fair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you should always experience things outside your comfort zone. Where the Wild Roses Grow was a good enough reason anyway But anyway from what I've watched so far, Low is the highlight followed by Fat White Family who I wouldn't say I was a complete fan of but that just an indication of how bad most of this line up is Even the stuff I've watched on the John Peel stage has been rather poor so far (except for Low) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted June 30, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 30, 2019 The Cure are literally the first bit of Glastonbury I've bothered watching this year. Take away so far, Robert Smith is aged very badly for 20 years and then seems to have got locked in a timeloop. And the bass seems far more noticeably twangly and higher than usual.

tonyh29 Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 The cure has persuaded me to break my Glastonbury duck , smith look like the love child of Pat Butcher and Marcel Marceau good as the cure are , the cameraman showing people in the audience has my swear filter going into over drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
