Good Jebus, there's some band doing a Springsteen cover now who look like it's the first song they've played at a gig ever - cuckijng shocking

 

[aoboa]

Right Fleet Foxes are on, I'm off to bed.

Worst. Band Ever.

The Friendly Fires are like a bad ABC tribute band.

It's shocking cos Bloc Party actually sound dangerously contemporary compared to these 2 and the 2 I mentioned earlier. WTF!!

 

[Stan Bowles]

White Lies absolutely butchering Dancing In The Dark. I think the world is starting to pass me by.

I turned off after about twenty seconds of Friendly Fires, mumbling to herself about the young folk. Being old is great.

What we need is Steven Wells to write a daily Glastonbury critique somewhere. Oh wait...

 

[Stan Bowles]

Actually the trendy haircut bands weren't the worst, did you hear Paulo Nutini pretending to be Benny Hill doing a West Indian interpretation of Bob Dylan? Just wrong in every single way.

was nice to see someone holding up a picture of Barry in the crowd. It's what he would have wanted.

Also, Lilly Allen was amazing, as was Neilo but thankfully HIS tits weren't nearly falling out. Lady Gaga ruled too imho.

/Commence rant/

BBC's coverage is always more about the presenters then the music which makes no sense seeing as the quality of presenters that they have (Mark Radcliffe aside) is god awful. Edith bowman and the lad she was presenting with didn't seem to have a clue what was going on, Lauren Laverne and her funny voices annoy the shit out of me and Jo Wiley seemed more impresed with the set then anything else going on at the festival.

Neil Young was the headliner on the main stage and basically does a greatest hits set and they show 4 songs, the cunting Tings Tings have one album (I think), all their songs sound the same and are shit and they get a full live 45 minute set?!?!?

Anyways Neil Young rocked more then any of the younglings there, Bloc party ran him close though and The Specials were amazing, BBC 4 actually showed all of their set last night which was an unexpected delight.

Lily Allen looked dreadful. That tan! That catsuit!

 

[Jerry Twig]

I hate both those acts.

at what point does a 'band' become an 'act'? and where do 'groups' fit in?

 

[Gambra]

Lily Allen's catsuit. I still don't know what to think of it. Part of me wants it to go in the Horn For.. thread and the other wants to claw my eyes out.

A reasonable compromise would be to close your eyes and claw at your horn

 

[chutneyfarmer]

Vinnie for president!

Eh? you'd make a crap boy, sorry

 

[Kermit McDermott]

I just watched the Script on BBC2. Not my cupa taaaaa but they performed well. Impressed with the drummer, really nice touch on the kit.

 

[Gambra]

Spinal Tap! Class.

 

[Gambra]

Bloc Party on the Red Button aren't bad.

I think you must be in the wrong forum.

come off it

 

[Vinnie]

I thought that catsuit looked like something out of a country & irish soft porn

 

[jonah]

I thought she was a bit of a hotmess. But in general, I think Lily is a bit of alright, I must say.
