  • Pilton...I mean Glasto' Festival

alistair I wasted 90 minutes of that festival and more because I had to get there and get back - absolute tripe and an insult to the crowd.

    Foals were Shite
    Idles, Fontaines, Bicep, Four Tet, Sleaford Mods, Avalon Emerson, Digweed, LTJ Bukem all smashed it. Sasha was very good, John Monkman was ace. Joy Orbison was pretty good too.
    Hospitality looked horrific, full of stockbroker types who probably worked in the music biz, all looked very depressed and probably hadn’t had a non - chemically induced erection since streaming took over from CDs.
    Best vibe was at the couple of ‘secret afters’ I attended at the production camping areas. Totally twat free zones except for the couple of pricks we let in from hospitality because they had loads of Boutros. After they had been rinsed we kicked them out though.
    Great Festival!!
    Easily the best bit was my hypnotic techno set in the Teepee field on Wednesday Night. Job done 😉

      ArchimedesQ Totally twat free zones except for the couple of pricks we let in from hospitality because they had loads of Boutros. After they had been rinsed we kicked them out though.

      😆 Nice one.

        Foals we’re okay, but only realised I’d missed Paul Heaton after - he did The Housemartins and Beautiful South stuff and was meant to have been brilliant.

        Pet Shop Boys were absolutely fucking fantastic. Couldn’t get into Arcadia to see Daniel Avery after, they stopped people going in as it was too full - mind you, it sounded like a bit of a racket.

          Smallman1 Got into an argument with some cunt who wanted to put dairy free butter in my sausage and egg bap (not a euphemism) Had to verbally dismantle him in front of his colleagues and a huge queue, if he was saw me in Tooting he would definitely punch / strangle me.

          Ed gets into a brawl with some teenager working on his mates mates stall for a free ticket:

            Smallman1 This sounded great -

            Yeah I’ve said on here before that ‘My Number’ was the last decent song they made - and it was 9 years ago.

              Everyone banging on about Billie Irish, as my lad calls her, but having seen the footage I soon realised she was fucking miming to a ridiculously large amount of it. How’s that even allowed?
              Mic is nowhere near her mouth even.

              nicksneddon yeah, only got the green light Thursday night - can’t imagine missing that and watching it in the tele.

                zackster savage took the roof of the temple! Imogen was really good before, going to Digweed after I felt the sound was too low didn’t like how they moved the glade, taught the sound at a few stages was hit and miss, Roisin Murphy was brilliant

                    So my key take away. Everyone goes to Glasto and comes back raving about…..Roisin Murphy.

                    You’re really witnesses to a piece of history there chaps lol.

                      Just reading the Glasnost thread over in 365 – some guy on there said he attached a ring doorbell to his tent, cant workout if hes serious or not

                        Heno that and buttergate with Ed

                        The guy who I dismantled will be absolutely FEWMIN still.

                        You play with fire, you get burned!

                          Heno yeah, sound was too low at Diggers - there were hardly any people there though, so easy to move nearer the sound system. Spotted Jack Whitehall there, the unfunny cunt that he is.
