Spent an hour waiting for Olivia Rodrigo’s left nipple to pop out last night. Massive let down when it didn’t.

Bet Granto was in the crowd with his false hands 🙌

    Would love to book Aki for the JC tent. All you would need are a couple of yoga mats. I’m terms of set listings I’d put him on just before Dave on the Sunday afternoon slot.

      erik could spot that place from a mile off on an evening with that lazer light on the roof!

      Phil-McRackin I know dance music isn’t meant to be fun I watched Confidence Man on the iPlayer this morning and thought they were Bonza

      The production is polished but their vocals suck.

      Jules72 Billie Eilish though - incredible performance… and great dark pop music

      Lol, she’s about as dark as a kid’s halloween costume.

        hugopal I dunno, Hugo. A witches cape can be very dark. A Mike Myers outfit is dark as fuck too, in fact, the only thing that would give you away when looking in someone’s window would be the mask.

        Middle aged blokes discussing the merits or Billie Eilish 😂My daughter and her mates think she’s great and who am I to argue

          …Diana Ross’s voice is completely shot, unlistenable.

            Unbroken1 was just at her was complete garbage! Was a great few days overall, only thing I found was the sound at times at a few stages wasn’t great, Caribou the sound completely went! Digweed was no way near loud enough, Imogen and Blawen in the temple was really good took no prisoners, still the best party going ! Just really felt my age! Enjoying my pints of Guinness in the airport now

              Watching Little Dragon….also shite.

              Herbie Hancock major improvement.

              Heno shame that the sound was shit. Which airport are you in? Didn’t think there where any around that way?

                alistair …summarised perfectly by a tweet just below that one:

                Singers. Singing in tune. That’s important

                • Dan replied to this.

                  Fontaines DC were very good (set on iplayer). Seems like the sound on the other stages is much better than the Pyramid.

                  Heno Blawen

                  Blawan

                  Heno was really good took no prisoners, still the best party going

                  what a surprise, pretty much the only proper techno act on the bill is the only decent show

                  • Heno replied to this.

                    Dan she’s 78 and the definitive Motown female star. She’s not auditioning for X Factor

                      Kendrick Lamar worthy of the headliner billing. Bitch don’t kill my vibe sounding fierce

                      alistair …Macca’s 80 and can still hold a note.

                      I like Diana Ross, was looking forward to her set, but whether she’s ‘the definitive Motown star’ or not, it’s not inaccurate to say her voice is shot. Thankfully, her backing singers and the crowd knew the tunes, so, hey ho…

                        Echo Saw them at Brixton last year. Beats kicked more live than on their albums and light show was nearly as good as the Chems. Atlas and Apricots were highlights

                        Unbroken1 sure, it was far from vintage but it was fun and she looks and moves great for 78. I had more of a problem with her set list. When you have a back catalogue as good as hers why play any covers

                        …honesty couldn’t get past the voice for long enough to assess the song choices. The crucifixion of ‘Love Hangover’ ended it for me.

                        I think most people will forgive a song in a different key or letting backing singers pick up a high note when performers reach a certain age, but as a legendary soul singer you are really exposed when you can’t carry the tune.

                        hugopal typo ! Wrecked tired, was loads other good shit on to, Pyramid stage isn’t great but the rest more then makes up for it

                        alistair

                        Doesn’t sound like she brought joy to anywhere near 100 thousand people according to the Twitter feeds of many attendees.

                          I saw the clip on the news of her and McCartney and Grohl and was just thankful id avoided the whole cringe fest.
