Pilton...I mean Glasto' Festival

Homegrove

alistair the double whammy of Holy Fire and What Went Down I guess kept me expecting more of the same calibre of songwriting. It’s ok to change your sound, but the tunes are not there anymore.

Cankles-McJeggings

Millsy

Same 🤮 absolute shite for hipster wankers. (sorry hipster wankers )

Regarding Bicep, who’s gig was indeed fucking amazing, my boy made a similar comment to what Alistair said, ‘ Why is there no one on stage?’
Did seem a bit odd that 80 odd thousand people were stood watching what was essentially a fancy light show. Underworld and the chems far more engaging.

Really? Did you see how big the Sam fender crowd was ? Same stage wasnt he and it looked like there was a million people going off their tits to a current artist, not some old cunt pissing into a bag with his mates.

Macca was dogshite, but what do you expect from an 80 year old (not disrespecting his legacy)? I’ll carry on waiting for Slipknot. Then I’ll see you fuckers down the front!

Dan

My heart would’ve sunk if I’d gone and heard this bollocks whilst off my chops.

Cankles-McJeggings

Lolz never bothered listening to that in detail before but the lyrics are like something a child would write. Think it’s safe to say he used up all his good ideas prior. Then along came the frog song .

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 😉

😆 Nice one.

Great DJ. Technically up there with the best of them. I’ve seen recent clips of her using 2 mixers. The nutbag.

Along_the_Wire

nicksneddon Block 9 was absolutely brilliant - Groove Armada DJ at Maceo’s and were absolutely brilliant. Atmosphere and crowd were superb

nicksneddon

Along_the_Wire Fantastic stuff – love how you were doubtful to go till recently and ended up in block9!

Along_the_Wire

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.

zackster

Along_the_Wire how was Blawan and Overmono?

Amps

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:

hugopal

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.

Cankles-McJeggings

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.

Along_the_Wire

zackster I didn’t see them. There’s an awful lot on you see.

Heno

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

Along_the_Wire

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

Along_the_Wire

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.
