[Music] Glastonbury 2024

[Wozza]

Seems @dwayne has a gig writing for the Metro

I went to Glastonbury and discovered it's just really overrated

Glastonbury sticks in my head as one of the more challenging and stressful experiences.

Funny you say that, because this is what the author looks like on ‘competition days’…

Anyone saying Coldplay are shit are a bit silly really after last night. Rave reviews across the board

For some bizarre reason it's fashionable to hate cold play.
Yet other acts, far less talented are
accepted as "brilliant "

I fully accept that they are popular, but I simply find their music very bland. Nothing to actually 'hate' but equally nothing to get excited about.
They did put on a good show, though, but I would never listen to them at home.

Think I spotted @Herr Tubthumper with his grandpa mates in the background of this one....

Not ashamed to say there's a couple of Coldplay songs that make me cry Every Damn Time. For deeply personal reasons. God bless Chris Martin and his Coldplayblokes who all look like the other Brewdog guy. You'd probably be hard pushed to pick them out of a police line-up. You'd probably pick @jackalbion.

Gorgeous set BTW

Very St Tropez, which is where @dwayne has just been.

Justice is going to be LOUD if anyone is still wondering what to do tonight. Soundcheck was full on.

I finish my shift at 8, then it’s Nia Archives, Bob Vylan and Justice. My ears will be bleeding.

We’ll chill a bit with Daniel Avery after this, then the staff party. See you there, @The Fits.

Most heavy metal is better in an arena

Especially if you have the good fortune not to be in it at the same time.

Happy to be shot down (again), but is Shania Twain sounding awful? Also, should she really be a 'legend'?
(I still would, though...all things considered.)

 

[Flounce]

f*** me Shania Twain is awful, has her voice gone?

Getting slightly better on that song

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

@dwayne has been spotted in the dance tent

Its definitely got better - was VERY ropey to start with.

Not going to beat the iconic Dolly Parton in this slot though.

It's not good, is it?

Kylie blew it out the water.

Her set is still available on YouTube for those who haven’t seen it and want to watch a masterclass in how to absolutely smash the Legends slot.

Fair enough but that wasn't my point

Just watched James and noticed the bloke I usually see in the pub was playing lead guitar

Dua Lipa a case in point.

Really doesn't sound great although I've just read about her contracting Lyme Disease some years ago which affected her vocal cords. Lyme Disease can be devastating.

I personally know a German lady athlete that ran the Marathon des Sables 13 times including winning the female race one year. She then contracted LD which left her with a disability and she had to give up running. She took up rowing as a disabled athlete and I saw her win a silver medal at London 2012 Paralympics.

So maybe that explains things a bit for Shania Twain's voice ... I don't know.

Shania Twain Reveals That Lyme Disease Almost Ended Her Music Career

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Jesus Christ lads, if Shania Twain isn't up to much surely, someone, anyone, should be putting away the "It don't impress me much" line

 

[birthofanorange]

I'd be interested in folk's opinion as to who could do the 'legends' slot justice anymore? We've lost so many and a lot are way past it.
Has to be a solo performer, rather than a band, and I'm genuinely struggling to think of anyone.
