Glastonbury ... from the comfort of your sofa

[WATFORD zero]

Like this new Weller stuff

Don't like acoustic screens, it's a live gig not a studio FFS

 

[Hampster Gull]

Not really enjoying Weller

 

[Hampster Gull]

Now looking forward to The Who

 

[WATFORD zero]

Charlie Watts certainly uses drum screens these days. It's fair to say they're not commonly used for gigs though.

Only so he can see the set list

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Start!, Peacock & Malice to come hopefully

Blimey, they're not taking any chances are they: twice and in big letters. What are the letters in brackets for?

The key they are playing it in.

Presumably the key they are playing that song in. About as much use to a drummer as the...(insert lame Albion related comment here)

Please can somebody answer this, I'm intrigued.

Bloody good though is old Lionel.

Helps with onstage levels, particularly in smaller gigs where the drums are loud on stage so everyone else turns up which means the stage levels are higher than front of house. Even using in ear monitors it can be a problem. A sound engineer may also prefer the sound of the drum mics when they are contained like this. Unusual for such a big stage though.

Death Cab for Cutie on the Peel stage are good

 

[Quinney]

Never did like The Fall

 

[Machiavelli]

Never did like The Fall

They're magic. Really enjoying this.

Enjoying Lianne La Havas, mellow for a Sunday eve

Anyone know why The Who are on TV so much later than the actual stage time?

Work Monday is haunting me!

 

[VAL1850]

Christ how MOR has Glastonbury become?. This is painful, massive crowd looking very disinterested.

Maybe it will improve with some Commodores material...

Can only agree with this - Glastonbury overall this yearhas been totally uninspiring - Not many up and comming bands that have turned my head feeling "must look out from them" too many average bands, too many TOTP style sets as before it was taken off air and too many oldies claiming one more piece of stardom

Looking forward to the Who but even they are well past their sell by date

Jamie T utter class again (as always)

Mrs is watching some detective crap on ITV so I thought I'd watch The Who online only to find out you can't watch it live but have to wait until 22:40 the same as the TV coverage.

Caught her last track. She's good.
