I think i'm in the minority here with the dislike for Metallica, just me a deadlydarcy eh?. i'm back watching Goldfrapp - an amazing set by the band and Alison's voice is astounding!.
Liking Metallica but thought Lana Del Ray was astonishing earlier. Beautifully haunting.
Unforgiven -awesome
The mighty het does look a bit like Ricky Gervais without the tash though
Trying to watch Metallica with an open mind, but seriously.... What a truly uninspiring dirge. Dull. Boring.
I suspect this makes me a hippy. Not sure how I feel about that. Shall I grow a beard?
Let's hope tomorrow's attempt to sit through Dolly Parton goes better. Giving up on this and watching Jack White on catch up instead.
Hope all metal fans enjoy it though. Fair enough to give me the headline slot, but isn't there a younger metal band that could have done it?
I'm also a maybe for Metallica, they passed me by the first time and the second pass is not floating my boat. The band don't seem to like each other!
I saw RHCP in Ipswich and this reminds me of them. Another day at the office, though with a bit more of an effort with the crowd.
Don't get me wrong, they're putting on a show and I get that people are liking it and I admire Glastonberry for getting stuff like this in. But it's all a bit Spinal Tap isn't it? 🙂
Oh yeah, forgot Goldfrapp were on tonight. Looks like I'll be watching that next, assuming it's online.

No one else has the gravitas. Now be a good boy and go listen the sum41 😉
my telly only goes up to 10 on the volume 🙁
Hmmm too many slow ones so far, I did miss the beginning but i reckon they should just play kill em all from start to finish 😈
I imagine that when they close with One there will be some good fireworks
Meh(tallica).
Can't argue with the musicianship, but I'm unmoved somehow.
Want to cringe my own skin off when Hetfield opens his gob between songs.

Can't think of any younger bands with the same legacy. The only alternative I guess would be Iron Maiden and their around they same age.
Good show so far, lose the on stage fans and the "hippy" speeches and we're there.
And play one and master of puppets
Edit: my wish, their command \m/
Goldfrapp on the west holts stage from 20.30 to 21.30, you'll find it [url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/events/errnc8 ]here[/url] . Audibly and musically as good live as their studio albums.
Cheers somafunk
Given that no one who bought a ticket at the start knew Metallica were playing tonight, they've got one hell of an audience sing-along going on. Every word and every note. Shame Glastonbury have apparently banned pyrotechnics, "One" doesn't seem quite the same without the smell of cordite in the air! 8)
As for the spinal tap references, its worth watching Some Kind Of Monster documentary it is spinal tap for real but with more focus on alcoholism
i bet that is flippin loud!
This is better, now we need creeping death,
agree rocketdog, best appreciated in the most pit
I demand battery!!!
This is better, now we need creeping death
Hows about a bit of 'So What', just to upset the BBC? 😈
This is better, now we need creeping death
wasn't that the opening song?
agree rocketdog, best appreciated in the most pit
i love it when its so loud it seems to constrict your lungs and it feels difficult to breathe
I want the covers - am I evil, whiskey in the jar and maybe something new, perhaps maiden's running free. 'Tis a festival after all
Took a while to get going but Metallica still do have something.....but I get the feeling some of the on stage 'fans' would rather be making daisy chains.

Astonishingly poor and out of tune perhaps. I would be haunted if I has paid money to watch that.
Good legs though.
Jake Bugg still sounds like George Formby
Prefer them to do their rcover of Maidens Prowler

+1
Seen her live. Awful. Great pins.
Lighters aloft time!
Just need Seek and Destroy plus Enter Sandman
It's Metallica, shouldn't it be flame throwers?
How dare they tease with the beginning of "Welcome Home...". Oh, well.
Oh well, I guess it was predictable that they play Nothing Else Matters. They peaked at Master of Puppets IMO
Ninfan so what would be sublime
(Also thought Lana del ray sounded very poor, had heard her single on the radio half an hour earlier and what a difference)
A cover of Bad News "warriors of ghengis khan" tribute to Rick would be awesome....
+1 on Lanas pins
Gurning from Haim 🙂
and...enter sandman.... yeaaaahhhh
Have the beeb changed their website set up? Earlier on there was a list of bands and you could click on which one you wanted to see. Can't find that format now.
pyrotechnics are banned
the Glasto H&S nazis would have kittens if Rammstein turned up
motorhead t-shirt in the Mett's stage groupies 🙂

Would be fantastic though \m/
Lemmy should headline next year 🙂
with Hawkwind in support
Lemmy I would stay up for, but Metallica are sending me to never never land (igmc)
oh yes, here's the covers.
Whiskey!
yeah thin lizzy cover....
So would Rammstein set the whole stage on fire you reckon ? sounds exciting
Lemmy comes on for Overkill?
Or Ozzy for Sabbra Caddabra?
seek and destroy
