cant see a thread yet so might as well start one. been watching this afternoon and really impressed with Fat Dog, i realise ive actually seen them supporting Viagra Boys and enjoyed them but they werent heard of then.
wet leg didnt impress me much, bit boring. currently watching English Teacher, ive liked what ive heard of them so far.
what're your hits and misses?

Hmm, going to see them in Munich in November, hopefully on an indoor stage they're better...

Given I've bought tickets for them it's pretty clear I like them 🙂
Just finished so stuck BBC Glasto on the telly, just in time to catch end of Lewis Capaldi's set. Given his backstory it rapidly got very dusty here! Crowd seemed to giving him a lot of love and positive vibes, was great to see 😀 looking forward to Alanis shortly and Turnstile over the weekend. Right, where's my beer?!
Not seen any yet and off to pub shortly, but really looking forward to Self Esteem.
The CMAT set was good and quite bonkers. Looking forward to Wolf Alice and Snow Patrol on Sunday evening.
oh sees currently smashing it. love to see 2 drummers in sync.
Yep, just trying to get my 9yr old daughter into the osees, bit too much for her though! 🤓

Nowt I want to see on the “big” main stages except for kneecap, on the smaller stage I’ll try and see floating points, four tet, optimo, Marie Davidson, chaos in the CBD, Erol alkan, modeselektor, Antony szmierek.
Whether they’ll all be shown on the online feed is another matter
Lorde was a good opener this morning.
I enjoyed Wet Leg.
Alanis was irritating so I turned off half way through her set.
Blossoms have been my favourite so far.
Now watching English Teacher on BBC4.
Liked Wet Leg. Now enjoying BADBADNOTGOOD. Looking forward to Four Tet later.
Alanis was irritating so I turned off half….
It’s weird - I usually like quirky rocky female vocalists and she is intelligent, interesting to read and writes a reasonable tune buuut no, you’d have to pay me. I guess she appeals more to women, my wife saw her in Amsterdam this week and said she was amazing..
Personally Biffy effin Clyro are more my thing.
Daughter and me just watched Wunderhorse and enjoyed a lot.
Trying to watch Biffy… first song .. hm ok.. second ooh that’s good! 3rd one, ****in awful and had to turn it off, Weird 🤣
- Badbadnotgood too right awful and that drummer can't sing
Biffy were superb.
Busta Rhymes was good fun. Paunchy these days but still a big clown. After that i went for Denzel Curry but between him and Busta i started to tire of being told to put my mother****in hands in the air.
Caught a bit of Floating Points but functional club techno doesn't really work so well on tv!
And yes I had been looking forward to BadBadNotGood too, but switched over to them, saw about 30 seconds of milquetoast noodly jazz suede loafer yacht rock and went straight back to Busta instead!
Tired: yacht rock
Wired: wearing a gold chain so enormous you could use it to moor an actual yacht
Never really got them before, but the Blossoms set was good.
1975s - okay, but really, really not headliners. Mid-afternoon at best.
Apparently he’s the best song-writer ever.
err, has he seen who’s headling tomorrow?
Been watching some bits on BBC2/iplayer. Currently watching Fatdog loving the energy they're bringing, will deffo try catch them at rock and roll circus! Looking forward to Prodigy on Sunday too.
Watched Wunderhorse earlier - pretty impressed, and now watching Loyle Carner, very chill...
....I've been educated by my 18yr old who is out partying post exams
I am enjoying Loyle Carner very much.
Gracie Abrahams is on catch up on the other stage. Nice to have an act that can actually sing. Fantastic voice.
Loyle Carner is being brilliant. I’m pleased for him that he’s getting this headline. Always comes across as a good guy. His performance is just great.
Wet leg and English teacher.
Both fantastic.
+1 for Wet Leg, they look like they're enjoying their musical fame / makes me jealous I was never in a band at that age.
the 1975 sound like Butlins.

I consider them more “Pontins”, as dull as watching beige emulsion paint dry on a hospital waiting room wall
Quite enjoyed Alanis’ actual performance, but what the flipping heck was the 5 min of intro video of self promotion before she walked on. I thought she was more switched on than that.
Self Esteem - I just love her so much. Absolute perfection. Yes, I am a total 6music Dad.
1975 - I’ve kinda been blissfully unaware of them, other than seeing the occasional thing that would suggest Mr lead singer thinks he is the coolest man on earth. Was therefore expecting something a bit edgy - hell no, turns out it’s the blandest, luke warm, lightweight shite imaginable.
Also enjoyed Wet Leg, Franz F, Maribuo State & Four Tet.
I'm just curious, how much does a pint of beer in a plastic cup cost there, these days?

Exactly the amount you’d expect it to. The amount that sends the Daily Mail into a froth, but is totally standard for any event in 2025.

About a fiver, then? that's not too bad, considering the price of the tickets.
Whoops!
I wasn’t listening to the 1975, but Kylie😂😂😂
It went from Alex Holcombe announcing the 1975 on stage, to kylie.
Now that I’m listening to the 1975, they sound like fairly accomplished musicians. Albeit, a touch lightweight.
Still, their oeuvre is within the realms of blue-eyed soul, and the sax is reminiscent of Spandeau Ballet.
wow, self esteem! how good was that!!
heard her before on 6 music and thought meh, but just caught last nights set and she was captivating, i couldnt take my eyes off the whole show.
Spent the evening with BlueSky and the #Glastonbury feed. Biffy Clyro's tribute to Brian Wilson was touching. Lewis Capaldi on catch-up was heart-warming lots of love and support for him.
Any one else seeing his relative on with Franz Ferdinand think Maxx Headroom?
Lad summed up the 1975 the other night - "He originally claimed to be from Manchester, but it was actually Wilmslow" 🙂

out of touch 6 music (grand)dad here..... i know blue sky is the alternative to mr musk, but what do you get with the glasto feed? is it just something on your phone or can you stream sets that BBC arent showing to your tv?
EDIT: whats wrong with dialect/slang? had 's u m m a t' autocorrected to 'something' for some reason....
Thought the 1975 sounded like if an inxs covers band and maroon 5 had a love child
Anyone know where the four tet set is on iPlayer?

I assume he means just monitoring the chat to see what people are saying about what's going on.

It's really seeing her perform live that makes it click. I'm a rabid fan, but that came from seeing her at a festival a few years ago.
Also really enjoyed Self-Esteem. I didn’t realise she sang so much 😂. The whole set up worked really well - like choreography without looking too choreographed.
