[Closed] Glastonbury coverage thread

Nice weather ! Who's this on now? (Pyramid)

The drummer seems to have got hair dye on his face when touching up the beards.

I only like concerts in the dark, but there's s certain magic when you get that sunset/twilight combo at Glastonbury

I'm a big fan but this is a bit underwhelming.

edit: ZZ Top I mean.

edit: so far.

edit: hang on, my toes are starting to twitch.

That goes for all outdoor gigs, but agreed.

@ plop.

Well I'm coming from the other direction, so we've probably hit on the same conclusion 😆

They messed up there lol.

Are you F------kin READY?

zed zed top on in the background

they are a bit sloppy, tbh.

White Denim on the red button. Awesome as always.

I'm watching live on iplayer?

But don't know who they are???

Got to say I'm liking Foals...

I'm now watching The Blossoms from earlier.

#is good#

Loved ZZtop and the Foals are rather good 😀

ZZ Top were rifftastic, as expected. Dusty is recovering from a shoulder injury, and so having trouble with his bass.

The Reverend Willy G still turns out some superb guitar work, and that guitar he was playing was stunning!

Got Muse set to record to watch later on as well.

Ah! That explains it.

Yep, he can play some, but not all of a gig, so he's got a custom bass keyboard set up. Complete with keyring!

Been watching the red button. Some funky Russians with the lead singer from The Fine Young Cannibals on vocals.

underworld on atm.

MUSE time

Muse doing the headline spot proud. Amazing how good they sound live.

Got Muse set to record to watch later on as well.

Brilliant throughout the early-mid naughties, then turned to sh1t IMO.

Was a big fan 10 years ago.

I like their jackets

Are Muse like a modern prog rock band?

only put it on for hysteria

Matt Bellamy is one hell of a guitarist

Are Muse like a modern prog rock band?

Yes.

And that's a good thing! Watching live and it's gooooood.

Are Muse like a modern prog rock band?

They don't contain quite as much ****ery as the classic prog bands, or even modern bands, such as Tool, but you could probably describe them as a commercial prog band.

Commercial Prog Rock with good jackets

I liked that Christine & the Queens woman gyrating on the grass.
But that reggae band? What was the point in that? It's like a rock band coming on and playing Bill Haley covers. ugh.
(that's all I've seen of it btw)

James were spot on too.

He's gone a bit Freddie Mercury now

Nowt wrong with that.

Never heard of them but caught last 2 songs on iplayer - was captivated, they are something special I'm quite gobsmacked by it! Underworld atm, making me smile a lot. Karl's in fine voice.

Riffing on the Zep! Awesome

Always been a bit of Queen in the newer Muse stuff. Not necessarily a bad thing, but I do prefer the earlier work. As said before, Bellamy is a quite astonishing guitarist at times, especially considering he sings too.

They sound HUGE.

Thanks for the tip on Underworld, I was waiting for them to come on scheduled TV after Muse. Cannot wait to see them at the end of July. Glad you liked White Denim.

The Kaoss Pad is out!

Not my cup of tea but that George Garrett(?) is a very talented fella. Similarly, not my usual, but Roisin Murphy had a certain, if nuts, presence

Nowt wrong with that

Savages were amazing.

God I hate Muse. So pompous. Horrible.

Muse + Zep = YES!

Thank god Muse are over. Soulless. Looking forward to Underworld. Wonder if Mmm Skyscraper is part of their live set.
