ELO smashing it
Yeah, i'm rather enjoying them. Also, I know the bass player. Well, when I say I know him: He plays in a local covers band and I've seen them quite a few times, and spoken to him on a number of occasions. Nice chap.
I see him in Waitrose on a regular basis 
ELO, outstanding production valves and a solid performance.
Plus what a string section:-)
Yes, the string section 😯
Grew up with ELO ...love it!
Interesting, the other half and I were just commenting on how dull ELO are...no stage presence whatsoever.
But, yeah the string section are pleasing on the eye.
that prick headlining the pyramid again later 😕
Why does the ELO drummer have those perspex screens to his left and right?
Well I like Coldplay...do we know when they start?
Coldplay on at 2130 I think.
The last thing you want is some drummer bashing away next to you. Plus he/she will not here what is coming back sound wise. Call it monitoring
Thought that's what the screens might be for.
When and why did ELO become Jeff Lynne'S ELO? Is there another splinter ELO?

Coldplay coverage starts at 2100 on BBC 2.
I flicked past when ELO were on.. assumed it was Chas'n'Dave 😳 😆

Luckily there are many other channels that would love your company.
Personally I don't think he's much of a singer but the songs are good and last time they where there they put on a brilliant show - looking forward to it.
Loving it this year love Muse per**** pick me up after such a shit day. I'd had about 3 hours sleep and still watched their entire set. Of course it overblown and pompous but it's fun. I love Radio head but I know who I'd rather have seen in Friday.
New Order are fine without Hooky they sound better. Rolling Stones would have packed in 40 years ago if you could carry on without a founder member. The new album is the best since technique. I've seen Peter Hook three or for times recently he's fine with the Joy Division stuff and early New order but he really struggled with the more recent stuff as it doesn't suit his voice.
Really looking forward to LCD sound tonight
Well, there you go, 2 completely different views, Glastonbury obviously suits your taste, but not mine. Gave Music Complete 1 listen, was so boring I moved on to new stuff and I certainly wouldn't go n see Hooky's JD/NO tribute band live!
Anyway, I watched Squeeze do 'Slap n Tickle' earlier. Good song that. Not the same without Jools though 😉
Richard Hawley was great.
One of Jeff Lynne's cellists was stunning!
Jo Wiley looks great for 60.
Wow! I'd never have guessed she was 60. I had to google it 😯
Never been to Glasto but yesterday's pyramid line up was awesome - made me wish I'd been there.
Is it me, or is there more than a passing similarity between Coldplay and Simple Minds?
Anyone seen any unfamiliar acts that tickled a spot? Shibusashirazu free-jazzed the **** out of me and I didn't see that coming. Still smiling at that, if only for it feeling a billion miles from more miserable current events. **ART**
And a perfect 'Mr Blue Sky' in the pi$$ing rain? Deadpan Jeff is so ace it beggars belief.
I saw cellist first.

Erm
Jo Whiley Born: July 4, 1965
haha yeah, he had me confused there for a bit. Still looks good for 50, though.
not a coldplay fan at all, but loving this, great energy.
Coldplay can >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
All about LCD soundsystem on that red button.
LCD Soundsystem for me. If you are watching Coldplay I can say now we'll never really be true friends
You can be as music snobby as ya like, but Coldplay is where's it's at! 8)

Oye! I think you'll find first post in the thread is officially considered the "bagsy"
Watching and enjoying this Coldplay set - out and proud!
Loving the wrist bands , remote control?
Polly Jean finally up on BBC iplayer. Weekend complete.
Guilty pleasure watching Coldplay as well
Yeah wrist bands are amazing!
Real nice touch from Coldplay re viola beach. Likes.
After an 'emotional' weekend that's made me smile! Bit dusty in here, playing Viola Beach.
Coldplay doing the pyramid headline act slot proud. Classy touch with the Viola Beach segment too.
Barry Gibb....great to see him! Sky full of stars top quality stuff.
Great Sunday night stuff!
Earth wind and fire were flipping awesome.
.... Michael Eavis - excellent (better than Barry Gibb)!
What a great set.
LCD playing a storming final set on the Other Stage. I pity anyone who's watching Coldplay instead.
Got LCD on red button now as coldplay finished. Best of both worlds 🙂
