Charlatans was very good as per, only shown about 5 songs though, why not the full set? Great band live, tim burgess was dressed as Billy and Jonny and looked about 5 years old .

Remarkable band.

Burgess has clearly lost any marbles he may have once had. He cuts a very, very strange figure these days.

When this came out he was the coolest **** on the planet. Had the looks, the hair, the clothes, the moves, the lot.

He’s still most definitely got the tunes though.

 
The Charlatans moved with the times,despite tragedy.....and continue to be relevant,their music is consistent and a cut above IMO.

Burgess is indeed odd,he's also a genius,and he fronts one of the coolest bands ever.
 
@Stoned Rose and @FantasyIreland they are a phenomenal band and keep churning out song after song and album after album and you're bang on fantasy about how the tragedies have made them stronger.

Great back catalogue and fantastic live and stoned rose you're spot on that Mr Burgess has definitely gone a bit cuckoo over the years, maybe the Californian sunshine has frazzled his brain. :)

Probably smacked off his tits at the time, now he drinks tea, looked a right dick last night but still a great band.

It’s personal choice but Stormzy uses the N and F words more than Bernard Manning who’s getting a right panning off the Liberals on another thread, dons tin hat. But, some will say, because he’s black it’s ok to use it. I personally think Glastonbury are trying too hard to pander to those wanting diversity (not the dancers), I mean, how many of these Stormzy songs do most people know? Most of the crowd don’t have a fucking clue which “song” he’s going to “sing”, to me its not good but I’m an old fucker.

I reckon that most people didn’t know most of Pulp’s songs in 1996 but it was one of the most iconic performances ever.

I can imagine my Dad posting this had bluemoon been around when Prodigy first played Glastonbury.

Thought Stormzy clearly gave it everything, but only his biggest supporters would say that was successful. As I said when he was announced he just doesn't have the back catalogue, and he didn't space out his more well known ones - just played them in a row at the end. The crowd was uninvolved and appeared largely uninterested for the first 90 mins.

I’m not sure how you gained that from the bbc footage unless you were actually at Glastonbury in which case ignore this post.

The crowd look fully engaged to me. The songs aren’t sing-a-longs like the Carpenters but youngsters these days clearly love him.

Watching it this morning and it’s the 1st time I’ve ever been watching Glastonbury and my kids have come to watch it with me. One 18 and one 12.

You’re definitely wrong on Pulp, their singles were staples on the radio, it was a brilliant set though.

Rap music has been around for a long time but it’s marmite, I personally hate it, I just don't get it. Prodigy were not my music as well but at least they played music that was recognisable.

Punk and New Wave was my era but I like loads of different music, would love to see a bit more of Idles and Fontaine DC based on last nights short airing on the BBC.
