Glastonbury 2023

They have a budget of £500k per Headliner, it used to be £200k

At some major festivals across Europe or Coachella in California, some headliners can get £1m for a night's work.
App they always wanted fleetwood Mac but the budget was never enough but tbh I saw them the other year and wasn’t impressed
 
Just watched Cat Stevens, that blow me away, how good was he.
His new stuff sounds good as well.

I still cant listen to 'Father and Son' without getting something in my eye
Excellent. Always liked Cat Stevens and still have a few of his albums from the 70's. To watch him today was a pleasure and brought back many happy memories of those days. Brilliant set IMHO.
 
Arctic Monkeys sounded fine, the vocals were a bit quiet in the mix early on but that's it.

Axl Rose voice is shot to shit

And Chrissy must have been singing out of tune

I really don't think artists singing out of tune is a technical error unless the sound engineers have some sort of pitch shifter on in the monitor mixes the band hear, which is completely unlikely to be honest. Unless they are using pitch correction like a live auto tune and have a setting to autocorect to notes in specific key and scale but had it set wrong to the song which could happen, but then he didn't really sound like there was any of that, you would clearly hear it.

Another thing to consider is all the bands have their own sound engineers and monitor engineers and everything like that, so it's very unlikely all these top professionals that go all over the world with these bands all get it wrong at the same time. so basically you can put it down to performances and I think the broadcast mix that we're hear is pretty shoddy anywhere, but that's often the case with festival broadcasts.

For me, Arctic Monkeys singer sounds shit nowadays because he sings in his “I’m dead clever and interesting” voice rather than his proper Yorkshire accent.
