Glastonbury 2024

[Franny 1234]

It's now the dogging capital of the Borough I'll have you know.

How do you know this ?
Where abouts exactly (just asking for a friend)

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Bland, uninspiring……

Well they inspired 100,000 plus.

Listen, I get it. They’re not everyone’s cup of tea, but they absolutely put on a show.

To see Michael.J Fox there - who inspired them to create their band - was an absolute pleasure to see, and something people won’t forget.

Haters have their hate though.

Talk of a horse on stage with Twain tonight....fucking crazy, if it spooks it could be carnage.

Stick it in midfield for England, can't do any worse

 

[Fireplace George]

Morton Harket.

Gorton Market

The thing I don't mind about coldplay is they don't really pretend to be anything they're not.

They know they're not they're not some super cool hipsters favourites. They know their audience and they cater for that audience, basically mostly people who like fairly middle of the road pop-rock music with enough hooks for a big audience to sing along to with a big stage production. They're very good at what they do.

They've also been smart moving with the times and into different markets. They went to America, got styled a bit, some of their songs got a bit more of a pop production over the years that tied in with current trends of production in music, but with enough of their own sound in there. It's not as easy as it looks, otherwise many more would be in their position. They're pretty savvy at that kind of thing, if they weren't, they'd probably be on the same circuit as Travis today.


Personally I don't listen to them, it just doesn't do anything for me, but I fully understand they have the songs and business sense to be where they are.

Emperors new clothes….

The glowing wristbands, confetti canons, lasers, large inflatable balls, etc, certainly add to the spectacle.

Some people might say it’s pure cheese, which it probably is, but it’s a very clever addition to what would be a normal concert, and people of all ages at Coldplay concerts love it.

Kasabian -
Just brilliant
Looked like they really meant it

Completely agree, not my favourite band, but they do put on a good show and I can appreciate why they have so many fans.
