Glastonbury 2024

[I'm With Stupid]

But.......Paul Heaton and Rianne Downey - just fuckin superb

Loved his little dance routine.

Why no sign of Squeeze on iplayer?

Glastonbury 2024 at least confirmed that, given the chance, I'd still smash Dua Lipa.

Calm down Richard Keys.

My mate got caught climbing the fence at Glastonbury.

They made him go back and watch the rest of SZA...

(Never has an old joke been more appropriate)

I thought this when I saw it live - have to say Shania breaking watershed rules was NOT on my Glasto Bingo Card

Shania Twain risks 'Ofcom complaints' with Glastonbury 'rule break'

The country singer stunned some viewers watching at home on the BBC as she introduced one of her songs

I've watched Heaton & James on the iPlayer both dropped a few F bombs, in fact Heaton actively had the crowd swearing as usual. I assume any footage shown on TV wasn't live/cut.

As for Twain....is shitty a swear word? FFS

This year's Glastonbury has passed me by some how ! I would normally watch the Sunday headline act. But since Ed Shearons one which bored the life out of me, I haven't paid it much attention.

Looks like I did well to forget as the closing headline act I've never heard of !

There wasn't much on that I liked personally, last year's seemed to have better acts on.

By that measure, you might as well get Westlife and JLS to headline then.

I suppose people will have at least heard of them:-)

I met the Mrs 34 years ago. Coming up to 30 years married - Still the One is the greatest lobe song ever

I think for most songs you use your ears mate.

Its the aged old I don't know them or know anyone who listens to them so they mustn't be very big argument. I hadn't heard of Sza either when she was announced and understand why many are the same, but it's clear that her target demographic and therefore the one glastonbury are aiming the slot at are. And other's are in a minority as - shes consistently in the Spotify most monthly listened to. As a comparison in 2023 she was at 70m+ listens/plays per month compared to Elton at around 50m per month. It's generational, has it ever been any different?

Turn that racket down said every older generation since the beginning of pop music

@Kippaxpete I've seen your post on volunteering and will respond when I'm back home so it's not too kneejerk! If I'd responded at 7am Sunday after an over night shift it'd be a different response to now!

People will listen to any old shite when it's free or get given any old shite to listen to on playlists or suggestions.
