Anyone watching? I thought I’d make a thread we can drop in and out of to chat about what’s on.

Texas are playing right now. What an absolute bloody delight to see Sharleen Spiteri, looking exactly like herself at 55, giving it all. Her voice is still amazing. Rock on!

Anyone watching Jacob Collier. Very quirky and upbeat. He’s a great musician.

It was brilliant when he got everyone singing.

So confused. Where do we see Guns n Roses ? It's not on bbc until 10 but starts at 9.30. Everything in iplayer says live when it isn't.....

I’ve just switched in the UHD live pyramid iPlayer channel for GnR

Whether they’ll be on time…..however!

the80sweregreat · 24/06/2023 21:29

TV guide says 10.00 pm bbc two , but might be different?
However , it's usually put on behind when it actually starts so will be a late one I suppose

cashmerecardigans · 24/06/2023 21:30

You need to be on iplayer, then you can watch any stage live

If you go to the Glastonbury section of iPlayer it has pyramid stage, select that.

Just catching up with the Manics on bbc4 - love JDBs voice still

the80sweregreat · 24/06/2023 21:33

I player have guns and roses on.

GellerYeller · 24/06/2023 21:34

Loving the old Smash Hits references! Who remembers them nicknaming Rick Astley Dick Spatsley? Rick ran with the joke and one of the songs on his album had the songwriting credited to ‘D Spatsley’. Classic.

Anyone else spotted the fella in the gimp/gas mask? He’s been on the front row at every stage I’ve watched. I reckon he’s rung in sick to be there

That's exactly what DH said!

MTV used to play the video for November Rain on an almost continuous loop

I don't know how many times I saw that guy inexplicably dive into the wedding cake 😄

BillyBraggisnotmylover · 24/06/2023 21:35

Catching up. Lewis was heartbreaking, hope he takes a long, long break.

Manics. Sigh. The 13 year old me is loving every minute.

For some reason Axl Rose is reminding me of Ian Beale

😂
There is a resemblance
Look out for Rick Astley

cashmerecardigans · 24/06/2023 21:37

@the80sweregreat Rick has achieved godlike status for me after that Blossoms set Smile

the80sweregreat · 24/06/2023 21:37

I player is glitchy
Not a big crowd for them
Not as big as for the stones
( terrible grammar , but you get the drift )

TragicMuse · 24/06/2023 21:37

I loved Lizzo so much.

Twitter is being utterly cuntish about her, of course.

Ha ha - so true!

Rick must come and sing every year now
Emily Eavis, if your a mumsnetter, we demand you book him at every opportunity ! Lol
Twitter is evil 🦹‍♀️
It is hard to navigate and the people on it are mostly vile

Watching tonight to see Guns and Roses

You couldn't pay me to actually go!

They're showing Lewis Capaldis performance and the crowds are insane - some people are so far back - surely you can't see him properly so what is the point? There's flags left right and centre, so probably obscuring people's visions - they've just panned to a shot probably at the back of the first field, and he's like a spec in the distance - and there's probably another 2 fields behind them

What if you were in the middle of that crowd and needed a wee?!?! There's some people right at the front surely they've been there hours to get that spot

It's one of the places you couldn't pay me to go

-way way way too peopley. The crowds, just no

-the camping. The only way id do that would be in a campervan, maybe at a push the glamping. The thought of being in those heaving tent fields. Just no

-the toilets. Absolutely no way

-needing a wee in the middle of all them people. Being amongst all them people.

-the walking

-the lack of sleep

-the heat - being in that crowd in this heat... Or on wet years getting soaked and not being able to dry

I go to football matches but at least you have an allocated seat!

Lewis is fascinating to watch (safely on the telly!) You can see his ticks yet his singing is unaffected. The red arrows flew over while he was on, wonder if they were scheduled to or if lucky coincidence

I am way too much of a princess to go to Glastonbury, I've never even been to a concert as there was no one I liked enough though did try for Busteds reunion tour but the location near me was gone in minutes

Those keyboard cunts don’t even have a hope of ever having a glitter speck of her talent EVER. Idiots. She was ace.

A treat for all the Smash Hits kids Grin
