To think the lead singer of the Arctic Monkeys is a dick?

[YellowTulips]

WTF - just watching Glastonbury - thinks he is Elvis. Lost all that Northern grit. Awful. Awful.

[timidviper]

I thought they were ok but was bemused by the accent too.

Can't bear Jo Whiley with her sycophancy and fake, smiley sincerity though. Glastonbury has become too much of a "look at me posing, aren't I cool" event for my liking but her interviews are even more painful than most.

[nellyjelly]

I think the rock and roll srtuff from Alex Turner was pure irony tbh. Still.....not to everyone's taste I know.

Re wasted slebs. I guess if I was young and vaguely famous I would enjoy the chance to drink etc at the free Glasto bar and rub shoukders with the famous. You can't blame them! It does though mean the interviewers get a hard time.

[AKissIsNotAContract]

BTW Craig Charles was interviewing Nile Rodgers! Heis a bloody legend woman!

I was too busy laughing at Craig trying hard not to gurn to follow the interview

[singaporeswing]

Agreed. Find it so ironic that he sings "you're not from New York City, you're from Rotherham" when he's become this pseudo wanky trans Atlantic cock that he's taking the piss out of.

[WannaBeANinja]

I was watching last night with DH and the first thing we said was "he's trying to be like elvis"

I always liked them not now.

they are dicks who have got to big for their pants.

[Llanbobl]

Ok, maybe I was a tad harsh on Bobby Knutt

[ditavonteesed]

you can take bobby knutt of that list right now, EY UP NUTTY!!!!

[Llanbobl]

I'd dispute the tru-fax, I give you (amongst others), Neil Warnock, Oona King, David Blunkett, Martin Caine, Bobby Knutt, Roy Hattersley, Naseem Hamed and Peter Stringfellow

No-one from Sheffield is a dick.

Tru-fax."

this!!!!

[Llanbobl]

there not their obvs

[Llanbobl]

I switched off part way through their set - just like last time they were at Glastonbury, they were shit. Get Jon McClure up their - Reverend and the Makers are a Sheffield band who know how to rock.

[nellyjelly]

Posturing not oosturing!

[nellyjelly]

I thought they were good. Surely the rock and roll oosturing was just an act, part of the show. Hence the slicked back hair etc.

Agree about all these acts looking wasted though. Must be a pain to interview them.

BTW Craig Charles was nterviewing Nile Rodgers! Heis a bloody legend woman!

Pah!

[NickyNackyNooNoo]

Oh no, I luffs Arctic Monkeys and was going catch up tonight

I shall watch later and make my own mind up

[AKissIsNotAContract]

I saw Craig Charles interviewing someone earlier and he was completely wasted too.
I couldn't even name a song by the Artic Monkeys, my mum likes them though.

[TheRealFellatio]

It was Gordon Brown, not Tony Blair.

Which is even worse.

[SyraCusa]

Posh boys that pretend not to be so they can 'fit in'

Not true. Alex went to the same school as me, definitely not posh.

I didn't see Glastonbury tonight so can't comment, but would have thought pseudo-transatlantic rock posturing more likely. I don't really blame them though, they were killed by over-hype after one album.

(It was Brown, not Blair, who pretended to like them. Blair would've handled such questions with less cringeworthy embarrassment).

[AHandfulOfDust]

No-one from Sheffield is a dick.

Tru-fax.

[dopeysheep]

I dislike monkeys anyway, definitely my least favourite animal, so arctic ones are no different. Shit throwing tossers.

[dopeysheep]

Dunno about the Arctic Monkeys who are seven kinds of shite but watched Rizzle Kicks earlier being interviewed ( badly) and they were wasted as well.
Greg James then said afterwards "they've been in hospitality for several hours and are very 'relaxed'"

[madmayday]

Coked up.

[YellowTulips]

Have a soft spot for Lauren Laverne (not sure on the spelling). She might be a mackem but she's a bright lass.

[LackaDAISYcal]

...sometimes I really wish there was a like button on MN!!

[YellowTulips]

All the DJ's are sycophants - it's like the inevitability of poo in a nappy.

[SwedishEdith]

They were very, very boring. But, god almighty, how inane is Jo Whiley - "You nailed it". Jeeze, she has been so, so lucky in her career
