Was it Gogol Bordello who sang Start Wearing Purple? Fabulous Tune

Liam from Courteeners is much hotter than the singer from Foals

ShinyMe · 29/06/2019 21:13

Oh! The Courteeners! I hadn't heard of them before last week, but two different people told me to check them out when I was moaning that I'd been to see Muse and hated them.

Emmapeeler · 29/06/2019 21:13

I think the general consensus here is that he is indeed quite hot.

And YY to Springsteen,@ShinyMe. God that man is magnetic on stage. Bloody hell.

mintich · 29/06/2019 21:14

Nope! All ages are at Glastonbury!

SimonJT · 29/06/2019 21:14

I’m off to Glasto tomorrow, I’m 31, is that too old, or am I still young enough?

ShinyMe · 29/06/2019 21:16

That's the one @StoorieHoose They've got loads of great tunes - my current favourite is Immigraniada.

Somehow I ended up on the front row in Rock City Nottingham last year, next to their biggest fan, a 22 year old girl who was beside herself with excitement and was utterly lovely. We were best friends for 2 hours. And we totally touched the lead singer who was all topless and sweaty and leaning over the front row.

The Courteeners are a bit indistinguishable to me from so many other guitar bands like that over the past 25 years.

PolkadotLollipop · 29/06/2019 21:18

Generic jangly soft indie

ShinyMe · 29/06/2019 21:19

I love how we've utterly derailed OP's thread.

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:19

Shiny, why what was up with Muse?
I like a few tracks but not a big fan.
Uprising is good.

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:19

31 is fine!

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:21

The drummer with Liam is hot!
I could be his mum however!

PolkadotLollipop · 29/06/2019 21:21

Even if you aren’t a big Muse fan, they are an amazing band to see live.

Oblomov19 · 29/06/2019 21:22

Agree THe80 ! Grin

IcedPurple · 29/06/2019 21:22

Same. She must be utterly appalled by all of us old dears perving over sweaty young men.

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:22

All these very young folk watching Liam old git Gallagher! Who 'd thought it ?

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:23

I would!! Lol
( he would run off into the Glastonbury sunset)

Sakura7 · 29/06/2019 21:23

Liam Gallagher on now, what age range do you think he appeals to OP?

Anyone under 21 wasn't even born when he and Oasis were at the height of their fame.

howdyalikemenow · 29/06/2019 21:24

Definitely Mayve ll the way

ShinyMe · 29/06/2019 21:25

I hated Muse. I felt like I was at a different show to everyone else. I was on the front row of the pit but could see absolutely nothing as the stage was so high. It was too much show for me - dancers and lights and glow in the dark trombones and flying spacement and costume changes and all that. And i just didn't know the songs - everyone was freaking out and loving it, but I got bored and went home after about an hour, because I just felt so cut off from it all.

It wasn't a wasted trip - I quite enjoyed Pale Waves and then loved Tom Morello as support.

PJMasksGhekko · 29/06/2019 21:26

Can't wait to see Kylie tomorrow, 31 years in the industry, I don't care if some people don't think she shouldn't be in the legends slot, to me she should.

Pollywollydolly · 29/06/2019 21:26

Don't be so bloody ridiculous! What age group do you think INVENTED the music festival?

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:26

Shiny, thats not good.

The80sweregreat · 29/06/2019 21:27

That Michael Eavis fella, he should just go home eh? Oh, hang on .,
