Glastonbury worst I've seen!

[Ontobetterthings]

Anyone else? I tuned in last night and couldn't believe how bad it was! 1975 was headlining and it was so middle or the road.

Maybe I'm getting old but the music was awful!!! So bland. Im early 40s 🤣

What are your thoughts?

Mine was 2010 also! I was pregnant with my eldest, so no booze for me but had an amazing time all the same.

I was going to mention the Pet Shop Boys too!

I was quite enjoying his set until he started chanting "death to the IDF" repeatedly and getting the crowd to join in... Not that I'm a fan of the IDF (at all!), but inciting violence live on the BBC isn't my cup of tea, so I guess you're right in your assessment!

I agree, I’ve been looking them up and am going to buy some of their music, I thought their sets were great.

CMAT stole the show - she was awesome. Some of the other stuff - much less so.

If I went I wouldn’t go for the bands anyway, I go to a lot of festivals and you don’t know the lineup when you purchase tickets, it’s more for the atmosphere, meeting people and watching random acts that you might not of heard before. That said I’d try and make it to Alanis Morrisette and Supergrass.

Cat Stevens was brilliant two years ago..
Bruce Springsteen was fab last time he played... 💕

The titbit the Beeb showed of the Blossoms, Super grass and Franz Ferdinand was ok ..but that's kind of when I stopped listening to music generally.

Loved Alanis Morissette, En Vogue and Brandi Carlile but haven't been interested in anything else.

Yes!

Judging by your post you listened for about 24 seconds.

Just switched on to watch Kneecap but seems the BBC will not be showing them . What an absolute shower of craven fuckers the BBC are.

Yes it'd be really good if they practised what they preached but Glastonbury is a case of do as we say not as we do. The masses of rubbish left behind another example.

Nobody's mentioned Myles Smith, his set was really good yesterday.

I caught Cmat last night, embarrassingly awful.(and yes, though I am old, I’ve been going to gigs for a long long time and have seen lots of challenging and diverse acts(what my parents (and my kids!)would have called bloody noise), so like a bit of batshit crazy, but it would shame the local karaoke.

It’s lovely to see all the support for Palestine there this year

She was awesome. What a voice, what an outfit!

I had never heard the 1975's music (I'm old!). I enjoyed their set but am astonished that this is Glastonbury headline material. Not a single hit. All lovely but bland. I did like 'Paris' but really, I was pretty underwhelmed. Matt Healy has a lovely voice but he is a bit full of it.

Just watched The Script. They were SO much better.

I thought En Vogue were pretty decent. And Alanis Morissette should have headlined. What were they thinking, putting such an iconic act on so early?

Thank God. Hopefully they won't show them at all.

They have said they are going on i-player later.

I’m enjoying Weezer at the moment, they sound pretty good

I listen on R6 rather than watch and usually they get rid of all that stuff. So much of it generally when they don’t.

Some 'we will dance again' flags too and yellow ribbon flags for the hostages. Nice to see a bit of balance.

That would only work as an insult if the BBC showed every other act except Kneecap.

Shame Netanyahu doesn’t think like that
