Glasto part deux.. no miming or auto-tune required

[Jellykat]

Last night of our musical telethon... let our ears be filled with joy!

My teen daughter got me into Olivia. Obsessed now. She’s so cute 🥰

Me too! She’s great. So impressed with the way she’s commanded the crown and her performance. Seriously impressive at 22!

I’m in awe of that Rhythm guitarist - and the lead guitarist - and the drummer - in fact I love them all!

Didn't know who Olivia Rodrigo was, but she was excellent. And bringing in Robert Smith, amazing!

Agreed on OR, I thought that was awesome, I've always enjoyed her songs on the radio, had no idea she had so much stage presence, massively helped by her super talented band. What a treat.

I'm off to see Alanis Morrissette tomorrow night, can't wait to catch up on the prodigy soon though.

Thanks for your company and recommendations, it's really helped me enjoy the coverage.

OR sounds like Disney trying to do rock.
Amyl and the sniffers every time for me. If I was 15 again, that's who I'd want to be.
Fuck it, 45 year old me wants to be her too.
'Me and my girls, drunk at the airport.' Yep.

She brought out David Byrne from Talking Heads at BST Hyde Park. She’s got taste in music, that girl!

Heh! I grew up there, many years ago. Left in the 70s, have seldom been back since, although I hardly recognised the place the last time I was there (a funeral, natch).

Yes, it feels incredibly Disney to me.

Her band is cool af but her songs aren't for me.

Not for me. She's very pretty.

Thanks for the threads @Jellykateven if you forgot to tell me about the second one 😝

Guess I was the only one who thought the prodigy were absolutely horrendous 🙈 sounded like a rock band and not the happy dancey rave band that they used to be . Too much emphasis on strobe lights and shouting about warriors and not enough about the original music . Thought the drummer and guitar player were an embarrassment too playing up for the camera every chance they got . Turned over to Olivia Rodriguez who was surprisingly a delight and sang beautifully with Robert smith

Not Disney for me and I was forced to watch The Descendants daily for what felt like 10 years. I’d know! 🤣

She literally IS Disney doing rock. She started out as a child tv star. But I like her Californian teen themes…she’s cute as hell and has lots of humour in her music. And she has such energy onstage and rapport with her audience. Love her.

Rodrigo damn autocorrect

Amyl and the Sniffers are superb too but there’s something just so refreshing about seeing a proper tight, female band - OR would be such a different proposition if she was prancing around in front of a bunch of mullet-headed lads.

Apparently The Parcels were v good, will have to check them out tomorrow.

😜back atcha @JaneJeffer 🤣

Well that was absolutely cracking. I knew Vampire but didn’t know much of her other stuff. Definitely a fan now.

And Robert Smith!

Thanks for all the fun on these threads. It’s been brilliant engaging with you all. Here’s to 2027!

Thanks to @Jellykat. I shall spend the rest of the week on catch up I suspect, to check out all the bits I’ve missed.
Its been fun.

I can “see” him so vividly😢 it is still such an iconic image💔

Enjoying whoever this is. Overmono?

I like Overmono @Plasticwaste. DJ duo from Wales I believe. They are at All Points East with Chase and Status, Nia Archives in August and I’m considering getting tickets.

Know the name but never listened to her songs..thought she might be like Taylor Swift. How wrong…She was awesome. I loved all the young girls effing and blinding along with her in the audience..Robert Snith on stage sealed the coolness for me..✊🏻

Thanks @Rollergirl11 , the song I heard from them was gorgeous so will have to check them out.
