:eek: Blimey ! All that flag waving and scandal . What happened to just enjoying the music and the scene.

Shocked at Raye's song that had loads of F words and talks about drunk sex etc . Imagine young kids listening to this :( :(

Showing my age here . Loved Rod Stewart , good to see him . Love his music . Lulu look fabulous .
 
I'm still catching up on recorded Glastonbury (and before that recorded Isle of Wight). The bands IMO are much better than previous years. I loved Wunderhorse, and we've just been reliving our youth with Gary Numan. Currently watching Amyl & the Sniffers... Amyl seems to have had a wardrobe malfunction, and her bikini top is now gaffer-taped on. Still have Pulp and Rod Stewart to look forward to, as well as the Libertines and Neil Young.
 
Kids hear much worse than Raye these days.
Never liked R.S.

Only heard bits of it. I think the chanting and flag waving just echoes the mood of many atm ..

A side.. my son (43) was waiting in the car this morning when two teens 16-17 knocked on the window and asked what music he was playing . The Stones .. they liked it even though it was old. ( Their words)
 
Gary Numan was the only act worth watching IMHO. A great mix of classic and newer stuff. Deserves to headline it, given his influences and contribution.
 
@JudyN I have to confess I haven't heard of some of the singers :D
Loved Gary Newman. Back in the day , a friend I worked with dated him for two weeks before he was famous. . She said he was bit odd. 😆
 
I looked him up online, just to check out his fitness regime, as he moves like someone half his age. As well as working out a lot, and being able to play several nights in a row on tour with issues, he said he was Asperger's, which has influenced his music in a good way. Which explains any oddness :)

Absolutely knocked out by Pulp - thought that Jarvis just mastered the set wonderfully, superb numbers. My daughter and son in law went to their gig a few weeks ago, lucky things. We saw Rod Stewart’s set on iPlayer - what amazing accompanists and everyone so happy. I’m getting old - I saw Jeff Beck at the Starlight Ballroom, Greenford in the summer of ‘68 and Rod Stewart was his singer. I’d never even heard of Rod before - I came to see Jeff - “Hi Ho Silver Lining” and “Tallyman”. We had some great music. Now it’s time for my Horlicks.
 
Sorry, it was during the summer of ‘67. Told you I was getting old!

Oh I didn't know that. I saw a programme about him a few years ago . A fan was so in love him and was determined to meet and marry him which she did ! Lovely ❤️
 
We're still catching up (trying to fit in Wimbledon too). Watched the Prodigy last night - wow. And as for the lighting - double wow. Then tonight we caught up with the Scissor Sisters, who were just wonderful. How they fit so much joy onto one stage I do not know!
 
I always associate the Scissor Sisters with getting ready for a big night out; hair, make-up, camera, ACTION!
 
Yes, the Scissor Sisters are fun - terrific entertainers. There’s something in the back of my mind re Graeme Garden’s son being part of their set up. Am I mistaken? Yours, Confused of South Herefordshire.
 
Yes, apparently JJ Garden toured with them, playing keyboards, rhythm guitar and bass from 2024 to 2012.

Thank you, JudyN. Still a smidgeon confused - "...from 2024 to 2012". A time traveller?
 
It seems the scandal of Glastonbury has had a knock on effect. Bob Vylan was due to play two dates in the Netherlands starting in Amsterdam but the venue has had threats made against it. Elsewhere I read that threats had been made to Bob Vylan too.

It seems some of the German dates are also under threat of cancellation too, the reason is being given as a logistics problem but reading on the web, Im hearing that its due to threats of violence.

Paradiso receives threat over upcoming Bob Vylan concert - DutchNews.nl

Amsterdam concert venue Paradiso has confirmed it has been threatened ahead of a planned performance by British rap-punk act Bob Vylan later this year. A banner held up outside the venue between Monday night and Tuesday morning read in English “If Bob Vylan plays that night, Amsterdam will stand...
