Glastonbury 2025

[VoR]

Yeah that Charli XCX set made me feel 1,000 years old. Can she really not even speak in tune?

 

[FetchFugly]

People turn up for DJ’s doing less so I’m just going to accept this is pretty good and it’s the same vibe?

I’m sure it’s super fun if you’re there

I've got into it more as it has gone on to be fair.

 

[VoR]

I did recognise Gracie Abrams because she’s still unaccountably dressed as a peasant from Chernobyl.

 

[Devil]

Just caught up on Alanis…really didn’t hit for me. Was that meant to be amazing?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Charli XCX is incredible live but you're absolutely not going because of her singing.

I've never thought it translates amazingly on TV either

 

[GNL]

Live vocals are very much not the point of Miss xcx. In fact, I think they would actively SUBTRACT from the experience. She's there to be a sort of rave gremlin master of ceremonies.

 

[BoysForSeles]

I’m not her target audience but I got dragged to Charli last week and spent the time wondering why everyone wouldn’t rather just go to a club instead.

Good point. I guess with the emphasise on 'if you're there'. Doechi is killing it right now and her set works way better for TV.

 

[PercyPig]

As if she’s doing I Love It!

I Love It ( ) when an act isn’t too proud to do their biggest hits

 

[ZenGiraffe]

It's one of her WORST SONGS

 

[PercyPig]

She's there to be a sort of rave gremlin master of ceremonies.

A fine description

 

[FetchFugly]

I can see it is going off with the crowd but I Love It feels kind of out of place. The energy had felt like it had dipped a bit, stage licking notwithstanding.

 

[FetchFugly]

So from what I managed to see of the screens was that brat is dead but brat will never be really dead or something?

 

[straightorbroken]

En Vogue!

Damn, if they hadn't done so many covers I might not have lost the time I complain about

 

[Penelope]

It's one of her WORST SONGS

The FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

 

[Penelope]

Catching up on the Scissor Sisters. There's something about the sentence "I'm horny like a coke-fuelled threeway at the back of a Wetherspoons" barked out by a hag in a Texas drawl...

Also GOD Del Marquis is such a piece in the year 2025.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

The FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

I SAID WHAT I SAID

 

[Penelope]

IAN MCKELLEN

They brought him out at the recent O2 gig too which was amazing as we were not exoecting it. Invisible Light is just so good.

Ana also not hugely missed with the two new broads I feel.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Pulp were magnificent. The Common People performance was gloriously rousing.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Catching up on last night. Who left Jake Shears out to dry?

Charli was serviceable, but little more than vaguely singing over the pre-record of Brat. I can do that!

The main story was really, who'd have thought she'd be headlining anything, just two years ago?

 

[FetchFugly]

The Scissors were excellent. Beth Ditto seemed to be on one though, immediately declaring she didn't know the words and eventually sliding off the stage before disappearing into the crowd.

Just caught the end of Joy Crookes. The crowd looked a little sparse but When You Were Mine is especially lovely.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I've never really heard Joy Crookes, but I like her, very Sunday

 

[Inner Smile]

Finding Rod a bit boring

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Me after sertraline:

Finding Rod a bit boring

 

[GNL]

Just watched Alanis on catch up. So good.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I'm not sure there's an original Rod Stewart song I've ever particular cared for, and I'm able to stretch to enjoing something by most artists. Even Collins, U2 and Sting have a few in their back catalogue.

 

[Ellie]

Has he done Young Turks? I’d tune in for that.

 

[dmlaw]

He has brought on both Mick Hucknall and Lulu. Far more offensive than anything Kneecap or Bob Vylan have ever done. I hope Avon and Somerset Police investigate this.

 

[Inner Smile]

I quite like Baby Jane but didn't even enjoy that

 

[AGinAg (37)]

He has brought on both Mick Hucknall and Lulu. Far more offensive than anything Kneecap or Bob Vylan have ever done. I hope Avon and Somerset Police investigate this.

Dear Rod,

 

[Shirley]

I do hope all three are going to do DA YA THINK I'M SEXY

 

[VV]

Lulu must be knocking on towards 80 now too!

 

[Soldi]

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Lulu must be knocking on towards 80 now too!

Knocking on hell's door.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Who is the female singer for Nile Rodgers?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Nile reminds me of Pete Waterman. Oh good, another made up celebrity story.

 

[funky]

Did ROD get BOOED?

If not, WHY NOT?

 

[Inner Smile]

You have to remember he is 80
