Glastonbury 2025

[Guest Lako42]

Not much interest then 

 

From tonight's lineup I can see why. 

 

Literally nothing worth watching at 20:30 on a Friday night

Sure it's class for those attending, but the line up is particularly weak.

[Fox92]

Not bothered about 1975 so got iPlayer on and watching bits from earlier. 

[Voll Blau]

Peter Capaldi singing Take Me Out with Franz 

[SK3Blue]

Weak line up this year, fallow year next year. 
 

English Teacher, Wet Leg, Franz, Osees, Shed Seven were ok, but the crowds just don’t seem the same. 
 

1975 as headliners, not great at all!

[Voll Blau]

Not heard them before but Wunderhorse sound decent.

[Pliskin]

It’s a dog shit festival with dogs shit bands. Festival for people who don’t like proper music. Honestly, the line up is utterly hideous, genuinely gobsmacked people would pay money to go.

Proper heavy shit. Not this clincky clanky bollocks. 

[EnderbyFox]

Busta Rhymes earlier and now Loyle Carner, polar opposite rappers but both class

Just seen your preference above, growly voiced metal shite .

Worse than rap that drivel

[Spudulike]

The 1975 are so dull. Only interesting bit was when they announced they don't do politics anymore (already too much in the world, apparently). As if their opinions are any more valid than anyone else's. Twat.

I didn't realise  1975 lead singer looks like Stephen mangan on ketamine 

[Rocket-Ron]

That song by CMAT has to be the song of the year

Hah okay, I’ll wait your music degree to prove otherwise then.

The problem with Glastonbury is not so much the music, there are & always have been acts that either appeal or don't appeal to individual tastes.

What started out as a hippy gathering & evolved into a decent festival, peaking about 3 decades ago has now turned into the sort of festival for the "Got to get a ticket for this must do experience" generation. The Premier league or the World clubs cup of the music world

Agreed it used to be great, I just watch it to try and 'discover' new bands, but it has very much become the 'instagram festival', i'll stick to the smaller festivals.

[Guest Lako42]

Think I might take our youngun who will be nearly two by then to bearded theory next year. 

 

Anyone been? 

[Guest kristianity77]

its absolutely not like it used to be.  Its overpriced and laced with dog shit artists.

 

Last time I went I saw The Prodigy, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Supergrass, Cast, Ocean Colour Scene, Terrorvision, Republica, Kula Shaker, Chemical Brothers, Reef, Ash, Placebo, Seahorses, Travis, Catatonia, Stereophonics, Armand Van Heldon, Primal Scream and Embrace, Sheryl Crow, Dodgy and Echo And The Bunnymen.  All in one weekend.

 

It'll never be as good again or go back to what Glastonbury was originally about

I think as you get older, there is going to be less to watch and see, especially if you don't keep up with the music of the day, or the style of music, or current bands, are not to personal taste
