Glastonbury 07

Recommended Posts

Been to every Glasto since '98 and love it.

Not the best one this year but still gresat fun. Highlights were

Arcade Fire - Absolutely awesome

Marley Brothers - So many great songs and the sun came out too

Bootleg Beatles - A great sing along to end Sunday night

The Enemy - only caught the end of their set but they were amazing and will definitely buy their album

The Hours - worth the treck up to John Peel stage from the Park, really got Saturday morning going

Modest Mouse playing Float On - the sun came out and everyone around me went mental for this one

Klaxons - Not quite as good as I'd expected but still brilliant

Fratellis - Another sing along

Guillemotts - stunning, a real spectacle

Kooks - kicked @rse

Lowlights, missing the Twang and rain and mud (again), it's so much better when it's sunny. Plus spending a fortune, everything seemed much more expensive this year.

Also saw Babyshambles and Dirty Pretty Things (sadly no Libertines reunion), Monkeys, Killers, Dylan Project and the View. All were OK but none massively exciting.

Saw some guy in cabaret tent too who'd played bass with Pink Floyd, Madonna and Michael Jackson who was great and loads of brilliant stories.

Don't think so.

Eavis has said they've signed a big band but not Muse or U2. Thinking Rolling Stones myself

Ah, he said he doesnt want U2, however he has stated before today he wants muse, muse will be signed up, just not this time :)

Fratellis were awesome, in my opinion! :worship:

Muse at 08 :jump::punk: :punk: :yahoo::banana: :banana: :w00t: :w00t: :dance:

God I hope not, that whining voice kills me, have heard loads of there songs on mtv etc...still have no idea what he's wailing on about, and by the way Muse...ever heard of a melody.

As for Glasto, my faves:-

WELLER

ARCTIC MONKEYS

THE CORAL

THE ENEMY

IGGY AND THE STOOGES

THE MANIC'S

The worst acts;-

Killers - dear oh dear, alright for 10 year olds I guess.

Who (love the band but so boring to watch now)

The Automatic - nonesense

Fine if you dont like Muse, or Matt's voice, fine, mint, coolio dawg, but they're an extremely melodic band.

And you can't spell their so Stickeh is right.

:worship: Agreed, he can say what he wants but melody is definaytely something they have, infact which band doesnt have a melody??!

If i had to pick out muse songs with melody, im sure id find around 4 albums worth.

no bands really blew me away. Bloc Party were great but i expected that. CSS were very good. Then Killers, AM, Kooks, Maximo Park, Just Jack, View, Kasabian etc - all decent but not spectacular. i expected bit better from Kasabian after the last time i saw them. Dirty Pretty Things and The Cribs were both poor imo. Jamie T was good too

Maybe its his warbling voice that puts me off, maybe I haven't heard enough of muse to say they aren't melodic.

But the noise of the band and his warblings, melody or not is painful on the ears.

For a 3 man set up they are powerful and melodic, each to their own with his voice, howeverat least 150,000 people the other week liked his voice.. :whistle:
