stez Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Yeah, but were I able to see him I'd have gone to Isle of Wight and not Eavis's tripe-in-a-field Oh, and Fleet Foxes are amazing live. Large venues don't do good music justice. TV even less so. he certainly has no idea of how to put a festival on
Daggers Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Yeah, but were I able to see him I'd have gone to Isle of Wight and not Eavis's tripe-in-a-field Oh, and Fleet Foxes are amazing live. Large venues don't do good music justice. TV even less so. Seen Young a number of times, once at Glastonbury, and he was amazing each and every time (I never saw his dumbfuk electronic era - the worst album I have EVER paid for). Fleet Foxes are not amazing on download. Were not amazing on TV and amazingly will not be given any other opportunity to waste my time.
AjcW Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Having just watched kasabian on bbc3..... I would actually be happy if fire was our build up song next season..... really lively tune....
lavrentis Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Where can I watch Springsteen. BBC Red button is ****ing useless.
Libertine Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Where can I watch Springsteen. BBC Red button is ****ing useless. BBC2 at 11.05
Finchy Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Large venues don't do good music justice. Muse? Radiohead? Oasis? Large venues take their music to a whole new level.
AoWW Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 I watched a bit yesterday... it looked incredibly soulless. Bland performances with bland audiences.Having said that I don't like large venues and I also know you can't capture a concert on tv or video - you have to be there. Having said THAT, Glastonbury is The Man - The Man dressed in wellies and garish, mismatched clothing, but The Man nonetheless. I'm kinda feeling that this year. I appreciate you get nothing like the full atmosphere conveyed on TV but compared to some years very little has really interested me. Sure, I've enjoyed a few sets so far but normally during other years when I've not been there I'm full-on pining by now whereas this year I'm just a bit 'meh' about the whole thing. I'm sure if i was there I'd be enjoying it, but I can't see it going down in the history of the event as one of the 'great' years.
Matt Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 On BBC3 they don't, but on BBC4 they showed all of the Specials. They'll show about 3 of Kasabian, then show a couple of other acts, then show a few more of Kasabian later. Cool. Also just to let any fans of Kasabian know, there is a special on Radio 1 about Kasabian on Monday night, Think it is "The story of Kasabian" and will have bits from tonight's set. I really do think Kasabian are the biggest band in Britain at the moment! It's no bad thing but you can't turn the radio on without hearing a Kasabian song, or someone talking about Kasabian, You can't watch TV without hearing Kasabian as a soundtrack, e.t.c, As I said no bad thing I love Kasabian. (I meant to post this earlier before going out, but as I was writing I had to go out....Obviously as i've just got in I missed their set/highlights on TV Oh well, hopefully i'll still catch some highlights or hopefully there will be an option to see some of it on the red button)
Matt Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Yeh it's on the red button. Can watch online too. Red Button here we come Shoot The Runner I think I have a man crush on Kasabian, I wanna be em'.
Unabomber Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 alun cochran was the funniest for me. shaun lock was a bit disappointing It's all about channel 2 atm
stez Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Red Button here we come Shoot The Runner I think I have a man crush on Kasabian, I wanna be em'. was just off to watch that, but got side tracked by pendulum
purpleronnie Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Clarence looking cool He must have the easiest job in rock. Sound doesn't seem great this year, maybe the tv isnt picking it up , although I guess its hard to sound that great at festivals.
Matt Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 was just off to watch that, but got side tracked by pendulum Just watching that now. Really like Pendulum, My mate who's a big DnB head used to like them but absolutely despises them now the are mainstream, I'm not a huge fan on DnB although I have got into abit recently - Its the twats that like it that do my head in , which is why i'd never go to a proper DnB rave/gig. Pow, Pow, Pow.
C-man Posted 27 June 2009 Posted 27 June 2009 Did anyone notice how hot Lily Allen looked on Friday? Woah.
