Glastonbury 2017 BBC Coverage!

Phew - for a minute there I lost myself.
Thom Yorke is like a shaman - he gets so into the music. I loved it! Theresa shut the door on your way out!

 

Was gonna post that ... bloody marvellous climax. And keep that doooor closed.

 

It was pure magic !

 

Radiohead was sublime. Don't think they took a misstep in the whole performance, seemed to be enjoying it more than have in previous years and the audience appeared to be very appreciative too. Great stuff

 

Looking forward to catching up with Angel Olsen if I can find it...

It was brilliant but they messed up a here and there. Everything In Its Right Place was not good.

Think the set lost its way a bit in the middle but it was a brilliant final third which elevated it to one of the best Glastonbury performances.

 

It was great to hear how good Chrissie and the current band sound live. Well, sadly, from my living room that is.

I haven't been to that festival for many years. But, just when I was thinking middle age (+) and my love of home comforts mean I've hung up my wellies for good, today's newspaper had a picture of the ultimate festival tent, affording which has become the new number one item on my bucket list of things I'll definitely never do. Apparently it's just a mere £14,000 to hire for the festival's duration, and comes complete with 4 bedrooms, a dinning room and "access" to a pool. I would have expected my own pool for that sort of money, but hey ho. Wonder if it's occupied tonight?

Somehow this seems to miss the point, and everything else, of what festival going is all about.

 

Radiohead absolutely mind blowing, won't be seeing them on the 5th due to the venue change and I can't make the rescheduled date, tonight's phenomenal show won't make up for it but it was a pretty amazing consolation.

 

Watch it while you can, finale:
Creep @ 1:43:00
Karma Police@ 1:48:25

 

So, you were saying?

 

thanks man, looks and sounds great

 

Radiohead are, basically, aural Marmite!

 

7 songs from OKC. Most they've done at one show in 20 years?

11 of 25 songs written in the 90's.

 

This just in, Thom yorke has a seizure

Tried to get Radiohead tickets earlier in the Year for Manchester, and now with the arena being closed they're playing Old Trafford cricket ground. No thanks. So spent a blissful 2 hours in front of the telly with a bottle of something red and full bodied and enjoyed a fantastic Radiohead set.

Auntie Beebs coverage was utterly wonderful. No silly fast edits, no excessive crowd shots (hello every Paul McCartney concert film ever). With the hundreds of hours of coverage of sport, antiques, reality shows and the like throughout the year, last night was 2 hours of what I like, covered in a manner I like. Well done Beeb!

 

I can't see anything coming up that I want to watch. Maybe the Jackson 4. Any suggestions?

 

Check the iPlayer, there are hundreds of bands playing.

What Is The Full Glastonbury 2017 Line-Up And Stage Times?

 

A lame and lousy line-up this year. It's a pity that they couldn't go out with a bang instead of a whimper.

I'm only mildly interested to see:

...though I don't think that a festival is right for what he does.

 

Go out?

 

If you really can't find more than 1 act you want to see, from the line-up over all the stages, you might be doing music wrong.

 

Definitely check out Temples for some good old Psych-influenced rock tunes. (If you like that kind of thing.)

I'll also be looking out for Alt-J, British Sea Power, The Avalanches, Phoenix, Tove Lo, KT Tunstall.. and that's just today.

Plus, I've found some great stuff before now just by channel hopping the different stages.

 

That's a strange running order. Doesn't Katy Perry out-sell the Foo Fighters and The National combined?
