Glastonbury 2020 ... now 2022
Discussion
Got the laptop in a box in the garden (sun), burrow hill cider and pasties. Sam Fender great, Olivia surprisingly good.
But why are the stages starting so late? They're a good 2 hours behind what I'd consider to be normal scheduling. 11 am, party time. Now there's time for a roast dinner before stuff gets going on the main stages at least.
It always used to be Marcus brigstocke, jupitus et al in the cabaret tent for the early edition at 9.30, then over to a stage for the first act well before noon

My wife wanted to watch Diana Ross on iPlayer but it was painful...really flat and screechy vocals. I went out to the garage to get on with a little job and when I came back she got me to turn it off and my wife is fan.
I know she is an icon but this is bad. Not enough power in the voice to carry off a gig of this size. Juanco20 said:
Elbow have two excellent tracks but the rest of it is pretty dire and enough to send you to sleep
Funnily enough, I once went to see them at the MEN area a -the 2-3 crowd pleaser songs were fantastic to be honest, but I actually did fall asleep later on (I was sat right at the top/back and maybe a little off-colour)

Jack White exceptional
Yep. Just watching it on catch-up. He’s fking brilliant isn’t he. I saw the White Stripes at Glastonbury 2005. Squelched my way to the front in thick mud and watched the pair of them bang out all the hits with minimal chit-chat for just over an hour. Loving the mix of old and new. He’s still got bags of energy and works the guitar like a man possessed! Love it. Gassing Station | Music | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
