Glastonbury 2015

Not much on the live player at all (after The Mods)

Been tuning in here and there but not much to report, have to say (and I'm trying not to be all fucking cynical) just seems like mainstream wank of the highest order. Way too middle of the road for Uncle Beerwolf. Very dull indeed. James Bay, Gregory Porter, Vintage (not much) Trouble (at all), Jesssie Ware, Father John Misty, The Maccabees? Don't get me started on the complete dross on the Pyramid Stage, wtf is that all about? George Ezra and the rest of 'em could fuel enough bottles of piss for me to chuck that my bladder would dry up and turn into dust.

Bad day for music imo. Def a day for getting munted.

give us the iplayer link ya womble.

The whole Kanye thingy goes right over my head tbh, not sure what the fuss is all about (neither for or against)

Not sure the media are going crazy over it either, I might watch a bit later, if I'm bored enough lol

Deadmau5 was fantastic, Norman was shit.

it was just really shit. boring as fuck to watch, very badly performed (like when he tried singing that rhianna song...fucking hell...), and entirely about his own ego. man is a complete fucking idiot.

edit: @ beerwolf

gotcha BCM!

nice to hear from Wumbo Man

sorry I've been all over this thread, I've had 2 weeks off work most of which I've been doing a lot of hard cycling so these last few days I've been winding down with a few beers and just watching/listening to music/Glasto as much as possible, really enjoyed it

what'cha up to today Mister Wumbo?

Just streaming the Jon Hopkins set. Would have been amazing to be there, proper trippy vibes

iPlayer is really good, you can just randomly flip between stages.

I'm watching Flying Lotus and Grandmaster Flash 2nite. I may substitute Chemical Brothers for FlyLo if I like the start of their set.

i can watch the iplayer (maybe i'm closer than you think), fuckit i was just after the link cause i was too lazy to find it myself.

watching future islands cause my brother likes them.

watching Alt-J as I like some of their tracks (not all, bit hit and miss for me), I think they have great musicianship but they seem a bit boring on stage (or perhaps pretty chilled), hard to tell seeing as I'm sat in my living room

the crowd keeps growing so perhaps they have the perfect early evening vibe?

I'll probably be flicking between The Fall and Weller, both will bring the goods live I'm sure

that future islands bloke is fcking scary

Alt-J suck but I would have watched a bit of Suede though, i like Wild Ones and Beautiful Ones. I listened to them a bit at school but haven't heard much about them since.

As for Kanye West, he was a steaming pile of shite. Utterly awful. Sampling random shit, then pausing the set and turning out all the lights.

Shit denims, shit samples, shit lyrics, shit vocals, shit lighting, shit smoke machine, shit fans in the crowd. The only thing that worked was the crane operator who took the cunt high into the crowd for a song and then brought him back down safely.

Put on Belle and Sebastian....for 30 seconds. Fuck that!!

yeah, it's terriblol. But so is everything else, will just ditch the stream, sigh, i wanted to find stuff out with wide eyed wonder, ahh well.

oh roy ayers is on,, much betterer.

edit, could have hired a less musically handicapped keyboard player though. Guess it's not strictly jazz so i can't complain too much.

had a sake and it sounds better now, yay. also tried to jam along with it but the thick plaster on my right thumb is making picking a pain, plus i suck.

Also my brother and i have decided that they had an huge sesh before the went on, which would explain the take it home to ditsy.

You really need to watch The Fall

props to that crane operator, what a ledj.

Roy ayers wasn't getting a reaction from we live in brooklyn baby, so chucked in we live in the UK baby and woke people up a little from his sleepy night night musics (the original late night radio sleepy night night music), a round or to later he chucked in "we shop at tescos baby". Gotta connect, we're not in kansas, i mean brooklyn, i mean Tescos in the UK anymore baby.
