Hello, sorry I'm late :oops:

Just catching up with last night's BBC2 coverage, you'd be forgiven for thinking Coldplay were the only bloody band there :|

Kasabian did indeed rule supreme from what I've see so far. Club Foot was damned impressive earlier, Processed Beats is on as I type this :notworthy:

New Order were shyte, no surprise there then :|

Was a bit disappointed with a somewhat lacklustre looking EATB doing Killing Moon. Never Stop was better though, did they show any others? Silly me forgot to record Friday night's coverage.

Holy Sh1t, Chas & Dave are on now :eek:

More musings later when I've watched the rest of last nights....(any more Kasabian to come? Hope so).

Damn. Kasabian were on? :evil: One of the very few contemporary bands that's caught my eye. Where is that cd...
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.

They were excellent, still only seen the two songs though :(

Forgot to mention Interpol earlier, who were also superb.

I'm no sure. I'd like to see more of the Kasabian set. The Scream are indeed rockin' though.
Let's hope they dont fcuk it up by playing Rocks or Jailbird or some other tosh from that era

<edit> Ach, they've blown it!

jeezus christ!did anybody see the state of the geezer out of the beach boys?(i do know his name but the white ciders winning)reminded me of the last pope in his last years!to be honest,it may as well have been him,as far as i'm concerned...never liked the beach boys.

they really know how to line 'em up at glasters eh?hot on the heels of tom jones and rolf harris(bless him for "stairway to heaven" though-anyone who can upset so many hippies in one go gets my vote).
these people may be [insert defence on their behalf from the previous generation] but for the £££'s involved you dont want a hasbeen novelty act.

Severe mental illness/breakdown does tend to have that effect on a person.

I thought he was bearing up rather well considering. At least he managed to hold a tune or two...are you listening Mr Sumner?

Agreed, Brownie's yer man. :notworthy: Roses, Golden Gaze, Longsight M13!! What a boy. 8)

Good to see him headline too, he was on mid-afternoon in 2002. Still kicked ass though, as you'd expect.

Didn't see the ScreamTeam. :evil: Were they good? They were anything but at the Leeds Fest the other year, and I'm afraid to say the prospect of trekking out to see them headline Glasto 98 was a fearful one - every time I stuck my toe out of the dance tent on the friday night it disappeared in a wall of rain. Shame on me.

The Scream were patchy, I really wish they would drop the crap songs from their set, you know from when they used to hang out with George Clinton too much, basically they should be embarrassed to play anything from the Give Out... album.

Kowalski and Swastika Eyes were top though....Boaby seemed to be a bit 'distant' throughout the set :roll:

gawd, from what i saw on the various bbcX channels i thought primal scream's performance was bloody awful.

bobby was utterly fucked and completely unable to hold a tune. the whole thing sounded like a complete racket.

if i'd paid to see them and they gave a performance like that i'd want a refund.

disgraceful. :urff:

and they weren't much better at V a couple of years ago.

i love them but they're just s**t live.

Saw some of Coldplay's set; even Coldplay looked bored...
