Already played it, so assume candle in the wind or Rocket Man.Elton will surely close with goodbye yellow brick road
Maybe I’m still standingAlready played it, so assume candle in the wind or Rocket Man.
I thought exactly thatHe sounds like Vic Reeves singing songs on Shooting Stars!!
Not a fan of Elton John or Guns and Roses at all, so will totally skip them.
I have recorded the entire Glastonbury coverage on the BBC. I intend to try and catch, Queens of the Stone Age, Viagra Boys, Generation Sex , the Foos and Sparks and some newer bands I have never heard of before, just to give them a whirl and see if I like them or not.
Not been impressed with the line up this year at all to be honest. Usually there is at least one band I am really excited to see.
I think Otis has it on Betamax, remote on a wire and has to turn it over and fast forward if he wants to rewind.You should make use of iPlayer. It has the entire library on there of every set from the week available on demand. Saves recording the whole lot and doing lots of fast forwarding!

They are a new one on me, so I will check them out.Queens of the Stone Age were immense.
War on Drugs were great too, one of my favourite bands.
I do actually use iPlayer too, but always tend to record everything as well.I think Otis has it on Betamax, remote on a wire and has to turn it over and fast forward if he wants to rewind.
Have you seen the thread "You know you're getting old when ..."??Looks a ghastly place, full of middle class champagne socialists, paying £300 a ticket whilst pretending they care for the poor, not washing, queuing for toilets, overpriced food and drink, cheering Jeremy Corbyn and Greta Thunberg, then leaving the place looking like an environmental nightmare. Apparently morning yoga classes for the masses this year too.
I watched Lightning Seeds last night, brilliant set! You forget just how many good songs they had. Sweet look from Ian Broudie as they started "Life of Riley" (which some older readers will remember as the music between the goals on Match of the Day) as Ian looked at the guitarist...who is his son Riley, whom the song was written about when he was a small child! "Lucky You" and "Sense" also brilliant.
They of course gave in to the mass expectation and "reluctantly" played "Three Lions" (thankfully with no guest stars) and it went down really well, as you'd expect.
Probably because the BBC's output from Glastonbury is wildly popular, and licensed/re-sold around the world. I'm guessing it's a huge money-spinner for the BBC.I also can't fathom how the Beeb can just spending the licence fee on promoting a commercial enterprise and sending a reported THOUSAND of its staff to cover it!!
Another two bands I am not aware of.The Murder Capital and Shame were brilliant.

Love Idles. Only heard one or two songs of Fontaines DC and liked them.Both quality. If you like Idles or Fontaines DC then you'd like these two.
Yeah, but 20 million people watched the coronation and that wasn't very good either.Elton John’s set was watched by more than 7 million people on BBC1, making it one of the highest rating programs of the year.
Because its brilliant, loads of people watch it.Have you seen the thread "You know you're getting old when ..."??
But i am absolutely with you.

Yes, but 10 million people watched Mrs Brown's Boys and The Birdie Song got to number one.Because its brilliant, loads of people watch it.
