Well, we didn't stay there literally all day, we were at the Pyramid from First Aid Kit onwards, Which was about 3pm, and we did go away a couple of times to get some nosh. We spent all of Thursday and Friday morning at exhibits and the odd performance or small set. Pretty much all of the artists on Friday that we wanted to see were on the Pyramid, just a nice coincidence. The only one that wasn't was Flaming Lips, and they were on at the same time as Radiohead. I probably would say Ride too, but they clashed with Royal Blood, so there was no chance.
Saw Flaming Lips at Glasto some years ago, Wayne ran out across the crowd in a massive hamster ball. Ace. Am off to see Ride in Leeds later this year.
Minimalist, but also complex, emotionally raw but still able to push the boundaries of what music can be. I seriously doubt you'll ever read anything more ****y and pretentious. Priceless.
Royal Blood will be headlining Glastonbury in a few years, I'm certain of it. Just need another album of the quality of the first two and they'll be sorted.
Last time I went to Glastonbury was when Jay Z headlined. We were at the front row against the barriers from 9am until it finished. I didn't eat anything all day and pissed in a bottle. Come to think of it, I must've eaten maybe a tin of fruit and a pastie in the entire 3 days, plus a few bottles of vodka. We slept right next to thme bogs as well so all we heard was steel doors slamming all night. Because we weren't eating none of us **** from Wednesday night to Monday morning. Really weird trip that was.
Son in law just got home from curating a stage. Four hours sleep a night since last Tuesday. Constant trouble shooting. Loved it. Knackered.
