I've a mate who has the same opinion of every band...First album was the best. Cracks me up! 😁 (I usually use the Pablo Honey argument with him!)...for what it's worth (obviously just my own opinion), Murmur is good, but it ain't a patch on Lifes Rich Pageant (or a bunch of other R.E.M. albums)...My #1 gig of all time to this day remains their 1989 performance at the RDS (saw The Cure there a couple of weeks after it...16, summer of 5th year, no exams...R.E.M. and The Cure...brilliant). -
Just to add the other side of the Oxfam earlies, I have been fortunate a few times and it has been a blast. I do admit the first time I was a bit underprepared in terms of camping equipment, but subsequently I took everything I might need to be very comfortable for the duration. Including a futon mattress to go under my SIM so I slept very well. One of the big advantages of parking so close to the Oxfield is that you can take anything and everything. The main vehicle gates pre-festival are extremely busy and a lot of fun, all the different crew, workers and suppliers coming on site, the suppliers often coming in with delivery after delivery on a constant rotation. It is gobsmacking how much is involved in pulling everything into the site ready to open to customers, the logistics must be crazy. But yes, I have also been on a smaller gate and that was quite dull. But all done and dusted by Weds am at the latest. What's not to like? You get Weds to bimble around and/or sleep to recharge your batteries and then the next 4 days are yours to fill how you please. So I for one can understand why earlies are sought after, I would love to be lucky to get the opportunity again -
And Utd have them in the cup as well. Leicester's still starting vardy at 38, is perhaps not the greatest idea. Especially as he usually plays 90 minutes. -
Still twice the price for significantly more acts than the 2 at the Kasabian x Blossoms SBE WarChild gig. So, yeah, I'd agree with that.
