kaosmark2 Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I love Crystal Castles, but they were the worst band I saw at Reading last year by a mile. It was just Alice being an absolute twat on the floor in front of the stage. Pointless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisque Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I heard their Glastonbury (maybe '09) set in the John Peel tent has gone down as legend. I'd still be taking it in at the back thinking its a load of rubbish. They won't headline, that's 99.9% safe to say. But I wouldn't grumble at them subbing. I just love Bestival as last year I could say "let's go see Camo & Krooked for 45mins, then just stroll round for Stevie 5mins before he's on" & actually get to do that.

Joe- Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Oh, god. Crystal Castles at Bestival in 2011 was dreadful. Definitely a band I'd not want to see play an outdoor stage again. I lasted until "Not in Love" when I realised that Rob wasn't gonna come on, then got some chips and gravy. The chips were good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Sister Sledge were outstanding. Sly & the Family Stone should play if they're still touring? I seem to remember reading an interview with him living out of a campervan in America somewhere though, he seemed slightly unhinged. And Crystal Castles really aren't a band to sit and appreciate from the back, I thought they were awful the first time I saw them too but amazing last time. You need to not be sober, go down the front and get into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey1989 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'm going and it's going to be great but I preferred the Saturday night fever vibe last year over this years hip hop extravaganza not my cup of tea but I suppose it will make me explore more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
