Worst ever performance at Reading & Leeds

[mrtourette]

Odd Future are the Oasis of hip-hop.

I was suggesting nothing of the sort, I meant that anyone who would rather watch those bores stand there and plod through the motions, as opposed to 45 mins of OFWKTA bounce about like loons causing chaos, is a NAZI!!!

If people genuinely could take nothing from that performance simply as it involved no one playing a musical instrument, I genuinely feel for them

Musically it was a horrific, god awful mess, as a 'performance' it was magnificent

What?

Asked my uncle

1. Razorlight 2007

2. Guns and Roses 2010

3. Kings Of Leon (both times).

He said all three ruined the festival for him.

Odd Future are the KOL of hip hop.

Odd Future are the Oasis of hip-hop.

That would be Nas. Like Oasis, he's released some great albums but the way he has so many annoying fanboys going round saying that he's the best the genre's ever seen like it's a statement of fact is just tedious.

[kaosmark2]

How do you define credible though? I can't see any 'credible' guitar acts that are big enough with R&L's target audience to justify a top-two spot, and any guitar acts that are big enough probably aren't 'credible'.

If you're big enough to headline a 90,000 capacity commercial festival aimed at teenage mainstream indiepoprock music fans than you've probably done something along the way to lose your credibility.

[VCK]

Nas hasn't spent 15 years releasing albums that sound like a cheap rip-off of his earlier work.

[Benj]

True, but he's never topped Illmatic, same with how Oasis never topped What's The Story Morning Glory.

I like to think of Public Enemy as The Stone Roses, and then N.W.A. as Happy Mondays. The parallels are there.

Odd Future? They're like Jake Bugg or The Courteeners or The Enemy or someone like that. Popular due to their gimmicks.

[VCK]

What are their (Jake Bugg or The Courteeners or The Enemy) Gymmicks?

[mrtourette]

Bob Dylan, the new Oasis, working class gobshites slagging off the government.

[VCK]

Yeah, but I'm OK with that. Lots of acts have never topped their one of the first two albums but still released worthy stuff. Smashing Pumpkins, De La Soul, Pixies, Pearl Jam, Mogwai, Led Zep. Nas' later stuff is still good and worth listening to, Oasis' isn't.

Newcastle United, they've been shite since the 90s ended.

[thetime]

Now that's just ignorant trolling.

So many great European nights under Robson in the early noughties.

Beating molde does not count...

Newcastle beat Leeds to a Champions League spot which then-Leeds chairman Peter Ridsdale gambled a hell of a lot on, so I may have sounded quite bitter when I said that.
