Headliners 2015

[willutalk]

Suggestions of Take That are somewhat sickening.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Though it would still trounce Jack White.

[Muppetmark]

Francois and the atlas mountain (at franz ferdinand) was probably the support band that won over the most people that i've seen. Prides did pretty well at brixtno supporting blink.

[Bisque]

What with the reviews of Take That performing as a three piece they would be awful bland booking. Not even for cut out for a legends slot.

Just had a number one single and album tho so the reports of them being unpopular as a threesome were premature.

The reviews though...

I can imagine they are extrememly popular with middle aged women with disposable incomes & as a boggo Xmas gift.

Plenty of middle-aged women at Glasto

[michael eavis' beard]

Courtney Barnett got a horribly small and disinterested crowd at Metronomy on Friday. Didn't bother her though, she was fab

She always is!

[GuitarManDan15]

My 2cents on Jack White... Most disappointed I've been in a long while!

The setlist was cack and he lost the crowd. Don't get me wrong I love the crazy unhinged thing and to see him play guitar was great but that setlist was pants!

1 song of blunderbuss! That was a cracking album, should have played more of that and dropped a few WS songs.

i agree that it could've done with a couple more from Blunderbuss, but the setlist was fantastic! maybe could've done with one or two Dead Weather or Raconteur songs i guess but getting to hear all of those White Stripes songs was amazing, and i was too off my face myself to notice just how off his face Jack was

[LondonTom]

Jack White was NOT shit.

Agreed! People who say he was, are just wrong. End of.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Jack White was really disappointing, I was really looking forward to him, but after Robert Plant it was a big let down.

[CaledonianGonzo]

You need to let it go.

I always preferred Meg anyway...

[Wooderson]

Jack White was a mess last year. *sniff* *cough* *scowl*

[mr gumby]

All these reports of how bad Jack White was make me glad I made the effort to trek round to the Other stage for Manics.

[The 38 year old virgin]

He wasn't THAT bad

[willutalk]

I though JW rocked it! Definitely assisted me to the bang over I had on the Sunday.

I think too many people were there for Seven Nation Army and none of the other songs TBH.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

He wasn't THAT bad

He was the biggest disappointment of the festival & that's including the weather.

[FuzzyDunlop]

The weather wasn't that bad.

[A Guy Called Matt]

I enjoyed it. Nowhere near as good as when I saw him a couple of weeks ago but not shocking.

I think it seemed worse following Robert plant as well as he was fucking brilliant.

I chose to keep the wife happy and not see Robert Plant - when I saw it in the TV on returning home I was happy I had made the right decision.

Shame I chose to go and see Jack White.

Biggest live music disappointment of my entire life and I was really looking forward to seeing him.

[jonodillieono]

Jack White was fucking terrible, with all the classic songs he has all he had to do was turn up on the day and play them semi-decently and I'd go away happy. He didn't. Fucking atrocious

[Zoo Music Girl]

Glad I made the last-minute decision to see Manics. At least with them I expect some of it to bad (and some to be frigging awesome).

[zero000]

Percy has still got a cracking voice, but all of the world music reworkings were irritating.

[A Guy Called Matt]

Did you leave your ears at glastonbury?

What didn't you like about percy?

Percy has still got a cracking voice, but all of the world music reworkings were irritating.

zero000 has part of it.............................. it just didn't do it for me.......

There also seemed a total lack of atmosphere but obviously I was not there and maybe the rain had something to do with it.

Ears are fine - there was just that 'something' missing for me.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Any "world music reworking" was minimal. On the whole they were fairly faithful renditions and he knocked it out the park.
