Mr 2 hats sums it up for me - to me  they are hipster indie landfill along with Basille , 2 door cinema etc

and  his own band fit his words after the Brits

"The music industry's a bit like Crufts," complained Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis. "It's all about hairstyles and who's got the best training and pedigree."

"In guitar music, it definitely feels like there's been a brain drain. There's a lot of [bands] dressing up in parents' clothes and acting out pastiche-like tropes. I'd like to see a return of edgy, unpredictable, wild guitar music."

I am open to be 'converted' IF they are edgier live .

 

 

I wouldn't put 2 Door in the same 'landfill' bracket as Bastille. Bastille are the perfect example of that. 2 Door are far, far better for me, technically, uniquely and what they're like live. Not saying they're anything seriously special, but a cracking band to listen to in the car and sunny festival afternoons

I cannot stand Bastille. Or Mumford. Or fuckin 1975. Or Mika. Or Owl City. 

I have no idea why those last two abominations sprung to mind.

Anyone see the two posts on instagram from radiohead. Posted a couple of pics from their 2010 Glastonbury performance. 

Has any of the info changed or is it still Adele?

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, my weekend so far has consisted of nothing but house of cards

I would probably watch EWF as I know 5/6 tunes and can see it being a good night, but Im not that fussed about them either. 

i need something for Friday night too.. good job there are 100+ stages.  

Looking forward to seeing what the glade and WH throw up as headliners.

They liked the pic of the festival poster art things that was once posted on here. But it seemed to person how makes the poster is actually a band member so cant read too much into that

That looks awfully like a fan account.

Yeah. We have actually established that's not official, right?

The person who designs the Glastonbury poster is the same guy that does Radiohead's artwork. Stanley Donwood I believe.

The official Radiohead account posted a picture of Thom Yorke with "You are all I need" written on it?

'Listening this great job.' Seems legit.

If radiohead do a secret performance again, surely it would have to be on pyramid or at a stretch other stage (maybe opener)

If they do one (I highly doubt they will) I think it'll be in a sub slot like The Libs last year, because it did work pretty well. Would be odd having that slot free for all the time that the set times are announced, though, rather than us finding out on the day like last year.

But the whole jam with Radiohead not headlining the Pyramid regularly anymore is 'cos they don't think much to the sound, ain'it?

Anyway they're obviously gonna do a secret slot on West Holts the day Sigur Ros or Bon Iver play.

It's a totally different sound system now. It does sound good.

And yet they played the Park, which has one of the worst sound systems on site!

It's hardly straw clutching when they are an SR on the rumours page. It's not like Neil has said they 100% aren't playing or they have a gig in the USA all three nights.

Oh good, we're back to this.
