I wouldn’t be surprised if Sam Fender is one of them given one of the press releases banged on about local culture and all that! But the 5 mini days seems logical. Hopefully I don’t like all 5 days because my bank account certainly wouldn’t be happy with that, nor would my legs 🤣
I'm still bitter about foo fighters and james getting short sets at Glastonbury 1998, as they showed the England game on the main stage.
Not a fan of international football...
I don't think there's any coincidence that we say 2010 and that's when mobile phones with data plans hit the mainstream. Also the Tories got in. Kids went from listening to CDs they got from HMV with mates in a bedroom, to bumping the latest Grime track on a street corner from a Sony Ericsson that's been bluetoothed around the whole school.
Then there's the sudden import of American culture over the mid 90s to mid 00s. Simpsons, TGI Fridays, Garage Bands, Tony Hawks Underground etc really exposed us to a lot of American pop culture, which brought the new wave of US music (RHCP, RATM, Blink, Eminem, Jay-Z etc). When the mobile phones hit, it never gave the predecessors like US scene music time to develop before the world was listening Paramore, Fallout Boy, Kings of Leon, Imagine Dragons, PatD...
