Nobby's Old Boots Posted December 15, 2024 Report Share Posted December 15, 2024 He absolutely can be a prat (his most recent behaviour really got my goat, although I do appreciate his proper apology for it on reddit) but are people really moaning about him playing up at an awards show or other similar behaviour? What a bland state of affairs we're at where people complain about that kind of silliness. Either much much worse has been done by the complainers' favourite artists or we are really demanding an embarrassingly high bar for behaviour in an industry that is built on mad people doing mad sh*t, and it actually being quite entertaining. The alternative is all frontmen are like Chris Martin. At least Healy makes good copy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a bold gambit to come back and go straight in to play to 70k in the Millennium Stadium tbf. Although if any band is arrogant enough to do that, I think it would be the Gallagher duo.

Expand It’ll be pretty much the same discussion TBH. Both are headliners by pretty much any objective measure. After that it’ll just be whether people like them or not.

Expand I’m a metal head and can say with certainty I preferred Harry Styles last 2 albums than anything I’ve heard the 1975 do. and I thought Harry’s albums were 4/10 I’d also suggest that in terms of a worldwide audience and ticket sales Harry is a bigger draw than 1975 by quite a margin.

Expand Styles is obviously a bigger act but his music is far more MOR lowest common denominator than The 1975. At least the latter tried to branch out in different genres, even if that meant stealing their sounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted December 16, 2024 Report Share Posted December 16, 2024 I wouldn't label Styles stomping big pop singles (As It Was, Watermelon Sugar, Late Night Talking, etc) as MOR. And the crowd's reaction when Rick Astley dropped the former suggests that the Pyramid Stage crowd will also be going too haywire to care. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
