Yeah. A genuinely odd decision.
It also meant Avril couldnt come on and do a tune with Shania.
Same for Jason from Sleaford Mods and Orbital. Hes on one of Orbitals recent tunes. What clown put Sleaford Mods, The Streets and Orbital on at the same time?!
This is a really fair and decent assessment of the situation and I agree that Glasto should continue to make bookings like this, as it’s important for the future/pipeline of the festival.
On a separate note, I think there have been a few dogwhistle comments on the internet, which have been very disappointing to read. For example, people saying that she’s crap or sh*t but they haven’t listened to her music!? How was you be able to make that assessment if you haven’t listened to her tracks? Saying you don’t like a genre because of elements such as the tempo or construction of the music itself is one thing but discounting an entire artist without listening to them isn’t just stupid, it’s also incredibly telling.
I’d say 87% of Britain in favour of pro choice vs 66% in Ireland is a pretty big difference. Perhaps I’m wrong in assuming Catholicism has an influence in Ireland, but the stats speak for themselves on the culture differences on that particular issue.
Anyway this thread keeps going off topic. Moving on.
