Trying to talk a friend in to going to this, they're a massive Ezra Furman fan but "it's May half term so might be away with the family". Pah, Priorities.    If they decide against it then I might just do my usual and work it. Quite fancy this one as a punter though.

I've always thought that any band in the last 15 or 20 years when choosing a name would think of internet searching to make them easy to find

Dubious if the activity required to do that is worth it as a prize tbh.

Had a go at filling out the Main Stage:    Hozier / Chappell Roan / Bloc Party / Soft Play / Wallows / Alessi Rose / High Vis / Mannequin Pussy / Red Rum Club   Bring Me The Horizon / Enter Shikari / Papa Roach / I Prevail / Conan Gray / Bilmuri / Lambrini Girls / EKKSTACY / Bambie Thug   Travis Scott / Central Cee (special guest) / Trippie Redd / Suki Waterhouse / Doechii / Sea Girls / Lancey Foux / The Dare / Luvcat

I'm totally not The 1975's audience (far too old) but I think they're amazing.   They're very different to what I usually listen to but have seen them live 4 times now and they really deliver. When they play "The Sound", it's going to be a Glastonbury moment.   Totally agree that Matty can be an asshole but I have come to terms with the fact that most great pop/rock/music stars are just awful people. I can't imagine how you could be in that position and still be normal.   I'm really surprised at how dismissive people are of them, but totally understand that people's tastes differ. I feel like that about Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay and Muse, for example.
