It’s Glasto

High Spots:

  • CMAT – For pure joy at actually being there!
  • Alanis Morisette – 30 years after Jagged Little Pill the voice is still brilliant
  • Brandi Carlisle – The Story and Woodstock (Joni Version)
  • Raye – bringing West End Supper Club to Glasto
  • Neil Young – Hurricane and When You Dance
  • Pulp – for still being Pulp

Just watching The 1975’s set from Friday night. Pretty good really.

I was quite looking forward to Rod Stewart this afternoon, but after the Farage comments, might give it a miss.

I’m sure that Kneecap are chuffed to bits with the extra publicity received from our PM and the BBC. Didn’t watch the set. I have trouble keeping up with rap in English never mind Irish!

Just to put stuff in context the last album I bought after seeing a band on Glasto on the TV, was Hot Fuss by the Killers in 2004 ( you know…. Mr. Brightside). I am therefore sure that my opinions are of no consequence whatsoever.

    šŸŽ‰  Splendid party with old friends yesterday. We compared medications, illnesses, discussed the medications and illnesses of people who weren’t there. We solved some of the world’s problems, but not many. I managed to avoid any political discussions at all (as far as I can remember anyway) probably due to the fact I was driving…
