She is absolutely superb. I've never been either, but she was very entertaining on TV. I did follow her back - imagine if this was true

The good bad and the queen were brilliant.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 9:29 pm**

Miley Cyrus was surprisingly good I thought, wouldn't normally have crossed the street to see her but was a powerful, if rather potty mouthed performance.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 9:35 pm**

Not that impressed this year. Not my usual choice of music but I thought Jungle were great.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 9:37 pm**

The Cure, proper music.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 9:39 pm**

Always loved the Cure
Sounding great

I agree with yourself and conyoviejo.

Kylie was the best though but both very good.

Robert Smith is ageing well.

The Cures drummer Jason Cooper is so so good - very impressive

To be fair the whole set is very impressive.

Not a huge Cure fan, but they have been excellent

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 10:28 pm**

Whole band are on it, particularly Robert.

Just Like Heaven absolutely incredible.

Haha agree but did you see Mr Smith's glares at the keyboard player when he got a bit wrong...

Fascination Street I think?

Missed it.

Proper band. Doubt they’ll have to resort to getting special guests up with them.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 10:36 pm**

Hes still well in front with that voice at the grand age of sixty top performance

A Forrest - one of my all time faves - That Bass

It just doesn't get any better, The Cure playing 'A Forest' - wow. It would blow my mind though if they did '10:15 Saturday Night'.

Has Mike Skinner always been this odd or is it the disco biscuits?

Whatever they were trying to do....it was pretty shite.

The Cure were good but saw them live in 89 when they far better.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 11:57 pm**

Mavis Staples - best of the lot.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2019 11:57 pm**

Who are these?

Posted: **Mon Jul 01, 2019 12:05 am**

They have the best voices

I saw them in ‘89 as well, at the Loreley Festival. Supported by The Mission, Sugarcubes and The Pixies (Doolittle had been released the month before!)

They were at the height of their powers. Was lucky to bump into Robert Smith in Heathrow a few years ago and he said The Prayer Tour had been his favourite one.

With cracking musicians aiding and abetting.
Great hour with Jeff Goldblum and the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra followed by Mavis Staples.

Young lad who got pulled on stage by that Grime artist Dave stole the weekend for me. He must be absolutely buzzing

Posted: **Mon Jul 01, 2019 3:42 pm**

I was quite taken by this lot, especially Christine.

- this bit was shown just after The Cure had come off the stage.

GIRLFRIEND - Christine and the Queens.

4 times, though not since 2014 (I've tried for tickets each subsequent year but haven't been lucky).

I never watch the coverage as it's not as good as the real deal.

Yeah right, MJ did a lot of great music, had tons of fans, made loads of $$$$$$, left a massive musical legacy [and yes the other stuff before someone mentions it..allegedly]...she'll be hoping for some of that.

I was there myself. Great event. Superb day. It was set in a bowl and all the ""smoke" hung like a cloud over the crowd. Why did it stop, it was very well attended.

Kevin Ayers and a band called Tir Na Nog I think is how you spell it,1971 if I'm correct great day out.

Easily done...

I’m sure she is and to be honest, good luck to her if she does. But all the hype she gets is ridiculous. She really could be singing over his old backing tracks - she even nicked the dance moves.

Posted: **Mon Jul 01, 2019 8:17 pm**

Just got back from another amazing 6 days at Glastonbury. There is music from every genre; pop to punk, poetry to every variety of dance music before you even get to bands covered on Tv on the main stages.

Music from early morning until well.... early morning. Not just dance stuff, one minute it’s techno or house then a brass band or IDLES in the South East Corner in the early hours.

Too hot Saturday though
