Glastonbury BBC

[EC1]

Springsteen
I'm not an unemployed steel-worker from Pittsburgh, so his lyrics don't really connect with me. Dad-rock for saddos who like 'real' music, wear Wrangler jackets and eat Yorkies. Get a haircut.

REM
Inspid, clever-clever, Californian, art-house wank - still the daddies of the genre.

Bono
Cock.

U2
Stadium-rock, get-over-yourselves, parody of the rock-band they wished they were 20 years ago. Mullen has retained his cool throughout though.

Mozart
Pudding-faced Austrian c*nt.

Clivex's Missus
Comes with a pump and instruction pamphlet.

funniest i've read for a bit

:lol:

yes..i got into them through my son who really liked them

my real musical world is much earlier

Clive..why keep going on about rock music?..you don't even like the genre

 

[clivex]

but unfortunately successful, attempt to hoodwink people - me only probably - to back some middle aged Brazilian to win the F1 World Championship.

who was that then ? Ayrton Senna?



Thought he was brown bread

 

[EC1]

lets go back to the forerunners of a genre..the biggest rock act in the world 1967/68

Fat old hippy

Fat old hippy

less of the fat

if that Cream clip don't rock you..nowt will

no one was doing that stuff at that time like that..Zeppelin took the baton from them and took it forward into the 70's

Just don't like his music. At least half of his lyrics must have the same back story as well.

I also find him pretentious (every bit as much as Bono actually). The difference for me is that Bono is in a different league as a performer.

I have seen both: Bono is a pretentious t*** and I would prefer to watch Springsteen 7 days a week and twice on a Sunday, and I am not a huge fan of his either, but it's a no contest between the pair of them. Bono loves himself:Springsteen loves performing.

On Sunday was wishing I was watching the set that Neil Young did a few years back. Saw Fleet Foxes on iplayer; they did seem to encapsulate the spirit of Glastonbury. Annoying that iplayer doesn't show a lot of acts; copwrite reasons perhaps? Sad old hippy that I am would like to have seen Pentangle.
