BBC Glastonbury Coverage

[Gnasher]

Rumours circulating around Glastonbury that in an attempt to upstage Paul Mccartney, Diana Ross is wheeling out Michael Jackson and Frank Sinatra to help finish her set today.

[Bjornebye]

Yeah some crowd that. The legend slot usually gets a huge crowd but fuck me that's unreal. Shame se sounds like someone's maa has got up on stage after a bottle of plonk 

 

Loving the RNLI flag down the front as well. 

[Gnasher]

Just been watching this girl on I player as I missed her last night. Awesome, she's so unique.. 

 

 

 

 

[Captain Willard]

Looking forward to the pet shop

boys though with some trepidation. We saw them at the O2 and they were shit. The time before brilliant.

Why’s that fella, have you nearly drowned?

 

People on shoulders should be picked off by snipers. In my humble opinion.

Because of the shit they've had from gammon twats for saving migrants from dying in the channel. People calling them a taxi service and saying they're removing their monthly donations (yeah like they all gave them money) etc

 

 

EDIT: And there is a man getting passed over the crowd in a dinghy so he might need them 

 

 

Liverpool flag there at the front as well... well a Spain flag with an LFC badge on?

I just switched on and she was doing I’m Still Waiting, which is one of my all-time favourite songs. Boss! She sounds pretty good for a woman in her late 70s.

 

[Chip Butty]

Aaah, is right lad.

 

mrs Butty has just countered my ire by saying she’d go on shoulders. I just told her Rawcliffes don’t do festivals, when I explained who Rawcliffes are, she saw her arse. And Sunday was going so well…

Give St. Vincent a go from Friday if you haven’t, she beats the tune of her own drum too. Utterly captivating to watch.

I'm gonna level with you mate..... I have no idea who they are either. 

 

 

No problem with people going on shoulders, it's good seeing people have fun despite the inevitable pints of piss heading in theirs (and yours if you're stood close) direction. Doubt that happens here though.

Yeah I saw a bit of her. Brilliant. Quirky but boss. 

[Chip Butty]

There are disco loving men in that crowd.

After 9 I think.

Fucking heart-shaped hand gestures, though. I’d gladly clothesline each and every fucker responsible.

I’ve been advising my teenage sons to never marry a girl who asks to sit on your shoulders at festivals. Even worse if they have face paint. Avoid.

Most look like an appendix or a gallbladder.

 

I gallbladder you, To.

Ross has been quite ropey, vocally, here. But the she’s almost 80 caveat applies and all that. 
 

But, she’s definitely fulfilled her remit. She’s in the “Legends” slot. The slot which seems to have the purpose of getting a time served big name to bang out hit after hit and classic after classic to try and get a flagging Sunday afternoon crowd revitalised and boogeying. 
 

It’s undeniable that she’s done that. She’s attracted and maintained a massive crowd and they seem to be loving it, having a ball and eating out of the palm of her hand. 
 

Even if it isn’t note perfect. If you want that, lash Spotify on. 

[Chip Butty]

Just seen a double shoulder attempt there.

lezzers, it has to be.

Will do. I used to love Roshin when she was in Moloko, she's something else, off her tits in a good way, fabulous performer.

This Elbow song is fucking brilliant. Not too fussed on their other stuff, it's ok but this is a belter

I saw them live last Monday and they were very impressive. I wasn't expecting much but I'm beginning to think they are quite underrated. (Big hits aside)

 

Fontaines DC are boss. Great live band.

I like them. He used to do a show on 6 music and came across as a genuinely nice guy.
