Nope just checking them out in line. Missed John Grant at Glasto bury the other year. Think he played Hull this weekend for their city of culture. Sure we will try and catch them live at some point.
Sadly not live. He was at union chapel tonight. Thatās about half an hour from my house and I didnāt know. Fail.
Been some excellent tunes posted whilst Iāve been away. Good work gang.
I particularly approve of @fatso 's shoe-gaze session.
** ⦠is that even possible ??**
Thereās no other way Steve
Never seen the Gorillaz live but itās high on the bucket list
Snoop Dogg gets everywhere a top ligger
They headlined but didnāt go down that well, except for Snoop
Yeah I remember, good apparently but a bit too laid back for the headline slot
I was there, I absolutely loved it.
Considering how short a time they had to pull it together (about 2 weeks when U2 pulled out) - it was a pretty awesome spectacle. The most amazing thing was at the end each song, the stage resembled a relay race - people going off and coming back out again. Lord knows how they co-ordinated that.
The Snoop thing was brilliant. He was playing on his own that day, so it was seen as a given theyād collab, given Snoop did a track on the Plastic Beach album that had just been released at the time. Gorillaz started on that track, but Snoop appeared in a VT - cue disappointment all round as folk think heās left early.
Then, encore, Clint Eastwood, cheeky Damon grim. Loads of fun.
Iād recommend trying to see them, Iām certainly going to try and get down and see them if possible.
Itās like Tom Waits met Daft Punk for a coffee
I ruddy love that album.
