Glastonbury festival lineup 2009
- Thread starter lizzieloo
- Start date
it's far from the full PCO though, Simon Jeffes is sadly long dead and some of the other key players aren't involved
I found the big 90's bands shit last year massive attack was the most and I liked them back in the day, and way prefered the likes of Dizzie Rascal, Ultramagnetic mc's and stuff that was on in the smaller fields but I'm not a fan of big stadium gigs and more of a raver and I could of done without Pete Dohcuntey, his fans actually looked pissed off! but had to sit though him as the billing was running late.. so expect to see me dancing about as much as poss again this year

I'm thinking it'll be Jack White's new band, The Dead Weather. They've announced some UK dates just before Glasto ...
unlikely to be them who alledgely will attract a crowd so large they will have a health and safety nightmare on their hands???

Its sunny somewhere.
I didn't realise he'd died of an inoperable brain tumour. Shame.
I'll go listen in hope.

I'm slightly worried about this special guest slot at the Pyramid on Friday now. There was a story on the NME site yesterday that the cretins that won Britain's Got Talent have confirmed they are playing a festival this summer. The competiton hadn't been decided at the time of the lineup going to print. You don't think...
Prodigy surely fairly likely as a guess for that slot, as Rev M said ....
Fair enough, that's equally plausible. I don't always check the lineup threads over there

Certainly was epic...
Was that the same year as the almighty purple skied thunderstorm, floodage and floaters? They all merge into one great colourful memory tbh.

That sounds more like 2005. Orbital, doing their first ever last ever gig, was 2004

A bit dissappointed that Broken Family Band seem to be opening Other stage on the Saturday , 11 AM , I would have thought they deserved better billing :
The last time I saw them at Glasto (2005?) I think they were first act on Avalon on the Saturday so I guess it's a step up from there. Would prefer to see them on a smaller stage to be honest though.

I think I saw them that year too , I remember struggling from the other side of the site in wellies through thick mud , or was that 2006 ? anyway I agree about the smaller stage . I`m not so sure if opening Other stage would be considered better for exposure than higher up the bill in smaller stage.Whatever , I think they deserve to be seen by more people .

The BFB were on in the Avalon in the afternoon in 2007, from what I remember it was an enjoyable gig out of the rain. I saw them at the Scala last month and thier sound has got a lot rockier, so they can probably pull it off on a bigger stage. I'd like to see them on a smaller stage though as I'm sure a lot of the banter with the crowd will get lost.
Standing in the rain and rolling around in the mud has never been obligatory as far as I'm aware

Really? I wondered where I was going wrong

Regarding that BFB discussion further up. I just got an email from them saying
Is this Dirty Boots Stage new?
I would go and see them at that 5pm gig. But I think at that point on Saturday I am planning to be taking a flask of weak lemon drink to the cabaret tent for Kevin Eldon.
