Glastonbury highlights

[Planetary]

anyone see kings of leon just? excellent set. as tight as ever and played all the best tunes:)(Y). although shitty bbc2 barely showed any and that irritating north-eastern woman was presenting it who doesnt seem to know anything about anything. (n)

i saw a wee bit of mgmt-that was good-not kol though.

taped all the bbc three stuff - just watched it all, kept showing loads of stuff over over and over like kt bastard tunstall and the ting tings, showed loads of kings of leon, not my faveourites but they had a good sound.
the beeb coverage is annoying but i dont know if thats just cause i am not there and its frustrating me. they are supposed to be showing most of jay z tonight tho'. i hope he has a stormer and shuts evryone up. the thing that makes me laff is that loads of people keep whingeing and its made it more of an event and he is just getting more attention and exposure which is good.

i can't see the problem-glastonbury has always had a wide range of music so why is a bit of hip-hop such a no-no. fucking old bastard shakin stevens is a worse choice-it's not even funny!

hope they get no more rain tho-it must be such a shitter having to traul through mud for miles

the rain is shit but i must admit to hoping it rains a little bit so that i feel justified in not going this year. i couldnt have handled not going if it was nice weather i would have been gutted.

i don't think i've ever been bothered about not going -prefer smaller festies. jumped over fence to get in once-we were living just up the road. had more fun legging it across fields and thru hedges to evade farmers than when we got in! nice chilled moment sitting on hill above the site watching the orb do little fluffy clouds-it kind of wafted out for miles-cosmic!!

I was watching the coverage on the bbc iplayer earlier and of the two 1 hour shows I found my self skimming through them stopping only for the 2 lupe fiasco performances, a dizzee rascal performance and interview and a ting tings performance.

But after watching last night's jonathan ross's interview with Jay, I'm pretty hyped for his performance, especially after all the shit its taken for it to happen. I'm currently listening to westwood (which never happens) and I've got the bbc 3 show at 10.30 sky+'d (as I'm currently being convinced to go out tonight)

jay z was outstanding. that is all.

Yep. Jay z wins Glastonbury.

he was brilliant, i think if bbc had shown the clips before he came out then wonderwall would have made even more sense (it was funny tho') but i just like the fact he put on a special glastonbury show, didnt take himself too seriously , looked like he was really enjoying himself and that he took the challenge and killed it. I only knew about 50% of his tunes but doin stuff like the estelle bit, the fuck bush bit, 99 problems with AC/DC , his very dignified speech at the end ,i could go on, i have already watched it 3 times! It was just nice to see that in the plethora of absolutely shite, samey monotonus guitar band shite that i have seen on the beebs coverage that he made me get out of my seat. I really wish i had gone now:(

[gbsuey]

right-i'm off to the iplayer....

[Parkey]

He was ace.

[gbsuey]

from what i'm seeing he seems like the perfect festival headliner-he has a bit of everything and it's totally feel-good. be different if it were some totally hardcore gangsta rap with no happiness. spot on i say-would liked to have been there.

I haven't seen ANY glastonbury highlights yet

Was Shakin Stevens any good?

Yeah, I was listening to westwood on my pc and was going to stick on bbc3 when he came out and there was a good few mins between westwood saying the show had started and bbc3 switching from massive attack (I think?) to jay.

The comments on that youtube video are pretty awful. The always reliable dailymail also has a headline that says "how angry hip-hop star upset Glastonbury organisers"
