Don't know if it's everyone's up of tea, but thought it would be good to have a thread of highlights, things to catch up on/look forward to.
I'll be going back to watch some more of the Young Fathers. Looked and sounded amazing. Looking forward to seeing them at Latitude.
Watching the Arctic Monkeys. They're one of those bands who passed me by a bit. A decent set, but maybe a little pedestrian and samey for me. |  |

Didn't think I'd ever say this, but am thoroughly enjoying Rick Astley. |  | | |

I liked the Foo Fighters performances.
A lot of people didn't like the Artic Monkeys performace, finding it slow or off, but honestly for someone like Alex Turner (who was sick prior to glasto) they did good and I enjoyed it. [Post edited 24 Jun 2023 19:10]

Kind of like Wimbledon - a middle class overpriced look at me event that passes most grown ups by. |  |

I can’t say I’m an avid listener of Lizzo but she can certainly put on a show. |  |

Chrissie Hynde's still got it.....who would have think it!
As Dubbers says though it's an awful line up, mind you if you even see the front of the Pyramid stage you're doing it all wrong. |  |

She/the band still perform their hits as they did 30-odd years ago, her voice is amazing.
Can't agree that it's a poor line up, so many different acts for all generations, there must be something for everyone, even those with terrible musical tastes  |  |

G n R a little slow getting going, but now well in their stride.
Wasn't sure how they'd be, but well in to it now.
I'd forgotten how incredible Slash is! Shredding it! | |

Is it Axl's voice, or can't the mic handle his pitch? Can bearly hear him sometimes | |

It's not great, but don't forget Appetite for destruction came out nearly 37 years ago.
I don't suppose many of us are as good as we were back then. [Post edited 24 Jun 2023 22:56]

Regarding the sound mix, all of the BBC coverage has had terrible sound.
Everything sounds very muffled and there is no clarity at all.
I was starting to doubt my setup, so I tried listening to a random track from last weekend's Hellfest from YouTube. The sound was crystal clear. There is definitely something wrong with the BBC's sound. | | | |
