Enjoyed the Foo Fighters. Looking forward to Cat Stevens on Sunday.
Music Glastonbury 2023
- Thread starter CallyRed

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
His accent cracks me up 
Helders is such a dude. My mate used to life coach him which is hilarious as he's not someone you'd want coaching you. He turned up to Helders house once for a party, already steaming and ate lasagne with his hands.
This is really disappointing so far. I hate the vocals, they're sapping all the dynamism from the songs
He's been like this for years, I don't know why he couldn't have left that style with The Last Shadow Puppets tbh, he's just butchering all the classics.
Such a let down so far, used to one of my favourite bands but he's lost me these days.
Artic monkeys are boring me to death. They've got such a decent catalogue too, always wonder why bands like this on the headlining days don't just play what people want to hear? Turns into such self indulgent crap
His accent is fecking hilarious, the old songs have to much energy but his crooning and his accent when he sings is just ridiculous
Enjoying it so far
Almost respect this level of shite ness. It’s like a comedy/parody performance from Turner.
Your not Johnny Cash your from Sheffield.

Will the real Arctic Monkeys please stand up.
Really? When I've seen other live clips they've seemed decent but maybe they were older.
I love this band, but this is just plodding and boring.
Why do you only ever bore me when you're high.
It's a bit surreal. Long time since I've heard em live, this is like a cover band.
I'm in the minority here but I'm enjoying this. That said if I were there I'd be watching Chemical Brothers (saw AM a few weeks back).
Did he sing like this then as well?
I saw Chemical Brothers at Glastonbury last time I went (2014, I think) - they were so good. Light show was ace too
You'll always get a banger of a show with the Chems.
Saw them last week at the Emirates and he’s turned his mic up by about a thousand since then. This style works with songs off the Car but not the old stuff. He hit the balance last week, not so much today…
Four out of five sounded shit last week and no change this
One more time….
Good recording act, not to be taken seriously as “live performers”.
His voice isn't shot. He just does this shit and has done for ages.
Only surprise is he hasn't changed the lyrics to be edgy yet. I guess he even bottles the act at Glastonbury.
Funniest thing was Liam calling him out on it ages ago. "He dresses like a Teddy boy and pretends, but does he go home to his mum dressed like that?"

Yeah sang the same, but has for a few years now so wasn't a surprise.
Chem Bros is just a DJ set though. Wouldn't be pushed by that. Seeing them live is an experience though!
Yep, this has been years in the making, nothing new at all, it all started with the Shadow Puppets.
He cancelled their Dublin gig earlier this week with laryngitis, hence the comments about his voice being shot. But it's actually improving as he goes.
Yep same. Had no idea they’ve changed their sound so much. Cover band is a good way to describe it.
Will be seeing them for the 2nd time in Dublin later this year
I really am enjoying this set. Am gutted they cancelled on Tuesday. Ruined my week
hoping blur make up for it tomorrow

TBF, he's probably well off his tits right now, but still, it's his style these days.
Yeah, but he isn't struggling here.
This is the style he does, but he's nailing it for what it is.
The first Shadow Puppets album isn't like this at all
None of these songs are "mirrrroooorrrrballllll!!!" Level though.
I know, but that's when this crooning style started to creep it's way into the Arctics.
Also the first Shadow album was great, loved it.
AM always make me think of a stand up comedian thats got a tight hour of material, but they've been booked for 2 hours
Sad seeing a band ruining their own great songs. Still the crowd seem to be enjoying it though.
Love the Arctics, but the gig feels like it's on 0.5 speed.
Their performance is just lacking a lot of energy. Sounds like they’ve lost the crowd a bit.
Wow. It's impressive how aggressively ignorant you're being. I saw Daft Punk live in 97. It's one of the best gigs I've ever been to. They put on an amazing show and worked the crowd expertly.
They don't just hit play on a playlist ffs.

They don't look interested in playing their old songs.
The band look bored playing like this too, would love to know how they truly feel about it.
Not surprised people aren't getting on with the AM set. Even before their sound changed I never thought they were a particularly good live act, the change in sound made them less so again. And I say that preferring at least one of their two most recent albums over most of the ones before that, so it's not like I'm not on board generally.
