Still, he didn't "really mean it". 

Even  though I sympathise with Palestinian cause I do have a problem with chants like "'Death to The IDF". However why is everyone focusing on 1 bloody act out 100s which was a bit controversial and one guy out of 200,000 people wearing I guess an IRA supporting balaclava.

Get a grip FFS. 

It's the precedent that has been set.

There wouldn't be the outrage there is, but there are people currently in prison for far, far less. That's the problem.

"borderline a nazi salute"?  That's nonsense - now you're just making stuff up.

There's a lot more to it than the bits they show on the BBC.

It sells out long before anyone knows who is playing. I am reliably informed that the vast majority of punters go there now purely because they like the event. Many will choose a handful of acts to see out of the hundreds and hundreds there but some hardly see any. A few of the people my son was there with saw Biffy and that was it!

Seems to me that the music is really secondary to the event itself. It's a bit of an outlier in this respect.

 

I agree with most of that but I wouldn't say the music is secondary. Generally it's quite varied in it;s lione up and appeals to a wide age group. Watching live music in a crowd as a shared experience is great.

Only an absolute cretin like Vexed would say all the line up was abysmal. 

The feedback I get is very much that of a bunch of early 20 somethings who are largely focussed on the multi-day party aspect of the whole thing. With an audience as large as Glastonbury's, there must be a wide range of reasons for people going.

See O'Briens trying to play it down by suggesting the outrage is pretend whilst simultaneously never being against Lucy Connolly's sentence. Geezer's not the full ticket, I swear.

No, what he did was a lot more serious than what Lucy Connolly said. Inciting violence to kill all of the IDF (Israeli people) openly at a popular Public event aimed at a mass crowd/worldwide audience to join in with, but the difference here is 2Bob doesn't retract his statements at all, in fact double downs on it. Whereas Connolly did delete hers soon after and regretted posting it which was seen by a lot less of an audience in any case.

2Bob should be banged up for his blatant act of encouraging mass violence, as is Freedom of Speech only being allowed for 1 but not for others in society and it is all very serious.

The more I bother to think about it, the more it's obvious what a giant cock up the BBC made.

They surely would have had discussions about what would happen if one of the many LOOK AT ME bands did something to gain attention to themselves by doing something like this.

Then they surely would have had discissions about how the BBC would react when they did.

I'd be suggesting someone should be fired if I bothered to pay for the licence.

There are lots of different acts on all the smaller stages & in various tents
Obviously tv concentrates on the bigger stages & names

Yup- people go for the event over anything else. Some because they just love it, and some insufferable posers because it's 'cool' to be seen there and to put a load of shit on instagram. Very rare any artist is confirmed before the tickets go on sale.

The music is just as for mass/broad appeal and diversity as much as it can possibly be and is all painfully appropriated by the upper and middle classes as their nice safe suburban hip 'Mecca'. Personally barely any of it interests me and I get put off by the BBC's embarrassing blanket coverage and wanking themselves dry over every single act, who apparently all have played the greatest music ever heard by human ears. I might watch 1-2 of them on iPlayer after it's over but mostly it's stuff I'd be bored out of my mind standing in a field watching and as it costs about £400 to boot, fuck that. I'd rather go to Spain for a week.

Obviously these things are mainly aimed at the aforementioned gen z cunts but there used to be a big of a mix of people and acts which is what made it an interesting fun place to be. 
Now one album and some woke political views will get you a headline spot. Emily Eavis is the festival equivalent of AIDS. Let's hope the pneumonia kicks in quickly. 

Is Neil Young abysmal? I think you should shut up as you are embarrassing yourself. 

Yep. Fucking rubbish. Like your fucking opinion. Dim cսnt. 

crusties love a losing side

 

Neil young made me laugh out loud. hilarious stuff.

Neil Young is GOOD. 

I like Neil Young, there, I said it.

Caught up on The Prodigy last night, not for me.

Leeroy did the right thing leaving in 2000

Some unbelievable dance tunes in the 90's but the slow cross over to Gung/Punk/Guitar heavy music killed. Loved Keith Flint, but he was fucking awful singing live. 

Go back to "Everybody in the place" and 2 dancers.

But Neil Young is abysmal. A couple of decent tunes 60 years ago and since then dozens of albums-worth of 'experimental' din

He's also a hypocritical, ego-maniac, lefty cսnt.

One of the biggest beneficiaries of emperor's new clothes syndrome ever.
