???? Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Got beers in the fridge, plenty of bog paper (and not a baby wipe in site), TV and Radio both working well and the showers mine all weekend, subject to shoving the kids out of the way. Slight pain the Stones aren't allowing all their set to be televised but I AM READY.

Otta Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Much as I love the stones' music, and think that Keef IS Rock N' Roll, their attitude about airing their set is exactly what is shitty about them. They struck a deal with the beeb, which no doubt involves a rather big pay off!Like they feckin need it!!!

MrBen Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 They spun it as wanting to "save the last half our for the fans" but that's bollocks because when you're there you don't give a monkeys who is watching it. A purely commercial decision. The thing is most other big names who "get it" will compromise for Glastonbury specifically.....and benefit from all the good will that spins off that.My pal who lost his legs in a bike accident was a regular and due to go this weekend. Wheelchairs don't work in the mud so I've suggested an At Home itinerary which will see me head to his for tomorrow night with beers, some vintage rye whisky, and some smokey pulled pork that I have been slow cooking for past 10 hrs. That, some festival smokes and the proper toilet and we're all set.

MrBen Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 What always gets me is how one act is great if you're there but looks crap on the telly OR vice versa. I'm not a fan but the Artic Monkeys last headline was $hit if you were there. They had no volume, even close to the stage. It was almost like they were playing through the monitors. But it looked decent on the BBC coverage later and journos watching on the telly raved.By contrast not even the amazing you tube footage of Bowies 2000 headline captures just what it was like to be there with the sun setting, thin plumes of smoke drifting across the Shire, electric atmosphere and and a huge but super friendly stoned crowd......I'm drifting........

*Bob* Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 The Stones have never really run on goodwill though - or needed to benefit from it. I'm feel both mild irritation by their position on this one - and begrudging respec'. In the words of Creme Brulee, 'it's a shit business' - and power to any artist who can call the shots in such ways. IWill no doubt check 'em out. I've seen more bands at Glastonbury on telly in the last few years of not going than I ever did in the fifteen years of attendance.

HonaloochieB Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I gather Mick is concerned about the weather, sound problems etc. According to this week's NME his position is/was that the deal was for a live concert, not a live or any other TV broadcast. He's mentioned U2's 2011 rain-washed, sound-problemed appearance, and I'm supposing is concerned that anything broadcast is out there in perpetuity.Or however tuity lasts I suppose.
