MoonBassAlpha Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Just tuned in. Sam Fender. Crowd love a good singalong. Quite dull musically. Anyone spotted anything good yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveXFR Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I looked through the lineup. Over 300 bands and I found four I'd want to watch. Bland seems to be the theme this year. Musical beige. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 St. Vincent. That's more like it. Is that a B.C. Rich bass? Looks and sounds cool! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Not watched any yet, but it’s probably the best line-up I’ve seen for a few years, nothing bland, strong headliners, music for allllll types of people. Which is very much welcomed. Si Edited June 24, 2022 by Sibob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A definite lack of noisy music with Pigs x7 providing the only heavier music and Idles as the only other noisy. band. Of course that is just my opinion.

alexa3020 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Idles we’re good st Vincent we’re great - bass player is killing it!

Leonard Smalls Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Just enjoyed Idles... St Vincent just a bit dull, Robert Plant much more dull... Wet Leg ok for Their Song, Little Simz, vox far too loud - backing barely noticeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Really enjoyed Robert Plant & Alison Krauss. It was cool to see JMJ playing a blue mustang with St Vincent—I think it was one of his signature ones rather than his '67. Watching Billie Eilish currently & Fineas was playing a mustang bass a few songs ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohn Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Yeah Plant and Krauss were good. Jesus and Mary Chain best I've seen tonight. Little Simz bass player is great, but I just can't get on with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steantval Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Quite enjoyed Crowded House, the only bit that spoilt it for me was having that young kid on the stage, why ? Some tasty bass work by Nick Seymour. Edited June 24, 2022 by steantval 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some tasty bass work by Nick Seymour. My thoughts exactly. Didn’t realise how much Nick played up the dusty end. Great band though, and (young kid aside) thought they came over really well. Caught a bit of St Vincent and will watch more on iPlayer over the weekend. Agree with above comments about the bassist too, sounded excellent. Watched Billie Eilish, not my thing particularly but the crowd loved her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drTStingray Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) Of what I saw, Blossoms were a stand out - bass player used a Rickenbacker most of the time. Fender Jazz when they did the Spice Girls song with Mel C and Charlemagne at the end (and it wasn’t as audible as the Rick which had sounded really good). Sigrid was really good as well.

Pinball Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 I watched a bit last night. I live pretty close but I have to say big festivals aren't the way I like to enjoy music. I don't want to watch stick people in the distance or wander around looking for stuff. Would love to play it obviously. I missed some of the highlights above so will try and seek em out. My verdict so far as a TV viewer is that it was more interesting watching Eurovision with the wife. The effects and presentation on that were brilliant in comparison.

Supernaut Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 I would go for Turnstile alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Only seen Plant and Krauss so far. Fabulous set, great playing, but thought they would have worked far better on a smaller stage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSpace Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Another recommendation from me for Idles, worth a watch on iPlayer if you like it loud and edgey. I missed Crowded House, I'll try and watch on iPlayer later. Looking forward to McCartney. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
