I’ve tried to like The Smiths time and time again, I really have (Marr & Rourke were just wonderful together) but I just can’t get past Mozza’s vocals and this is from a bloke who learnt to like Geddy Lee’s voice. However, Mr Astley seems to have solved my dilemma. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's always been a bit wobbly but she can get away with it to a point I think The band is killing it on Rapture 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Not bass related, but how many of the singers' voices sound absolutely knackered? Even the younger artists - I expected it from Axl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddster Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Some really nice soul/funk bass playing with Candi Station now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Lizzo's set is well worth a watch on iplayer especially for anyone who likes a bit of 70s soul/funk. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was great, band were super tight too. The biggest crowd for any one artist at that point (I have a feeling ol' Reg might top that though) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watched Blondie, telephone was dodgy but I'd rather have them there a bit the worse for age than not at all Edited June 25, 2023 by PaulWarning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezzaboy Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Just watched the Pretenders on the i player and really enjoyed it. Their recent single, Let the sun come in was great and Johnny Marr is the coolest guy in music. Sod playing bass on that gig, as you look to your right there is Macca watching you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGBrown Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Elton is rocking this. Great guitarist. Another MM 5 string on show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno1981 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 How much better is Elton’s sound than GNR? That stingray is slicing through the mix wonderfully. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mep Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Elton kicking off in style with a great band. First Stingray I've seen, and he's wearing a hat too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDaBass Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Great sound for Elton's set and Matt Bissonette bass sound is stunning. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 So far this is the highlight of this year's festival, mix sounds good too. Stingray 5 is cutting through in every octave. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I don't like Elton John and his voice is still very "I'm Dill Danding" ( I understood about three words in The beach is Back), but he is putting on a good show for those who like him and the band are great. Guitarist is superb I didn't know Clinton Baptiste could play guitar), as is the bassist. The sound is so much better than GnR and Blondie got.

steantval Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Currently watching Van Der Valk on ITV, just flicked over to Elton during an advert, just caught a small bit of Benny and the Jets, what a great band with a cracking bass sound, will be watching it later on catch up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Whatever the sound crew have done with the bass should be set for every Glastonbury gig forever, every band must use a Stingray and never touch the dials again! First time ever heard what the bassist is playing. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
