I was right then! 😄 I remember the wind picking up when the Foos were on and their sound blowing about the place. And Nate Mendel playing one of those funny old Ampeg basses.

Oh dear 😕 Yep, playing well but I wish they’d sort the volume of the lead vocals, ok he’s not that good anymore but in some places he can hardly be heard.

NancyJohnson Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I'm not a fan of festivals in general and I wouldn't go to Glastonbury even if it was free and had all-access passes. My wife has been dipping in (and mainly out) since early afternoon. She asked who Generation Sex were. I didn't actually know they were playing. Bejeebus. Words fail me. There's a Guns 'n Roses tribute band on at the moment. The bloke playing Axl looks like an overweight accountant. The Slash bloke looks nothing like Slash bloke I remember. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingrayPete1977 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Why don't bands like GnR just smash out all the hits? That's ten minutes of pointless jam night noodling followed by something we've never heard before. If it's not your gig just play your hits. For a master class see Queen at live aid.

I must be missing the point, seems like a big bloke with no vest on shouting dreary lyrics over three chords then letting the audience sing them for him. But they loved him, so my opinion is worth zilch! Yes, i think you're missing something here. He's loosing his voice, taking a 'stress' break and could barely sing the last number. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jun/24/lewis-capaldi-at-glastonbury-review 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cetera Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Duff is still super solid on the bass though. Nice to have a mix where you can hear the bass clearly too... 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who's going to drum for Dave Grohl has to be really good. I thought Daves daughter gave a pretty solid performance as well. I thought she was going to 5hit herself , twitching with the ‘in ears’ on the harmonies, but found her feet at the end when on her own , then they couldn’t stop her 😂 but what a craic to play to that crowd duetting with your daughter , dream stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 For 59 (same age as me), Duff looks in great shape and is playing well. Slash, while sporting a few more chins than when I last saw him (people in glasshouses ...!), is on form too. Shame about Axl Rose, his voice is totally shot 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
