If yous are on about Dua Lipa her parents are refugees from the kosovo crisis.

She's mates with Lorik Cana.

She done a promo for fifa years ago, they asked who she supported and she said Spurs?!?!?! And the lads


Edit. Sorry seen your talking about someone else

Good info mate, I was just guessing about the Albanian connection tbh.

Aye class, I've seen them twice I think.

Brilliant live

Never been to Glastonbury but used to go all over to festivals.

Love watching live music.

Once the bairn gets older I'll take him to the match then festivals in the summer.

Nowt better

Dua Lipa miming. Badly.

Where are the next generation of headliners? The bands you see years ahead and just know. Non existent. Idles are about the best, but too much of a blunt instrument.

I am a fountain of useless information

We probably like different music but The Streets are good live and put on a show. They're on tomorrow

What the **** is this ****. You got the Love being decimated by some ****ing clowns.

Wow, the Sugarbabes have bombed. Absolutely terrible.

I've been aware of Dua Lipa, as I assume many have, for quite some time although I never paid her much attention.

So, before I watched her headlining Glastonbury I thought I'd better check her out. I have to say she has absolutely everything except the very basics. She has a good voice, stage presence & performance, beauty, etc. The production, on her music, is absolutely top class, the range of instruments astounding and the musicians around her are totally professional ...

... but, for me, there's no soul and I don't mean in a 'soul music' way. There's nothing I haven't heard before, she just does it better than most, she's a pop singer.

I've even read the lyrics to her top songs which have lots on interesting words and phrases ...

... sadly, for me, they don't add up to much more than the title.

I'll watch tonight and hope i'm wrong.

It sounds like music exclusively made to play echo through empty ailes in supermarkets.

Rotten stuff.

I must admit when I saw them I said they’ve “ blown up” a bit!

 

[ChunkFTM]

LCD Soundsystem, idles and Fontaines yesterday smashed it out the park. All superb.

 

[One footed wonder]

Saw a lad wearing the 92 cup final shirt in the VIP viewing area to the left of the stage during Bombay bicycle club set….it was during the song when Damon Albarn was on stage with them.

The streets will be mint. Seen them at glasto previously. Went by myself when all my mates went to see Beyonce. Was epic. Sunday night IIRC. Was like death on the Monday morning. Ended up on the session with a fellow streets fan who I discovered was a MLF from Hetton.

I noticed him as well. There are usually a few safc flags in the crowd as well

I'd have felt sorry for them if they hadn't have been so enthralled with themselves in the cringy post-show interview.

They were fantasising about who they could collaborate with ...

... I'd suggest a choreographer, a stylist and a vocal coach

Class. Been into them since day dot. Think I was 14 when the first album came out and loved them since.

Just before Skinner reformed them he done a dj set in independent, which was class. He was posting on insta of him in Blandford street

First two albums were great.
