    About to watch Blondie at Glasto. Not sure how this will go.......

    It's almost like we need a new, strong, interesting female artist to step up.....

    Oh.

    Brilliant band.

    EDIT - never really thought about how much Republica took after Blondie. Seems really obvious to me now.

    DOUBLE EDIT - others please feel free to put me and FLT on ignore whilst we have an 80s/90s wallow.

    TRIPLE EDIT - don't leave me hanging here FLT!

    QUADRUPLE EDIT - **** you FLT, **** you....!

    Going to have a listen/watch!

    And here it is!!!!!

    Maria was co-written/produced by a guy called Craig Leon who we had a meeting for Fable with, and very nearly worked with him on, fact fans.

    I know this is probably a stupid question, but why is the drummer behind sheets of what looks like flexiglass? I don't think I have ever seen that before.

    Stops the drums bleeding into the other mics being used around the stage.

    Speaking of ageing performers, where's Godders? I don't like it when he has absences of over 2 days.

    Cheers, like I say, don't think I have noticed it before - maybe it's time I got my eyes checked <laugh>

    I'm liking the sign language people on stage, nice touch.

    They don't normally have them in fairness - am quite surprised to see it, and most drummers hate it (suspect it may be a Debbie request).

    I really wanted to see the signer during the "pain in the ass" line, but sadly not.....
