    I agree, not often on my playlist but totally unique and some unworldly tunes.

    He must've been unsignable when he started ...

    ... weird voice, weird songs, hard to look at, unpleasant nature and no dress sense.

    But strangely compelling.

    So far my picks have been

    1. franz Ferdinand (seen em loads so I’m biased)
    2. Wet leg (the sheer energy of that lead singer !)
    3. John Fogerty (love CCR TO BITS)
    4. Amyl and the sniffers
    5. (Don’t hate me for this) Jade
    6. Pulp
    7. Busta Rhymez
    8. 1975 - I wanted to hate them I really did
    I need to watch some of the others still but feel free to recommend

    I really enjoyed Amy L and The Sniffers for some daft, class fun.

    Hoping for Rocking in the free world and Powderfinger, that would make Neil Young's set for me.

    They did a lullaby version of blue weekend and I’ve fallen asleep many a time to this. It’s just lovely

    I'm loving the 'stoned hillbillies on a porch' set up ...

    ... any number of people could show up for an encore :emoticon-0103-cool:

    It all feels a bit odd to me. Was Glastonbury ever meant to be mostly about acts that were popular 20 or many more year ago?
