As opposed to Stormzy? Know where I'd rather be......second half of the set will be all the big hits
Was just gonna say the same......looks amazing and playing all the hits. One of my all time fave bands but oh my, Robert Smith has changed a tad since I saw them in the 80’s.
Where you seeing them mate ?
How do they change the mood from this brilliantly dark stuff to 'It's Friday I'm in Love'?
That’s The Cure though, isn’t it ?
Lovesong was always a track I had on loop when I was breaking up with an ex
I'm not a Stormzy fan - however for a rapper to take the stage and have the crowd eating out of his hand is something to be admired.
But offer me a ticket for The Cure or Stormzy….and it's the Crawley Boys every time

Bellahouston Park in Glasgow - part of the Summer Sessions up here, fab support too - Mogwai and Twilight Sad. Then Foo Fighters the following night!!
It'll be their first gig in Scotland for 27 years. Never thought we'd see them so flew down to London a couple of years ago to see them at Wembley, and now they're playing just down the road!!
Flags at festivals should be banned.....and people sitting on others shoulders should be shot.
It's a rollercoaster - loving the new material.
I first heard Mogwai when they did Hungryface, the theme for ‘Les Revenants’.....amazing piece of music that still brings me up in goosebumps.
Sounds a great gig
They banned flags from festivals up here.....but not because of the annoyance factor, people were fighting with them once they were tanked up on Buckfast
seen some serious fights at T in the Park over the years, one of the reasons it's been disbanded (the last T in the Park there were 2 murders - I think, and some overdoses too)
Loved that program - excellent, eerie soundtrack.
Love the Cure, but have to agree with Strolls and Stainsey it’s an odd choice to close the weekend. I presume the Glastonbury demographic is pretty ancient, like me.
Robert Smith is in fine voice though and the sound in the telly is pretty good, unlike for most of the other sets I’ve seen so far. Actually this is brilliant stuff.
Just turned on, have they played my old favourite ‘A Forest’ yet?

Not yet mate.....no doubt they will soon.
To be honest, and of course I’m biased, but I don’t think it’s a bad headliner. If you look at some of the headliners at festivals this year they’ve been pretty **** (George Ezra at IOW ??)
In another note G, fancy coming to see the Alabama 3 at Brixton in December ? I’m gonna go with my two lads and I’m expecting a few tears to be shed for the Rev when they play ‘Peace in the Valley’
Absolutely this.....I’m actually getting pretty ‘effing emotional.
You are 100% on mate, cheers.
And on this performance the Cure should have headlined Woodstock and the original IOW festival. Outstanding.
Just watched Thom York’s short Animi, now I am a Radiohead/ Thom York fan, but what a load of pretentious and time wasting tosh. Weird worked in the eighties and that’s where the choreography and sound should have been left. I’m afraid Thom looked like an old bloke trying to look still relevant and he doesn't need to.
What a ****ing brilliant set - Robert Smith is a top-notch performer. His voice is faultless - the sound of the whole band is epic.
